victory for the home players.
Alexander was plastercd for ten hits
before he was taken out in the eighth
the fouth he made the fatal mistake
of "grooving' a ball for Ross Young
after two strikes had been called on
the batter, and Young promptly
clinched the decision by driving out a
three Dagger to the deepest corner
of right field, scoring two runs
These two taliies gave the Giants
the lead and proved just enough to
win, although Young scored from third
shortly afterward on a single by Paw
lings. Sergeant Jim York pitched the
eighth inning for the Cubs and was
found for two more hits, but no fur
Their scoring resulted.
Perhaps the most encouraging fea-
ture of the game was the return to
his usual form of Jess Barnes, who had
been rather ineffective in many pre-
vious attempts. With the exception
of the third inning, when the Cubs
punched three hits, two Of which were
hunts, and scored their two runs, the
pitching of Barnes might be termed
brilliant
Hollocher's Single Nullificd
The visitors came dangerously near
scoring in the first inning, but there
after, excluding the fourth, only three
batters faced Barnes in each of the
other seven innings. Hollocher con-
nected for the only hit after the
fourth, but Terry, the next batter, i'm
mediatelv hit into double play.
The Giants put the same fiery dash
into their attack that characterized their
playing in the recent series with the
Pirates, and their work on the defense
was of the same high order. Excepting
an excusable error by Rawlings in the
first inning, his mates accorded Barnes
alright support.
Some fife fielding by Frank Frisch
saved Barnes from getting off to a poor
start in the first inning. Hollocher, the
first batter, was safe when Rawlings
fumbled his wicked grounder. Terry fol-
lowed with a bounder to Frisch, and the
latter nailed Holocher at second with
fine throw to Rawlings. Twombly drove
a single to right, sending Terry to third,
but Frsch made great stop of Deals
roller and cut down Terry at the plate.
Barber then rolled one down to Kelly
for the third out.
Frisch Nailed at Plate
Bancroft and Frisch co0perated in
putting the Giants in the lead in their
half of the first inning, but the home
Siub tiiSHt nave scored TWO runs instead
OF one we're it not for some reckless
base running on the part of the Ford
ham Flash With one out Bancroft
poked single to right and Frisch fol-
lowed with a wicked smash to the ex-
IRENE corner of the same field
Bancroft easily completed the circuit
on the wallop, but when Frisch, tearing
around the bases at top speed, refused
to heed Cozy Dolan's frantic efforts to
stop him at third base, he was nailed
at the plate, despite poor relay from
the outtieid
Barnes went along very nicely until
the fourth, when the Cubs came from
behind and practically hunted themselves
into the lead. Twombly beat out bunt
toward first base, and Deal followed
suit. Both runners advanced when
barnes tossed out Barber on another
bunt. Maisel came through with sharp
single to left, scoring Twombly and
Deal. Maisel took second on the throw
to the plate, but was caught at third
on orimos's grounder to Bancroft. The
rally ended abruptly at this point, as
GrImes was out stealing
he Giants wasted little time in re-
