New-York tribune., 1921-05-08

The WORD MOB ts used most ad-I
visedly, for these $4,000 watchers
never ceased their yelis and yowls and
beo-hoees from the time the practice
session began until Zachary Wheat
flied to Lee King in center for the final
cut Of the contest. The innocent by
stander. that term covering the few
who did keep their heads on their
shoulders and their lungs at ease, was
doubtless amazed at the general all
round "mobbiness" of the crowd.
OF course. these "Iunocents Abroad"
had never been so far abroad as Flat
bush on those certain days last week
when Uncle Wilbert and his nine and
his multitudes of rooters just played
our Giants off all their feet,
heaping resms of abuse upon their vic
Tins meanwhile. It was chapter
snasched by the Manhattanites from
the "Book of Flatbush" that caused all
the yowIing, jeers and boo-hooes.
Frank Frisch the Hero
If one were called upon TO select
two or three heroes developed in this
most magnificent diamond battle, MIR.
Frank Fordham Frisch would deserve
the honor throne, with Ross Young. of
San Antonio, and Ed Konetchy, of Bo-
hsnia, finishing second and third, re-
spectively.
It was this "upstartn from the col
lege world Of two years ago that put TO
nought the sterling work of Sherrod
Smith, southpaw par excellence of
Brooklyn In only one inning was
Sherrie what you might call at all ap-
proachabls, and it was then that this
Fordham Flash pounced upon the left
handler for the blow that sent $4,000
fans into frightful frenzy.
George Burns opened on Smith with
single to left, only to be forced at
second by Dave Bancroft. Sherrod was
nightly encouraged at the snuffing out
OF Burns, but old and dire fate came
to the plate along with Frisch and his
bat
frankie Fordham certainly walloped
that southpaw slant that broke so per-
fectly over the platter. The drive car
ried almost to the exit gate in right
center and Bancroft and Frisch began
merry spin around. Bancroft scored
and Frisch pulled up at third as Peter
kin Kilduff relayed the clout to Olson
at second.
Two Singles for Young
Ross Young next appeared upon the
scene as Hero No. 2. Ross shot the ball
over third for single that enabled
Frisch to finish his scoring journey.
San Antonio Young was also potent
factor in the production of the Giants
third and last tally which, in the YER
acnlar, put the game on ice" There
we're two men out in the eighth frame
when Young duplicated his hit of the
arst inning, went to second on g passed
ball and sped over the rubber following
Eo11 1xy}a 1aa St1li iu r,fQ
punch 10 right field.
The praise due the Bohemian Ko-
netchy is of the sort accrues to man
brave and true who tries to make up
for the shortcomings of his mates by
playing strong hand alone. This
Konetchy person took especial delight
in the pitching of Fred Toney, the
Giant boxnan.
On his first appearance at the plate
Big Ed shot wicked single through
she underpinning of "Goldie" Rapp
This happened in the second inning.
In the fifth session Honey was the first
Brooklyn batter, and ne surely batted.
The ball he connected with cut through
the air on a line into the left field
hleachers.
This stupendous effort resulted In the
only run scored by the Dodgers, but
Honey did not stop here in his efforts
to do it all. In his third and last ap-
pearance with his war club the Bo-
hemian, with one man out, smashed the
bali between third and short for his
third hit, but only to realize at last
that his pals were of absolutely no
assistance.
But it was an goodness ball
game, and Charles Fl. Ebhets, Squire of
Flatbush, better have his lamps
trimmed and hurnirO and his stands
and bleaehers reinforced in strongest
fashion to welcome the thousands who
will call upon him at his ball park to-
morrow, when the Brawl of the Bor-
oughs will be continued. The score of
the "Braw1' now stands to 2 in favor
OF Flathush.
