/ into centerheIc, .ho winning run came
over the plate, and Miller Higgins was
a bum" according to the final authori-
] ties of the baseball world, the bleach
erltes. Only his diminutive proportions
| saved him the humiliation Of being
| dubbed a great big bum" At least
| once in his life his size was in his
| favor.
Yessir! Uncle Bill Lange's nevyy
| just laid ash against that ball with
| might and main and the big cut of the
| worlds series pie was dished out on
| the Giant plate. Frankie Frisch and
Irish Meusel dashed home on the blow.
| The Fordham Flash tied the score and
! the Irish of the Meusel tribe brought
1 in the tally that decided the contest.
The torture of Bush was not yet over,
however. Lee King had asked Kelly
/ to save him lick" as it was his one
| chance of the series to hit the ball.
| The brawny outfelder made the most
! OF his opportunity. He singled to
left, scoring Ross Young with deco
rative tally that brought the final score
| to to g. Mr.. King is the proud pos
SCISSOR of the perfect batting average
of 1000 for the annual classic. One
hit in one time up. The brawny out
fielder suggested that it would be a
long, dusty time before anybody bet
tered that record.
The Yanks stepped out in the first
inning as though they had never been
in losing game in their gay young
lives. Joe Dugan spanked single off
LII Arthur Nehf into left field, and
the Bambino sacrificed him to second
As usual, Wally Pipp came through
in the pinch. The Grand Rapids citi-
zen brought the blush Of pride to the
brow of his proud parent, Colonel Bill
Pipp. when he slammed a steaming
single past the right ear of the Giant
hurler. Dugan tailed standing up.
The order of things was reversed in
the second session The Giants scored
two runs and might have scored a
dozen. The two tallies were easy. Meu-
sci beat out swinging bunt to Dugah,
Ross Young was presented with free
| ticket, and George Kelly dutifully sac
rificed in accordance with the Nc
Graw dictum that bunt is the play
with a man as far as second with none
out. This put the matter up to Wild
| Willie Cunningham, the Seattle Ser
pent.
| The trouble with putting anything
at all up to those Giants is that they
usually do the thing that will cause the
most trouble to their immediate neigh
bors. Seattle Bill made no attempt to
evade the issue. He smote a single to
center, and the Giants were leading by
to j. AS a reward for his meritorious
services, Cunningham was replaced by
Pinch Hitter Extraordinary Earl Smith
IN the seventh inning. The "extraor-
| dinary" part of Earl's pincbine was
that he didn't hit. He didn't even swing
at the third strike. In three pinches
| he has made a new low level-two
| strike-outs and one sock into q double
| play
Brilliant Play by Young
The Hugmen tied it up In the fifth
and only brilliant play by Young and
Frisch kept the damage down to a
single tally, Ward had walked for
starter. Deacon Scott singled to right,
] ward stopping at second. Then came

| long one-base blow to right on which

l.
the Deacon as who should saw. "Dillv.
DDlily, come and be killed" The
Yankee shortstop found his retreat cut
on and dashed for the plate. He was
nnally declared officially deceased in
the run-up, but the whole Yankee ag-
gfegation claimed that Snyder failed
to touch him with the bali. The

move would have been to cheer the

| The high tide of Giant hits over
whelmed the Higgins crew in the
elgnth and they were carried out to
the sea Of sorrow. Arthur Nehf had
neid Murderer's Row to FIVE small hits,
and Bullet Joe Bush, the leading
finger of the American League. had
been nicked for ten safeties by the
Clan McGraw. That was typical of
the entire series. Those haif-stif1ed
snorting noises last night about town
were the National League supporters
laughing up their sleeves. Colonel
Jacob Ruppert said his team finished 1,
| good second. Cap Huston's famous
Iron Boiler was taken to the Brooklyn
| Bridge and tossed into the roaring tor
rent below. It required great per-
suasiye arts to get Cap to take his
head from under the iron hat before
| the tossing began.
John Joseph McGraw is sitting on
the tor of the world. Not even Miller
Higgins begrudges him his high es-
tate. The third worlds championship
for the Giants was won by stout
gentleman with serge suit on the
left end of the dugout. He was the
best hitter and runner on the team.
Beyond that he was useless to the Ma
tional Exhibition Company.
