Yet had the Yank defenders per-

as their rivals, that one run would
have sufficed. ...
Mike McNally, the sensational
third baseman of the Yankees, was
forced out of the game by an in
jury to his throwing arm after he
had hit in the lone run his team
acquired, and ]. Franklin Baker, one
time reigning monarch of the home
run clouters. played at his old posi-
ton from the third inning on and
poled out two Of the three singles
for which Douglas was touched aft
er the Yanks third turn at bat.
Largely for want of sharp play
in the outfield to hold safe drives
to singles, four of the Giants six
hits went for two-base hits. Ban
croft punched the first of these to
left center after Burns flied out iii
the opening inning, and advanced
to third after Miller bagged
Frisch's long fly to center. But
Mays contributed fielding gem by
knocking down Young's sharp bid
for hit through, the box and got
his man at first.
Douglas Improves.
Douglas started inauspiciously,
but improved as the tussle wore on.

Rawlings Spears Drive.
After the force out on McNally
in the Yanks scoring inning, Mays
lined one towards right field as

lings crouched, then stretching his
full length leaped into the air and
brought down the scorching drive.
1t was the feature play of the day
and by far the flashiest Of the series
to date.
Fewster opened the Yank's third
with hit past Frisch, but Emil
Meusel cut him down at second try

daring was costly for Peck followed
with a looping hit behind short field
