EXPECT GIANTS
To COME BACK
vehf Likely to Twill for Ma
tionaIs Today. Douglas
Not so Bad

A baseball contest cannot be won
unless a run Is scored. This ac-
counts for the defeat of the New
York Giants in their first game of
the worlds series Chassis at he
Polo Grounds yesterday afternoon.
Phil Douglas. the Giant spitball art
let. cannot be blamed for the defeat,
for he allowed only five hits. The
three runs made by the Yankees
we're scored during his stay on the
mound.
John McGraw. the Giants peer
less leader, figured that his men
would find Il hard to solve the un-
derslung delivery of Carl Mays. and
decided to use Douglas. a twirler
who IL good today and bad tomorrow.
In this way the Giants saved Nehf,
their pest pitcher, and at h same
time found that by scoring a few
runs behind Douglas he is capable
of defeating the Yankees. The Giant
leader, the greatest in baseball. spot
ted the Pittsburgh Pirates a big lead
in the National League race, and beat
them to the line. Whyscan't he re-
peat. spot the Yankees one or two
games. and then go. out and-win the
series?
The little Napoleon outguessed
them all yesterday by starting Doug

say who will twirl today. Fred To-
uey or Art Nehf may be his choice.
waite Hoyt, the schoolboy wonder,
will probably be the choice of Man

test.

the real stars in this game. friscn

one of his safeties went for a triple.
In addition to this he stole a base
and played a corking game at third
base. McNally made two OF MS
teams hits, stole second and nome
and also played a great game at the
hot corner.

Extra Big Hit

A big crowd received the play by

Giants and Yankees in front of the
Evening News Office yesterday af-
ternoon, and a few minutes after
the final score of the contest had
been received the News extra edi-

n hundred and fifty telephone
calls were received in the News
office yesterday afternoon regarding
the progress of the game.

yesterday afternoon 70 receive the
results. comprised possibly the larg-
connected for extra base clouts Bob
results of an annual classic in this
city, this gathering did not display
the pep of a crowd of another year.
The reason for the stiffness may be
due to lack of hitting, for only
twelve hits were collected by the
two teams IN yesterdays game.
1t is known that a big roar would
have been made If Babe" Ruth or
George Kelly had clouted out a four
base hit, but local fans seemingly do
not take to light hitting contests.
There was some cheering yesterday
after it had been announced that
Frisch had hit safely, this an
nouncement on four different occa-
sions. and that McNally and Meusel
connected fod extra base clouts. Bob
Meusel the Yankee ~outielder. lost
credit for his triple for falling TO
touch first base.

Whose job is the easiest?
Always the other fellows, to hear
the average human being tell It.
But Frank Frisch, star third base
man of the New York Giants. is not
an average man.
Third base is generally conceded
to be one of the hardest baseball
positions to play. Star third base
men are are birds.
Yet Frisch says the catcher has
the hardest job on the ball club.
There's no argument to it," he
says.
'"He is on the receiving end of
every ball pitched.
"He must be alert for a bunt
dumped in front of the plate.
"If there are men on bases he
must not only watch his w end
that they do not steal on them, but
must aid the pitcher and basemen
In watching the
1.-The position he Is compelled to
take in receiving is a tiresome one,
and awkward, but he must be able
to go after fouls and hunts quickly.
"Catchi.g a runner at the plate is
more difficult than on the bases. be-
cause the batter has to be avoided.
why. the catcher has to be al
most a whole ball club in himself.
And the best proof that they ac-
quire a wider experience of the
game than the other players. is that
so many of them become managers
after their playing days are over"
But ask the fans of Gotham who
is the hardest working member of
the Giants, and the answer would
be almost unanimous.

Dave Bancroft, the Giants captain,

Ward is considered better than
Rawlings at second base. but the
