PITCH GREAT BALL

blow for the McGravian cause. The
National Leaguers would have been in a
bad way but for the ex-Philadelphian n.
They couldn't get Groh. but they got
Meusel. and it was a good investment.
He knocked in a run in the fourth in
ming with two out. Snyder. with Miller's
tumble at the other end Of his timely
base hit. landed the secono one high and
dry on the plate.
Pipp and McNalIy teamed up for the
Yankee run, and in that inning Nc
Nally was hurt sliding into second on a
force play. He had to stop a short while
afterward. Frank Baker. rugged figure
OF more than one worlds series, q
player having the respect and good will
of fans everywhere, returned to the post
he has adorned so long and cracked out
two clean hits for the Yankees.
Peck Raps q Double.
Roger Peckinpaugh raped the boards
back Of Meusel with a two base hit in
the flrst inning, but was left at third.

throwing out Miller. Miller, batting In
Ruth's position, gave a tame exhibition

lar star looked out wistfully from be.
hind the netting and wished he was out
there.
Bob Meusel hit sevagely to Douglas
in an effort to bring Peck home. Doug
las Jumped for the ball after knocking
it down and threw Meusel out. His
spryness shut off a run, and Frankie
F'risch showed his appreciation by
slapping big Phil heartily on the back.
Pipp doubled to left in the second
inning, took third on Wards sacrifice
and tailed on McNally's single to right.
The Yanks landed on Douglas vicious
" In the early part OF the game, and
more hitting away and less OF the
fineness of bunt and sacrifice looked to
be the better course. Under the circum-
stances, striking while the iron was not
appeared to be the logical policy In
preference to the one chosen by Hug
gins. 1t looked like a day to maui
Douglas. not to thrust and parry.
The fielding OF the Yanks for the
greater part was trim and tidy. and
A fter Kelly had struck out in the second
inning Pipp made q beautiful gather Of
McNaIlys low throw. The ball curved
In between Pipp and the runner. and
the catch was ono handed and with
glove hand twisted into an unnatural
position
Fewster opened the third inning with
a single, which he tried to stretch Into
q two bagger. His ambition was laud-
able. and the risk not excessive. but r..
Meusel made q good throw and got
him. The play cut a large figure. for
Peck came right behind with another
single, so that Fewster's untimely dash
for the middle pillow probably cost The
Yankees a run. But Fewstcr never
will fail for want Of trying.
The Giants hit Mays harder In the
first inning than any other time. Burns
drove a long one to Bob Meusel. Ban
croft doubled, Frisch, a constant mark
for Mays, flied to Miller and Mays
blocked a cannon ball from Young's
maulstick.
Mays struck out Bancroft In the
third after Burns had doubled.
The mischief for the Yanks began IN
the fourth with one out. Young's easy
roller was fumbled by Ward, although
officially Young received credit for hit
and Young stole second as Kelly struck
out. Schang was partly to blame for
the Giants run. for be had chance TO
throw Young out stealing. Meueefs
single to centre brought Young home.
Burns Caught Mt Third.
The Yankees made no hits In the
fourth, NTH or sixth inning. They
landed forcibly In that interim. how
ever, and more than once Burns
doubled in the fifth with two out and
good throwing, Meusel 10 Ward TO Ba-
ker cooked his goose at third. Ward
made three good plays In the sixth. He
came In for feeble chops by Bancroft
and Frisch and scuttled eastward for
Young's grounder
Pipp sent limo to Douglas In the
seventh. a good bid for base hit
Douglas had TO grab the ball or be
drilled through. His seif-defence catch
was lucky for him and robbed Pipp
OF hit. Burns plucked Wards fly
from the air. Baker Jumped single
over second. lie ran to third on
Schang's singic. and schang went tc
the keystone krannv on a passed ball.
In the second inning Mays lost
base hit because Rawlings Jumped high
and speared hie liner. In the seventh,
and with men on second and third. he
lost n hit of priceless value because the
ball. hard driven. went straight TO Raw
lings
Ward made hts second costly tumble
on Rawlings IN the seventh Inning Two
were out at the time. and the third
out was all too long deferred for the
Yankees. Before II came Snyder rim
gied 10 centre and Rawlings streaked
for third on II. a point he would have
made easily. AS Miller booted the ball
some ten or twenty feet--an out and
out error--Rawlings continued and
