Special Despatch to THE New YORK HERALD
PITTSBURGH. July 2e.-Ten innings OF
tense. snarling bristling baseball-ten
innings of throbbing combat in which
the hearts Of more than 20. 900 onlookers
beat in varying rhythm with rally and
counter rally-ten innings of gameness
left the Giants with we'll earned
triumph over the Pirates this afternoon
by to 8. Incidentally. George Kelly hit
his seventeenth home run Of the season.
1t was a grand uphill battle, which
put the New Yorks on top. One New
York hero rose. only to be superseded by
another. One staggering New York blow
was followed by another. only to prove
insufficient; for the Pirates. riding that
powerful wave of momentum which has
kept them In the lead fought with force
and determination. And then. in the
tenth inning. UP strode the newest Of the
Giants. Bill Cunningham. to deliver a
triple which scored Ross Young with
the run that broke the deadlock in favor
OF the Giants
A wild inning indeed was that tenth.
And quite few wild ones preceded for
in the eighth the New Yorks dealt their
master blow of the struggle five run
rally which knocked Hamilton out of
the box and put them In front by 6 to 5.
AS the five tallies went into the New
York score the figure OF Young rose to
salient greatness, for it was a three base
hit by the outfielder. with the bases
full. which scored three runs and sent
the Pirates trailing.
scrappy Ninth Inning.
A scrappy ninth inning saw first
George Burns rise to a position along
side Young. and then Dave Bancroft
~ ala Il.
Pirates Ryan singled. Burns doubled
and Bannie tripled. and two runs were
In. 1t looked like New Yorks game for
certainty.
But the Pirates. fighting with their
backs to the wall. still were to be heard
from. Their last desperate rally was
yet to come. And when 1t broke 1t al
most sent the Giants into confusion.
Three echofng triples crashed from
Pittsburgh bats. Rohwer, pinch hitting
for Carlson. hit the first three Dagger.
and Bigbee followed with another.
Ryan's tour Of the bases in the New
York half evidently had done him no
good.
The stands were in the widest of con-
fusion. Hats sailed through the air In
reckless abandon. Ryan quit the scene
and in came Jess Barnes to stem the
tide.
Carey's sacrifice to Cunningham
scored Bigbee and then. horror or hor-
rors, another triple by Maranville. Cut
shaw bounded to Bancroft, who made
perfect throw to the plate and nailed
Maranville.
When the tenth inning opened Glaz-
ner was in the box for the Pirates
Young. arch plotter against Pittsburgh

a single and a triple and stood out as
the games greatest-this same Young

left field fence, and had given to the
Giants their first run of the game and
their third hit off Hamilton. In the
