Furthermore, Master G. Herman
Ruth gratified some $4,000 representa-
tive citizens when he decided the fate
Of the first game by clouting out his
fourteenth home run, with the bases
full, in the third inning. This is the first
time since he has joined the metropoli-
tan forces that the Behemoth of Bust
has delivered four-base blow with all
sacks populated. He accomplished the
feat four times while Respondent mem
Der of the Red Sox outfit, and his last
hit Of that kind was SO terrific that 1t
knocked a major league manager out
of his job. 1t was in squabble be,
tween the Red Sox and Cleveland. and
the late Jim Dunn was so disgruntled
over the strategy of Lee Foil on this
play that he accepted FohPs resigna-
tion nv request and handed the job to
iris Speaker.
The Babe was not the only home run
hitter of the day His former partner
in crime, long Bob Measel, lined one
into the left-feld bleachers in the sew
enth inning of the second game, and
hardly had the cheering died down be-
fore Fred Hoffman, UP and duplicated
the desperate deed. Freddie had on
his batting clothes as we'll as shin
guards and chest protector in this fes-
tivity. He got two singles, double
and a homer in fou, times up. Meusei
kept, up a merry cannonading against
the barriers throughout the afternoon.
In nine tries against the opposition
hurting he drove out two singles, two
doubles, triple and homer, which is
considered fair days work even IN
the Meusel family.
Sparkling Support for Bush
BULLET Joe" Bush chucked his speed
bal, at the Indians throughout the
whole of the first pastime, and the en-
envy was not a bit slow about hitting
them right back past the hurler The
Tribe denied his delivery to the
whistling time of eleven bingles, but
only one of them was an extra base mt,
and sparkling support held the total
damage to three runs. However, the
brutal assault by the invaders so en-
ragged Bullet joe that he went on
batting rampage himself with two sin
giles and rip-roaring triple to the
farthest confines of the Fabian arena.
"Duster" Mails started the first game
for the Indians. but after the hectic
third inning, during which he was
Jared from his topmast to the under-
side Of his mismated feet by the Yam
kee onslaught, he. engaged in an
oratorical contest with Arbiter Tom
Connolly and was invited to take the
cir. Before he was banished Bush had
singled. Witt was safe on Wamby's
error McNally was nicked on the elbow
by pitc. ball, filling the bases, and
Babe Ruth dropped his dinky little
+{o ri0ht hand
pccketof the lower right field stand.
Meusel tripled right after the Babe
and scored on u sacrifice fly by Pipp.
Then the Buster delivered his grafton
and took a nice cool shower.
Cleveland stole a one-run lead IN
the first inning on hits by Jameson
and Stephenson, and they made another
Sewell walked and Mcinnis singled to
center. This lead looked like 30 cents
Mexican after the Yanks had pounded
Mails in their half Of the third. Four
hits, an error and a wounded batsman
gave the Hugmen five tallies, which
was more than enough to win the game
right there. However the Yanks
picked up another in the fourth on
hits by Witt and Meusel and a success
full double steal by the same pair.
The Indians threatened trouble IN

Battling Bob Yields Eight Hits
That bold sailor boy, Battling Bob
Shawkey, was sent to the mound
against Genial Jim Lindsey in the sec
ond engagement. The rover of the
bounding main had his enemies dashed
to the mast throughout the contest. He
yielded only eight hits and three runs
all told, and two of the hits and one
of the runs were doled out in the
ninth inning, when the Yankee machine
had a nine-run lead. A walk to Stuffy
McInnis, Il double by Joe Wood and a
single by Lindsey gave the Tribe one
tally in the fourth Wamby's safe
another in the fifth. and singles by
Wamby and Spoke" in the last frame
ckalked UP the final Cleveland tally.
While this retail hitting business
was being conducted on minor scale
the Yankee sluggere were treating the
spectators to the sight Of footsore and
leg-weary Indians hitting the trail
after drives to all corners of the field.
Fourteen hits and eleven runs was the
total in eight turns at bat. This in

Master Lindsey and Joe Schaute, for

to display his left-handed wares against
the Yanks. The assault on Lindsey
had yielded five hits and four runs. A
double by Ward and homers by Meusel
and Holman in the eighth scored
three more for the Yanks and gave the
aforementioned Schaute taste of high
life in the big leagues. However, he had
