I&y heavy sticking in the second inning.
lSlt was Carl Weilman's only bad frame.
But he was literally supported through
put, visiting infelders and outfielders,
POO. turning many a budding base hit
into an out. The Yankees, too, were
ison their toes every minute. 1t was
lone of their good days. They looked
= million dollars from every angle.
IsThey showed. that of which they are
E5capable when in the proper mood. The
Ekind Of baseball displayed yesterday
EW carried through to the end of the
month would assure q pennant beyond
Tpsradventure.
III Tailenders Busy
III Wenman was swept off his feet in
fthe second inning by the tail end Of
EMuggins's batting order. Del Pratt,
:Iwho stood out like Gibraltar against
|She landscape, started the tall south
paw on the road to ruin with the first
|Ecf his two doubles. Del had brace
|Iof two-ply soaks, as we'll as a clean
|ningle in four times at bat. He would
fhavs had three doubles but for
wonderful stop by Williams Of a long
Hit to left center.
N Pratt was first up in the second in
lining. He pushed fast ball into right
Eaeld territory, which ratified off the
wall and caromed outside Tobin, who,
lnevertheless, made a rapid recovery
aud held the Yankee second sacker to
|twc bases. Duffy Lewis dumped neat
fsaerifice toward the box. Weilman
played the bunt splendidly, but he had
me chance for play on Pratt, who
went into third standing up.
u Then came the Wonderful Wop Ping
|crashed one far afeld between the feet
4 jeeobson and Tobin. and before the
pellet could be returned to the inaeld
|Shs perspiring riveter had safely nego-
HIkiated third with an unnecessary hook
H|slide. This triple scored Pratt, of
aIeourse. Muddy Ruel chased Jacobson
3|sway back for a powerful fly. Bodie
llfolled home after the catch. It was
3le sacrifice of the rarest vintage, so
certain that no play was made for
3IRodie at the plate.
Id Ruel singled through Smith and got
blown to second when SEVERED, think
ling the second strike on Mays was the
Third one foolishly rolled the ball into
1.-THE inield. Nothing came of the
III bpner," as Mays waited to Williams.
u The Yanks had several other excel
ent opportunities. but each time
Slapped short just as they seemed to
have Weilman on the trapped edge.
skTake the third inning. Peckinpaugh,
sfarst up. got life on Smiths low
akhrow. Pipp hunted, but Smith re-
deemed himself with a lightning stab
l3ef the roller and a snap throw to
|tsedecn that forced out Peck; Meusel
Sbelted wickedly to left field. but he
|Iwas. doubled with Pratt when Del hit
'ibhafply to Gedeon.
Il Tobin Nabs Lewis's Clout
II Duffy Lewis, first up in the fourth,
HdYew q base on balls. Gerber threw
HUT Bodie, Ward flied to Jacobson and
aBRuel fouled to SEVERED. Pipp walled
lin the fifth, but two were out, and he
Edown on his end Of hit-and-run play.
Wratt's second doublo was lusty wal
HOP to center field that came with only
lone out in the sixth. Tobin chased
away back s..nost to the exit for a
powerful line drive from the bat of
Lewis. N.usel easily advanced to third
BITTER we catch. Bodie was passed, but
klWards best was an easy fly for ia
zbsbson.
4ae Yankees went out in order in
the seventh, due principally to a high
BANDED burglary on the part Of Jacob
son. This young man raced away back
knto right center for drive Oft Muddy
HRuel that had every earmark Of an
z4xtra-base safety. Weilman put on
Everything he had for Mays and famed
him. Peck Inpaugh popped to Gerber.
New York punched two hits in the
ninth. but faulty base running on the
The part Of somebody else gummed the
swosks. and the blows went to seed.
AFTER Pipp had been called out on
Sstrikes Meusel cracked one a mile
asseond past Smith. Though the drive
searried like q rife bullet to Williams,
aGsusel attempted to stretch the safety
Ito two bases and was thrown out by
azerty feet.
j Pratt followed with his third hit Of
which Williams made fine stab while
Summing back with the ball. Had the
hit got past this fine. fielder 1t might
have gone for a triple. Lewis hit
4 Wieked1y, but right ut Smith.
& Meanwhile Mays had been pitching
Esueh . gilt edged brand Of ball IS that
(which made him the most valuable
a5set Of the 1919 Yankees. In the first
Sour innings only twelve batters faced
the Minser Of the subway: Not man
fxoaehed first in three innings; Gerber,
fAa lead-oR man and Weilman were
Eboth strike-out victims. Gerber first up
{l5n the fourth drew a pass but Ward
kaods Q nice stop Of Gedeon's wicked
EGxounder and started double play
#ky way Of second.
Jacobson Breaks Ice
Jacobson, fisst up In St. Louis's fifth

.k&ve entertained for q po-hit shutout.
EN Was the cleanest sort Of long
Eeaak1e into left field. Williams popped

$G@tth's wicked welt, tagged second and

39eshle play.
