the right handed pitching ace of the
F1atbush Fusilliers, was lifted tenderly
from the mound in the second inning af-
ter the Giants had scored five runs by
carroming quite n number Of hits of
the slippery joints of Ivan Olson. who
proved his right to the name of Ivan the
Terrible yesterday.
Charles Fl. Ebbets. the good old squire
OF Flatbush, made his way across the
bridge on foot after what one might call
the debacle, If slangily inclined. Two
other pitchers were shot from under Will
bert Robinson, the heroic field marshal of
the Dodgers. who stood firmly upon the
burning plain meath Coogan's Bluff, de-
flying Hughey Jennings and John w.
Humidity as Commissary-General Harry
M. Stevens rushed up the five gallon con-
tainers Of ice water.
Though considerable number of base
hits volleyed and thundered around him.
Shufflin' Phil Douglas remained on the
mound for the Giants. Not only that,
Shufflin' Phil connected with two base
hits which still further strengthens the
suspicious of Barney Dreyfus that some
thing is loose with the official baseballs.
Phil advancing to bat is a picture alone
worth the price of admission. He can
make the handle of that bat look so
much like the handle of hod that he
looks more like an Industrious artisan
going to his daily toll than an expensive
athlete about to entertain.
The customers turned out in numbers
quite satisfactory to the club owners.
There We're quite as many in the park
yesterday as there were on the previous
day to welcome home the Yanks The
baseball fans of the two boroughs are
almost Is friendly as the celebrated Kill
Kenny cats, and the fraternal spirit that
exists when the Dodgers and Giants
mingle at the Polo Grounds helps TO
make business for the special constabu-
larry.
The Giants got one In tie first in
ming with two out. Trisch shot a single
past Grimes and stole second. proving
that he had entirely recovered from
the injuries he sustained when he tried
to peek through the seams of baseball
In motion. Meusel drove hit through
one of the vacuums which Olson car
ries in his glove, and Frisch scored.
The Dodgers got on in their half OF
the second. Myers and Mitchell singled
in turn. With two out Grimes slashed
one to right scoring Myers Then the
rout of the Flatbush Fusilliers began.
Young started to bunt md the ball
hurdled Burleigh Grimes's sconce, roll
ing to Ivan~-the Terrible Young
reached first before Ivan could get the
ball there. Kelly singled to left and
Young stopped abruptly at second. STEM
gel rolled one to Grimes. who fumbled,
and thebases were full of Giants and
Squire Ebbets was full of apprehension
Andy High Dreams.
or Smith drove Young across with
a single to right. Tommy Griffith made
wonderful return and appeared to have
Long George Kelly trapped by the toe
on the trail between third and thepate.
Andy High semed to be dreaming when
the ball shot into his mitt.
He stood at the bag muttering 10 him
self. "Hefio. here's a baseball in my
mitt How did it get the-a and why?
! must report this mystery to Mr.. Rob-
fnson and ask him how come"
When II occurred to- him that Griffith
in the course of his right fielding du-
ties had hurled the ball to him to tag
some one Stengcl had reached third and
Kelly had scored. This brought up
Shunlin' Phil who singled to center
scoring Stengel. Bancroft's out sent
Smith and Douglas along. John Raw
lings walked and the bases were full Of
Giants again while Squire Ebbets was
full Of despair
Frisch singled to center. scoring
Smith. Then and there Uncle wilbert
Robinson tossed the sponge for Grimes
and Sergeant Sherrod Smi.', was sent
TO the rescue.
Ivan the Terrible got all the way
around the bases by himself in the
fourth inning after two of the Fusilliers
had been shot away from the plate.
Ivan hit to Young in right. Young tried
to do some fancy heaving and the bail,
previously mostened by Shufflin' Phil,
the moistest of the remaining spitball-
ers. slipped from his fingers and slid
around the lot, while Ivan the Terrible
kept going and scored.
Irish Meusel doubled off the left field
wall in the fifth and went to third on
Young's sacrifice. Irish scored while
Ivan the Terrible was throwing out Long
George Kelly in his methodical Scandin-
avian way.
In the sixth shuffln' Phil was slightly
but not entirely overcome by the heat,
which had been beating mercilessy
upon his head. but fortunately had not
affected his sensitive feet. While in this
dazed and semi-comatose condition the
Dodgers got two runs off him. with
two out Sherry Smith singled. Andy
High hit to Young. who let the pill roll,
by him. At this point Shufflin' Phil
uncorked a wild pitch which let Smith
score and High reached third. High
scored on a single by Griffith. Hear
ing that Phil Douglas had a headache
the bat boy dashed cold water on his
feet and revived him.
