New-York tribune., 1922-08-26

The opposition from the Cardinals
was the stifl'est sort for seven innings,
but it gave way under pressure. The
Cardinals were outfought and an error
by Hornsby, who made his thirtieth
home run, helped beat his team. Nehf
rallied from poor start, outlasted
Hanes and pitched plucky, effective
game. Laysn, Stock, Groh, Bancroft
and Stengel were fine in the field.
The Cardinals, facing a left-hander
for the third time in as many days,
slammed Nehf in the first inning with
pestiferous familiarity. Mann cracked
home run into the right field seats
and Hornsby hit over that stand into
Grand Avenue. The avenue never was
laid out for home runs, but nobody
found any fault with Hornsby. 1t was
his thirtieth home run.
Two Hits Are Wasted
Stengcl had chance to do some
thing for his affairs and his fires, this
in the second inning, but he popped to
Mann after Young and Kelly had
singled. Smith also popped, and two
nice hits served no purpose. Two more
was hit and Frisch was passed, but
Groh and Meusel were of no assist
ance. Nehf shut down tight after his
bad first inning. Kelly lost two fouls
in the third inning, one in the sun
and one in his hands, and he gave
Hornsby a life which that stalwart
utilized to the extent of three
Dagger. That was the onlYhit off Nehf
in the second and third innings.
wizard-like stop by Layan raised
the dickens with the Giants in the
fourth. With Young and Kelly on and
nobody out, Stengel spun grounder
over SECOND which Layan seized, fore,
ing Kelly. There was still a good
chance for run, but the usual pinch
hitting weakness cropped out. Smith
flied to Stock and Nehf grounded out.
The third home run hit into the
right field stand burst from the bat of
Eddie Ainsmith. Two were out in the
fourth when it burst. Superb fielding
smeared the Giants in the field. Lavar
made another fine stop. and Stock
nabbed hot shot from Frisch on the
third base lines and while half sprawl
ing threw to Hornsby for force out.
1t was thin and scattering picking all
the way fer the Giants. Haines didn't
waver enough for them to make much
headway, and they had difficulty hit
ting the ball nard. They had to hit
brilliant defense of the Cardinals.
Frisch Starts Rally
Frisch in the eighth started an up
rising. He beat out hunt, Hornsby
fumbled on Meusel and Young kept up
the good work with two-bagger past
Schultz. Frisch crossed over with a
run, and mates were on second and
third with nobody out. Meusel scored
on Kellys out, Hornsby to Bottomly.
Young dashed in with the tying run
when stengel drilled o single, to left
That single not only knocked in the
tying run but when, followed by
Smiths single, knocked out Haines,
who had been going so we'll. Horns
by's error was as much to blame as
Haines. Nehf hit into a double play
after Smith had poked safely to right,
leaving the score tied.
Nehf had to do some pitching in the
eighth Stock, with one out, singled.
Hornsby, with single on a hit-and-
run play and a three-and-one count,
sent him to third. Nehf strsek out
Bottomly with curve and Groh then
threw out Schultz.
To men were out and done Cor in
the ninth, when the Giants proceeded
to gather run. Frisch singled and
Pertica threw over to first to drive
him back. Bottomly missed the throw
and Frisch kicked up the dust in his
frenzied fight to third. Right there,
and he couldn't have chosen better
time, Meuset put in q single, and the
game was won.
