third. Spencer then inserted his
single to center and Kelly raced across
the plate after Frisch with the winning
Iun.

was dramatic ending, and was an
other example of the Giants rejuve-
mated spirit.
Luque had previously been going
along very nicely and he really de-
served the decision. He had the local
players virtually eating out of his
hands until the terrible crash came in
the NINTH He frightened up in the
and allowed his opponents only five
scattered hits. Young and Frisch
singled in succession in the fourth but

single to center, on which Groh tailed

another bunt to Barnes and the latter
could have easily thrown out Rath at
third. but instead he tossed out
Roush at first

Douglas made his appearance on the
mound. Duncan smashed line drive
to Burns, and the Giants left fielder
made fine catch and doubled up Rath
at the plate as he attempted to score
after the catch, thereby putting an
abrupt end to the uprising.

the fifth, and it was in this inning that
the Reds scored their second run.

balls and advanced to second on Nea!es

brought the inning to close by
tanning Rath. The Reds got to Doug

Giants Fail in Pinches
The Giants had several fine oppor-
tunities to tie the score early IN the
contest, but they were unable to come
through with the necessary hlts. Atter

casion and struck out ., :.

second hit single to right, but trish
lifted the first ball pitched to Rousch
in center Kelly then slammed line
drive toward right center, but Rath
leaped up, made a fine catch and

tude groaned. Luque then. held the
Giants in complete subjection until the
bombardment started in the ninth.

played brilliantly in the field. In the
third inning he made wonderful catch
of Luque's terrific smash. The Ford
ham Flash was given an assist on the
play, however, as the runner was not
called out until Frisch had tossed the
ball to Kelly. In the fifth Roush at
tempted to sacrifice, with Daubert or
first, but Frisch pounced on the ball, ane
his throw forced Daubert at second.
