and tumbled on the broad of his back
| into the mud. 1t was a wonderful
catch, and in view of the subsequent
proceedings, it would hardly be saying
too much to aver that Seattle Bill
saved the day.
Then began the fatal base running
Of the Yankees. Whitley Witt went to
third on the catch, but ode Dugan
/ failed to make second which would have
/ been an easy feat for him to perform.
| Wally Pip, the "Runmaker" slammed
single to right center and scored
Witt, while Dugan dashed to third.

ningham to Frisch Bob Meusel got
the fourth hit of McQuillan and Dugan
trotted home with the second run. Four
of the first five men up had hit safely,
and the only blow that was caught was
the hardest Of all.
surprising-for the Yanks
1t was surprising to see "Red Mac"
still occupying the mound. 1t was still
more surprising to witness the COM
plete subjection in which he held the
next nineteen hitters of the enemy clan.
The total damage TO his delivery from
this point to the time when two mon
were out in the seventh inning was
base on balls to Babe Ruth in the third
and another free ticksA to Deacon
Scott in the fifth.
In the meanwhile a great deal Of
water had passed under the various
bridges of this metropolis and vast
amount also had seeped down behind
the coat collars of the hardy fans.
| Carl Mays was working his submarine
ball on an almost submerged field with
tpefect success. The Giants got
| scratch hit to start the game when
Bancroft's grounder bounced away
from the Yankee pitcher. In the fourth
Ross Young lined a single to right.
The burly underslung slabster seemed
I to be in supreme command of the stu
alton. Here was one of the five-star
staff working along smoothly with
two-run lead. Nothing could be sweeter
from Yankee viewpoint. With a sud
den roar the Clan McGraw opened
heavy barrage on the Higgins hurler
| that did not die down until four runs
were over the plate. The most aston
! ishing blow was the two-bagger de-
| livered by Hughey McQuillan in person.
| Then Bancroft's grounder jumped over
Wards head for single and two runs
scored. Groh beat out tap to Mays
and the final blow was struck by Ross
Young. Irish Meusel contributed TO the
good cause by scoring Bancroft on his
linfieid cut.
| Aaron Wards homer in the seventh
was convincing clout. 1t brought the
Yanks to within one run of tie and
made Wardie the leading home run
hitter Of the series to date. Elmer
Smith struck out for Mays in the
eighth, and Squire Jones set the Giants
down in order in the ninth. To any
one who was at all interested in the
health. wealth and prosperity of the
Yankee crew, their ninth inning was a
nightmare. Pipp's double, that started
the final rally, went to waste when
Bob Meusel hit to Groh and Wally was
erased between second and third
Then Schang drove lone single to
center. Meusel went TO third and tho
Yankee receiver labored under the de-
cidedly mistaken misapprehension that
he could reach second while the Giants
were tossing the ball around.
| A two-bagger by the first batter up
and single by the third resulted IN
nothing but lone runner at third base
and two men out for the Yankees.
Making the third out is generally an
easy matter after having solved the
/ other problem. Ward closed the game
with long, fly to Irish Meusel.
Miller Huggins has now fred his
four main batteries and has yet to hit
the mark. John McGraw spends his
evenings trying not to laugh HIM
self to death. Colonel Rupert has
withdrawn into private life. He
couldn't stand the Yankee yace. he said.
