By Associated Press

New York. October 7-The Giants awoke from their two days of ieth- argy today and sprinkled the green award at the Polo Grounds with such shower of hits that the Yankees were swamped under a score of 13 to in the third game of the world se ries.
 The National leaguers had gone runless for 20 innings up to the third session of this afternoons struggle. Then the outbreak of hitting started.
 Giants on Spree
 Stealing the Yankees thunder, as the latter had stolen theirs in the previous games of the series in speed and daring on the bases. John Me Graws men, after spotting their American league opponents to a four run lead promptly cancelled this ad- vantage, driving Bob Shawkey, who had started for Miller Huggins' team, off the mound in the third inning. Then, after the score had run along in tie for three more innings. they broke out with an orgy of hitting against second string Yankee pitch CTS in the traditional Lucky seventh" mning. putting over eight runs in this ' chapter and piling up a total of Is \ runs and 20 hits in their eight in- | nings at the bat.
 Despite it's one sidedness, the game was of the sort that tickles the fancy of the average baseball crowd, and todays throng. despite the partisan leanings' Of good portion Of it, was no exception. The game was full base running, and, on the Giants side. long distance bfttinR
 Record Breaking Crowd
 The crowd. with perfect baseball baseball weather to bring it out, was a. record breaker for this series. More than 36,500 fans damned the stands and bleachers. They broke the series record for noise and en- thusiasm as we'll. The turn of the Yankee adherents came first, but the hubbub they kicked up was as noth- Ing to that let loose by the Grant fans when their opportunity arrived. With the McGraw clan riding rough-shod over their opponents, the National league partisans unlimbered their vocal cords, their COW bells and rattlers. heretofore subdued, and played the game as hard from their seats as their favorites did on the diamond. At times, whole sections of the stands seemed to be composed of seething waves of yelling human lty. The Yankee supporters were dumb after the third inning and the close of the conflict became a Giant carnival.
 Tanks Field We'll
 The Yankee fielders stood up well under the bombardment of hits. and incidentally turned in some notable defensive feats. One of these was a jumping catch in the second inning Ward IA Va T which resulted in douple play.
 It was George Burns, the Giants, center fielder. however, who turned in the most remarkable feat of the game and also Of the series. Tn the seventh inning he started back with the crack of Pitcher Quinn's bat against the ball and. while still on the run, hauled down the drive over bis shoulder, close to the center field fence. 1t was marvellous piece of fielding and it drew a big demonstration from the crowd
 Giants Primed To Win
 All the Giants. with the exception Of Toney and Kelly, figured in the hitting. Toney was taken from the game before he had chance to bat. Burns and Snyder divided the bat ring honors. each making four hits Burns hitting included a double and tiipics OuHB Hdu d QOuDie ana a triple, while Irish" Meusel had two singles and a double.
 Babe Ruth had another colorless day compared with some of his work turing the seasons campaign. In four trips to the plate he struck out twice. made a single which scored two Yankee runners and drew a base rn balls.
 Babe Leaves Game
 He left the game in the eighth in- ning after he had received base on balls, Fewster running for him and scoring a run. It was said the home Jrun king was suffering from an in- ffected arm. In the fielding side he had but one chance. capturing Ban crofts sacrifice.
 The game, which ended so lop- sid- s,d, started out as if 1t might be an- other one like the pitchers battle of yesterday, Toney, who started for the Giants. breezed along comfort ably for two innings. The Yankees got to him in the third, however, and he was taken out with the bases full. none out, and three runs in. An other run was scored by the Yam kees before Jess" Barnes, who re- lieved him, could retire the side.
