New-York tribune., 1920-08-15

nephew to Big Bill Lange, was at bat.
Al Mamaux, because of his speed, had
been called in to relieve Clarence Nit
chell. He made heave to Kruger
with moist and clammy pill. A post
mortem verdict is that Kruger should
have wiped the pill on his trousers
But he did not. He heaved the ball
carelessly and it hit the ground before
-Mamaux and skidded. Bancroft dashed
across the plate with the winning run.
A Stirring Melodrama
This made something Of an anti-cli-
max to one of the most stirring melo-
dramas ever staged on the lot that is
devoted to the great national outdoor
drama. The game was a tense one and
the emotions of the inmates of the
rival boroughs were constantly run
ning amuck. Judging from what hap>
pened there yesterday the scientist
who said that the baseball fan was
just nut uttered a bound
encyclopedia.
When Long George Kelly tied the
score for the Giants in the sixth with
a home run to the left-feld bleacher5
the Giant rooters unanimously tossed
Big Ed konetchy, the bouncing Bohe-
mian, tied it in the ninth with home
run into the same place all of the hats
of Flatbush went hurtling into the
i1eld. Henry Fabian and his corps of
halvesters were somewhat Handicapped
by the lack of modern machinery to
bring in the crop. They used wheel
barrows. Henry has applied for
tractor harvester.
During the truculent afternoon
Johnny Evcrs, acting field marshal for
twice. the second time being when he
was found lurking in corner of the
dugout after being once banished by
Bill Klein. Ross Young was banished
for hurling his bat into the air and
then IN fit of peevishness shaking
Old Bill KLEIN by the shoulders. Beauty
Bancroft was chased from the coach
ing lire for squawking sympathetically.
The game started like a pitchers
duel between Art Nehf, the ex-Brave,
and Reuben MarQuard, late champion
deck swabber of the U. S. n, but both
OF the left-handers started to crack.
Nehf started to go first and the Rube
went badly after Umpire Bill KLEIN
made him change his glove under sus-
plclon that he had little piece of
emery or other contraband in the orig
maj glove.
kilduff Starts Trouble
The Flatbush Fusilliers started their
first drive in the cixth Little Peterkin
kildutf, the pride of the Omaha stock
yards, started it with a two-basc hit
that knocked Frisch lose from his pins
ana rolled into left field. Krueger
poled double to left, and Peterkin
scored. Marquard laid down a sacri-
fee bunt to Frsch. Olson slashcd
single to center and Kruger scored.
Johnston lifted fly to center, and Oh
son went to second. Bernie Neis drove
a double along the left field line, and
Mr.: Ivan Ivory Olson scored.
This brought a flock of Flatbush
Kellys into the field, and even before
Henry Fabians farm hands could stack
the crop the Giants started come
back. Burns got a base on balls and
went Iii at center after Pep Youngs
peevishness, beat a hit to Johnston
Frlsch lifted one to center.
That brought up Long George Kelly,
who had Queered the Kellys and the
Langes, to whom the Kellys are related,
by being caught off first in the fifth
inning. Long George at that time was
sleeping when Rube MarQuard made
quick pass to Konetchy. Long George
started to fall back to the bag, but was
delayed by his altitude in getting back
doped the yacht race handicaps can
explain how it would take a long player
IKE Kelly longer to reach the ground
than an ordinary player.
Long George was out to redeem the
kellys and the Langes and he did He
poled home run into the left field
hieachers into the midst of part of the
population of the other side of the
bridge and the score was tied
Shutfiin' Phil Douglas was sent in
for the seventh inning to stay the
fiatbush hordcs and he did for the
time being. In the Giant half of the
seventh inning Able Seaman Marquard,
pride OF the mosquito fleet, was shorn
OF his magic glove and began to get
his. Snyder led off with a single to
center and Shuiflin' Phil Dogulas exc
cuted very neat sacrifice
Snyder Shows Amazing Speed
Burns drove a single to left with
such pronounced vohemence that Sny-
der, pulling like a locomotive on the
Efade from Truckce to Summit, scored
all the way from second, while Burns
Went 10 second on the return. Beauty
bancroft punched out d neat single
and Burns scored. By this time the
goras Imported from Flatbush filled
the humid air
There was a hasty coroner's jury
summoned by the Dodgers infeld and
Reuben Marquard was pronounced null
and void for the remainder of the
afternoon. Clarence Mitchell relieved
hlm and passed Herbert Spencer, the
Glant philosopher. Frisch bounced a
single TO center and Bancroft scored.
Kelly ended the drive by slappng one
into double play
After that the Manhattanites piled
up straw hats with prodical reckless
ness while the fans OF Fatbush sat
moodily grounching in the gathering
gloom. Henry Fabian dripped as he
went on with the harvesting. But the
Dodgers were not yet entirely defunct
not by jugful of the prohibition
beverage.
Bad Bill Lamar. the ex-Yank, slapped
hit between third and short. Frisch
took 1t, but too late to make the throw.
Wheat forced Lamar. Myers shot a hit
past Long George Kelly. Then up
stepped Big Ed Konetchy, the only
bohemian in the great American pas
time. Big Ed pasted one for Bohemia
and it went into the left field stands
for home run and the favorite melo-
dramatic situation-ticd in the ninth
The few remaining hats OF the in
mates Of Flatbush were cast in.o the
stacks that Henry Fabian was piling
up. 1t Looked then as though the see
ond skirmish of the Battle OF the Eor-
oughs would eventually be halted by
