GIANTS SMOTHER YANKS
13 TO 5, RUNNING EIGHT
SCORES IN ONE INNING

limbered their vocal chords, their
cow bells and rattles, 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 seeth-
Ing waves of yelling humanity. The
Yankee supporters were dumb
after the third inning and the close
of the conflict became a Giant car
nival.
The Yankee fielders stood up
we'll under the bombardment of
hits and incidentally turned in not
able defensive feats. One of these
was a jumping catch in the second
inning by Aaron Ward. the Yankee
second sacker, which resulted in q
double play.
1t was George Burns, the Giants
center fielder, however. who turn
ed in the most remarkable feat OF
the game and also of the series.
In 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 his shoulder. close
to the center field fence. 1t was
a marvellous piece Of fielding and
it drew a big demonstration from
the crowd.
All the Giants with the exception
of Toney and Kelly figured in the
hitting. Toney was taken from the
game before he had a chance TO
bat. Burns and Snyder divided the
batting honors, each making four
hits. Burns hitting included a
double and triple. Young had a
double and a triple, while Irish
Meusel had two singles and a
double.
Babe Ruth had another colorless
day compared with some of his
work during the seasons cam
paign. In four trips to the plate
he struck out twice. made a single
which scored two Yankee runs and
drew a base on balls. Fewster run
ming for him and scoring a run.
1t was said the home run king was
suffering from an infected arm.
In the fielding side he had but one
chance, capturing Bancrofts sac
rifice fly.
The game which endec so lop-
sidedly, started out as II 1t might
be another one like the pitchers
battle of yesterday. Toney, who
started for the C.ants, breezed
along comfortably 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 ans in. Another run
was scored by the Yankees before
"Jess" Barnes, who relieved him,
could retire the side.
Shawkey met his fate, like Toney,
in this same inning. His wildness
was responsible. After he had
forced two runs over the plate by
passing batters, Jack Quinn was
called to the mound. Two OF the
Giants Shawxey left on the bases
subsequently tailed, but there was
no more scoring off Quinn until the
tenptestuous seventh. Mean
while Barnes was twirling a
heady, steady game, and holding
the Yankees safe as he did to the
end
Then came the Yankees third
inning. Schang drew a base on
balls and cached third on Shaw
keys single to right. Miller hit
for n base, scoring Schang and
moving Shawkey to second. Toney
gave Peckinpaugh 6 base on balls
and all corners were filled. Cheers
OF ..e Yankee fans rocked the
stands as the home run king walked
to the plate. Ruth slammed Toney's
sixth pitch and drove 1t to center
for a single, sending home both
Shawkey and Miller. Peckinpaugh
