Glazner tottered through eight innings
against the Giants to-day and fell with
a tbud in the ninth, last inning push
by the invaders from New York yield
ing to victory, and putting them
on the heels of the Pirates in the dash
for first place.
Three hits, one Of them q double by
Frank Frisch, and pass, punched
with an error by George Cutshaw, were
productive of the runs that brought the
Giants up from the ruck and put them
out in front to stay.
The Pirates batted Jess Barnes to the
showers in the third inning, but could
DO little with Phil Douglas, who fol-
lowed Barnes, and nothing at all with
Ryan, who followed Douglas, pitching
one inning against the league leaders.
The only run scored during Douglas g
occupancy of the box was an unearned
one, while Ryan turned the Pirates
away in one, two, three order in the
ninth after the Giants had swept into
when Douglas was relieved for a pinch
hitter during the Giants winning
Carey and Bigbee Shine
Catches of long drives perpetrated
by Carey and Bigbee at the expense of
Bancroft and Young were all that pre-
vented the Giants from scoring in the
first inning. Burns pried the lid off
the combat with a single to left, but
Carey, running at top speed, got his
hooks on Bancroft's offering close TO
the score board in center field. Frisch
was an easy out on short fly to Big
bee, but the Pirate left fielder had to
be fast and skilful to grab Young s
smash within few feet OF the left
field fence.
Two runs, one of them tainted, were
cleaned off Glazner's slants in the sec
ond inning. Kelly punched single to
left to start the round and Meusel sent
Kelly crossed the plate on Rawlings's
for second as Max pulled back his arm
for the throw to the plate and Maran-
vile shot to head Irish off at the mid
die bag by intercepting the throw.
But the Rabbits throw to second was
wide of its mark and bounded on into
center field, Meusel dashirg to third.
Smith handcutFed Grimm with a sharp
grounder. The Pirate first sacker
quickly recovered and threw to the
plate, but not in time to get Meusel,
who scored in slide past Schmidt.
The even tenor of the Giants way
was rudely disturbed in the third inn
ing when the Pirates hacked their way
into the lead, humping Barnes off the
hillock as they did So Bigbee connect
ed for three bases to start the downfall
of Barnes and the advance of the
Pirates. Carey was thrown out by
Rawlings, who grabbed his grounder
close to second, but Bigbee counted
while the play was in progress.
Young Makes Vain Try
Meanwhile got one-base blow to
right and Cutshaw hit safely to left.
Meusel's tardy throw to check Maran-
Vile at third gave Cutshaw a chance to
GO to second. Young came in fast for
Whitted's high fly, but couldn't reach
it. the ball falling to earth for single,
on which Maranville scored. Barnhart
then singled to left, scoring Cutshaw.
In the fourt!, Schmidt singled to cen
ter; Glazner sacrificed. Bigbee missed
a swing at the ball with hit-and-run
third. Bigbee singled to CENTER. pill
fered second, romped to third on
Smiths wild heave past the middle bag
and scored on single by Carey.
There was comparative lull until
the ninth and it proved to be the calm
before the storm. A goodly portion Of
the crowd started out of the park as
Smith went to bat in the ninth, but
held UP when Earl drew a pass. Gun
ningham was assigned to run for Smith
and Brown swung for Douglas. Brownie
got base hit on short fly TO left that
neither Meanwhile nor Biebee could
reach and Burns smashed hit past
Barnhart, filing the bases. Bigbee took
Bancroft's low liner off his shoe tops
and threw to second, hoping to double
Brown off that bag; whereupon Gun
ningham ran home.
Frisch hammered the ball past Carey
for two bases, sending Brown and
Burns over the plate. Carey threw to
Cutshaw, whose throw to Schmidt went
over the catcher's head to the grand
stand, permitting Frisch also to score.
Young continued the attack with an
infeld hit, but Kelly and Meusel were
retired.
The score:
