Long Wallops Come in Success
sion in the Morning
Festivities.
BY DANIEL.

Two more IOr tne GlantS--tWO NlctO-
ries. Two moro for George Kelly-two o
home runs. And. wonder of wonders. it
all happened over in BROOKLYN The
New Yorks went into Flatbush yester-
day and just mopped up. What with the
heat and the Giants the Brooklyn cele-
bration of the well known Fourth became
as soggy as brides biscuits.
The Giants took most OF the froth off
the celebration in the morning when they
walloped the Dodgers by to /. 1t was
In this section of the double victory that
Kelly drove out his pair of homers in
succession and brought his total up to
twelve. Babe Ruth has left Kelly way
behind. in the woods, but the Giants
George Is getting lot of fun out of the
season Notwithstanding. In the after
noon the lone home run was contributed
by one Zack Wheat. but 1t failed to
feaze the Giants, for they triumphed
by to 4.
Last night Brooklyn historians were
delving deep into baseball tones to find
another such day of disaster for their
favorites The Dodgers have lost double
headers in the past, but when did they
the days of Lumley and Alperman and
Jordan. But anyway. it was long time
ago. The Dodgers did some fancy steps
In the field and they worked like pud-
dlers In steel mill-but they just
could not stop their most hated rivals.
Dodgers' Pitching Not So Good.
Brooklyn pitching wasn't anywhere as
good as New York's In either game. In
the morning Clarence Mitchell essayed to
outdo Bill Ryan, but Bill was not to be
outdone. He pitched one of the best
games he has shown in the league and
held the Dodgers to eight scattered hits.
The Giants. on the other hand, collected
fourteen safe swats three of them home
runs. For. let it be understood, Kelly
was not the only four base walloper of
the pre-lunch festivities. Ross Young
INDUCED In one too-right before Kelly
in the opening round
The afternoon game was something of
battle between Phil Douglas, who
came back in great style from his recent
ups and downs. and Sherrod Smith, left
hander-a battle for about FIVE innings.
Then, in the sixth, the New Yorks fell
on Smith for couple of runs which
broke a to tie and put the game out
of the home clubs reach. Dutch Ruether,
innings, and at the end the Giants had
fourteen hits again-twenty-eig for a
torrid day and not so bad, If you ask us.
The Giants won that morning fracas In
about four minutes. First Young and
then Kelly fell on Mitchell like couple
of Dempsey left hooks and left the left
handler in a daze. He was still dazed in
the third, but that brings us a little
ahead OF our story. Burns opened the
game with single-one OF many he ac-
quired during the day. Bancroft popped
to Olsen. Frisch singled to right and
was nipped trying to stretch his hit into
a double.
Young Then Rams 1t.
But that left Burns on third Young
ranmed the pill to the far corner of left
field and scored Burns with enough to
beat the Brooklyns then and there.
Kelly lashed a home run into the left
field bleachers and Brooklyn was
wrecked.
The Dodgers got their lone run In their
half. Olson walked and was forced by
Johnston. Griffith walked and then Ryan
perpetrated balk. putting Johnston on
third, whence he came home on Wheat's
sacrifice lift to Brown.
Came listless second inning, and then
a new storm In the third. Bancroft beat
out a hit to the box. and F'risch singled
to right. Young bounded to Olsen, who
got Bancroft as he tried to score.
Mitchell got orders to pass Kelly, but he
still was dizzy. His second ball went a
little too near the plate and George
made a wild lunge at 1t. He caught it
where It hurt most. and the leather
went sailing over the right field wall.
Three runs
New York got n present of one IN the
fourth on couple of errors. In the
seventh Bancroft's single and steal and
