Both Teams Play Errorless Game and Hit

His Single Sends In Two Runs

The dam which had been holding
back the food of the Giants wrath
burst in the seventh inning yester-
day, causing the Yankees to run for
the hills and the umpire take the
hindmost.
Until that moment the score Of the
third game of the worlds series was
ALL. In the engulfing seventh the
Giants got eight runs. They did
most OF it with their clubs, which

around the clock and made eight hits

Bats veritably Inspired.
The Giants had been batting freely
anyway. IN all. they got twenty hits

Giants were irresistible because of
their concentrated batting streaks,

run been earned with the wallop.

1t was. from the popular standpoint.
by far the best game of the series to
date. The crowd was the biggest. For
the first time the stands and bleachers
were really full. including standing
room, and belated pilgrims at the gates
were turned away. The play was
brisk, there were loads of free hitting
which always makes the mob happy:
there were dazzling circus catches. two
of which have rarely been equalled
old timers said: there were no errors:
there was dash and spirit and color
and the thrill Of high combat.
Gone was the Giants lethargy. That
paradoxical draught, the elixir of de-
feat, which they had tasted for two
whole days. had worked its magic In
their veins. From the instant when
they started their batting practice be-
fore the game until they trotted hap

were men of zest and purpose. They

Mob Thirsty for Homer.
The one thing the mob thirsted for
and did not get was home run. II
seemed extraordinary that among so
many cloutings there should be no home
run. or course Babe Ruth was looked
to to provide at least one. The knowl-
