of the Yankee staff-must hold off
the attack of the Giants in the
eighth contest of the series today or
nightfall will find the Giants the
champions of the world. The Giants
want one and the American leaguers
need two games.
II will give the Giants all l have"
said Hoyt as he came from the club
house, "and all / ask is few runs"
The Giants believe today that the
momentum of the last two wins will
carry them through to final victory.
II probably will use Nehf," said
Manager McGraw, but may switch
to Sallee or Shea"
The Giants now are in position TO
hold Barnes and Douglas in reserve
for tomorrow's contest, if the tables
are turned today.
The weather was clear and there
was cutting wind from the north
west. Noontime found only scat
