The Giants grabbed a run in the
first. only to leave the Griffs take two

he went to third on Walkers single

Neither team could accomplish any

Giants got busy in the fifth and showed
over two runners. Burns opened with
a pass, advancing on an infield out.
Frisch dropped a double over the
right field fence, scoring Burns. The
Fordham flash scored himself on
Walkers double along the right feld

In the Griffs' half, after two were

Rice's walk filled the bases. Duffy

The Griffs threatened in the eighth

Frisch. Foss and ORourke could not
shove the ball beyond the infield, and
so there was no scoring.

Snyder walked in the ninth and
Benton sacrificed. Burns flied and a
wild heave put Snyder on third. Foss
tossed out Patterson, holding the
Giants to their four tallies.
