AS YANKEES WIN

Lose 10 to 3.
ny w. o. McGEEHAN.

Nearly everything happened during
the gusty weather at the Polo Grounds
yesterday when Harry III. F'razee and
another big wind blew across the field
The Red Sox executed a triple play
Schang was hit by two separate and
distinct pitchers in the same spot,
Whitley Witt drove a home run inside
the lot, there were two fist fights
among the spectators. and an organi-
zation called the Tall Cedars of
Lebanon, accompanied by band, fur
nished music while Harry Frazee die
tated the libretto The Yanks won by
10 to 3.
The Sox exhibited three pitchers,
perhaps with the notion that If they
looked all right there might be some
purchasers in the stands. karr started
and finished in one. He Vas relieved
by Fullerton, reputed to be descend
ant of the writer, and Dodge finished
the thing up. From the three the
Yanks accumulated fourteen hits.
The triple play. which was perhaps
the most unusual incident of an unusual
afternoon, with the possible exception OK
the uniforms Of the Tall Cedars OF Leb-
anon. came in the second inning. Chick
let's Fewster got his base on balls ard
scurried to third when ]. Franklin
Baker shot single to right. Miller
who came back into the game for the
first time since he had his shin Clipped
by a pitched ball. hit 10 Dugan. who
passed the pill to Pratt. Pratt passed II
along to Burns, completing the double.
BY this time Fewster had started for
home Burns heaved the ball to Muddy
Rucl, who nailed Fewster at the platter.
Tall Cedars Become Noisy.
After this incident the band of the
Tall Cedars Of Lebanon played a piece.
The piccolo player was Yankee rooter
and came through strong. but the slide
trombone evidently had Boston leanings,
for his work was a bit ragged. He may
have put the notes in sweet enough. but
they came out of the horn very sour.
Walter Pipp was out of the Yank line
up for a minor operation to his nose
and Mike McNally went right over to the
first sack and played a nice game. Be-
cause of the brittleness OF baseball
players the Yankee owners are wise in
carrying two ball teams instead of one.
Whitley Wits homer was quite
Paste 1t went on line to right center
and John Shane Collins made try for
It. but the ball was beyond the range OF
his digits 1t bounded merrily toward
the fence. while the Yaaise. Alh.no be-
gan tearing around the corners He
reached the plate before the relay could
be started.
Something like 1000 customers gath
cred to pay their respects to the ex-
Yankees who are now connected with
the Red Sox and the Red Sox who may
become Yankees when they learn to lead
better baseball lives. (By the way. that
boy Dugan looks almost ready the next
time there happens to be vacancy In
the infield.)
Fraxee shows HIS Pitchers.
The Yanks fell upon Karr, Mr.. Fra
zee's first pitching offering. and had
MIN out of the box in the first inning.
Unless he improves Mr. Frazee will
have no customers for him this season.
Witt got a base on balls. Fewstea
Baker and Miller singled In turn With
McNally out, Ward drove one that
passed right between John Shane Col
lins's legs for double This making
four runs and four hits, the Red Sox
put another pitcher on the mound for
customers to look over. This one was
Fullerton. who stopped the Yanks for
the time being.
In the second inning the Red Sox had
Joe Bush a little annoyed after Smith
was safe on a bobble by Ward, Dugan
(perhaps the Yanks could use him this
year) hit two bagger, which irritated
Bush so that he gave vent to wild
pitch and Smith scored. Burns singled
to left and Dugan scored.
In the third the Yanks accumulated
two more runs. Ward was ncked on
the neck with wild pitch and Scott
singled to left. A balk on the part OF
Mr. Fullerton advanced both of the run
ners. Schang hit to right and Ward
and Scott scored.
In the fourth Whitley Witt, the agile
Albino, got run all by himself. 1t is
not so frequent that they keep the ball
in the lot and go the whole route. but
this ball was pasted most pondcrously
by Witt. The band of the Tall Ccdars of
Lebanon played what seemed an i'm
promptu piece after this achievement.
In the eighth the Yanks gathered
three more runs to make the thing look
really decisive. Schang laid dawn
bunt and beat 1t to the bag. Bush sacri-
ficed. Witt drove n single down to
center and continued to travel when the
ball caromed off John Shane Collinss
No. IL shoe and schang scored Witt
scored on Bakers double and Niller's
single brought home the agriculturist of
Trappe. Md. Three singles gave the Red
Sox one lone run in the ninth.
