New-York tribune., 1920-07-29

fourth place in the league standing
half behind the Pirates in third posi-
1t was an exciting contest from start
to finish and it was replete with SEN
sational plays. First one team took the
lead and then the other until Young's
single to center in the fourteenth sent
Burns home with the winning run
after the latter had rached second
on his own single and Bancroft's sacri
flee.
McGraw used three OF his best pitch
ers to gain the decision. but it was
we'll worth the price. Shufffin' Phil
Douglas started on the mound and went
along very we'll until the eighth inning,
when the Cards bumped him rather
severely and caused him to retire under
a barrage of hits, Southpaw Rube
Benton was sent to the rescue, but he
was removed in favor of a pinch hit
ter in the thirteenth. Ponderous Fred
Toney pitched the final inning and
turned back his opponents in order.
The big Highlander got credit for the
victory.
Schupp Fails to Last
Ferdie Schupp, who pitched against
his former team mates, also gave
a very creditable exhibition until the
eighth, when he suddenly lost his eff
fectiveness and was chased to cover.
Goodwin was then hurled into
the breach, but after Spencer had
greeted him with single, Hickey de-
cided that it was not his day and
Southpaw Bill Sherdell relieved Good
win.
The Cards clinched the game, to
all intents and purposes, in the eighth
inning when they slammed out five
hits for three runs. Stock led off with
q single to right and Janvrin scored
him with a triple to deep left center.
Doc" Lavan followed with another sim
gle to right, scoring Janvrin. Benton
was called in at this point to replace
Douglas and Clemmons welcomed him
with q single to riiht Lavan tried
to take third on the hit but Frisch
made q great play on Youngs throw
to the bag and nailed the runner by
hair.
Clemmons reached second on the play.
Schultz batted for Heathcote and
grounded out to Doyle, but McHenry
came through with a single to left on
which Clemmons Tailed. Schupp ended
the inning by striking out
The Giants came back strong in their
half and staged rafting rally which
netted them three runs and q tie.
Schupp seemed to have considerable
difficult Y in locating the plate and
walked Burns and Bancroft on eight
straight balls. Both advanced on
Youne's .grounder to Fourner and
Frlsch followed with a crashing three
bagger to left center, scoring Burns
and Bancroft. The Fordham Flash
ment later on Kelly's infeld hit to
Stock.
Pitches to One Batter
Schupp was replaced by Goodwin, and
Spencer singled to right, sending Kelly
derricked in favor of Sherdell. Larry
Doyle hoisted fly to Heathcote in
right field, but Kelly was cut down at
the plate in attempting to score after
the catch.
Each side scored a run in the first
inning. After Smith had grounded
out to Frisch, Fourner drew a pass.
Stock flied out to King in center, but
successive singles by Janvrin and
Lavan brought Fournier across.
The Giants lost no time in putting
grounded out to Janvrin, but Bancroft
singled to center. Young walked and
Frisch forced him at second, Bancroft
taking third. Frsch and Bancroft then
executed a double steal the latter
scoring.
Kings home run into the right field
stands put the McGraw outfit in the
lead in the fourth inning, but the
Cards knotted the count in the seventh
on McHenry's single, a stolen base and
another single by Jack Smith.
McCarty Opposes Giants
Lew McCarty, whom the Giants sold
to the Cards on Saturday. made his
first appearance in a game for st. Louis
when he batted for Smith in the
thirteenth inning and drew base on
balls Doug Baird, who was purchased
from the Dodgers on Tuesday, also
made his debut as Giant in the same
inning He was sent in to hit for Ben
ton and struck out.
Frisch played great game in the
field and was also prominent with his
bat Sherdel started to walk the Ford
ham Flash purposely in the twelfth,
with Bancroft on second base, but the
ST. Louis infelders persuaded the
twrler to pitch to him, and the young
ster flied out to center
