Waite Hoyt. the hoy veteran from
Brooklyn. took every ounce OF drive
out OF the Giant bludgeons. He held
the hard hitting National league
champions to two hits. one a little
drive that dropped between the great
Babe Ruth and Peck.
The Giants again played a heart
less game and they showed symp-
toms OF being whipped from the first
inning. Their heads were down. and
all the dash and spirit that marked
their drive for the pennant in the
National league race seemed TO have
evaporated.
Art Nehf. the star southpaw OF
the McGraw troupe. helped 10 pull
the props out from under his own
game and bring down upon the
Giants the second bucket OF white
wash in two days. In the fourth In
ming Ward singled and reached sec
ond when Nehf threw McNallys
grounder wild to second trying for a
force.
The Giant hurler seemed ratified

pushed the first run over with an
infield out.
Frank Frisch. the Giant hero OF the
gains. was the first player 10 appear
at the club house. Harry Harper. the
only southpaw member OF the Yankee
pitching staff, was the first one of
the HuEgins clan TO arrive.
While the band blnred The
Yankees Are Coming" the American
league champions came thru the big
right field gate at 1898.
The Yanks then took the field for
batting practice. Rip Collins. Texas
cowboy. started serving them up to
the plate. Elmer Miller hit the first
ball he pitched into the left field
bleachers and the crowd showed the
first symptoms of life with a lusty
cheer and scramble for the ball.
Nick Altrock. the champion clown Of
baseball from Washington. dashed
into the Yank locker room with a de-
mand for a large size uniform and
an announcement that he was going
to work this afternoon.
Altrock answered call from the
Yankee club owners, who wanted him
to come and put some jazz into the
game.
In blue road uniform the Giants
appeared at l O'Clock. Squatty Jess
Burkett. one of McGraw's lieuten-
ants. strutted out in front of the
squad. carrying a bag of balls. The
Giants were given a good demonstra-
ton by the crowd, which was rapidly
increasing.
McGraw's men looked over the
Yanks, who were at batting practice.
and strolled into their dugout on the
third base side.
