Umpire Bill Hart 1T looked as though
the ball only would have hit the rim Of
the wall anyhow, SO he registered it as
a two bagger and cofered his ears to
shut out the shrill squawklngs Of the
Pirates. While the baseballs were
loose they were not quite as loose as
they were Saturday. There were three
home runs in addition TO the near home
run by Morrison. Max Carey. as has
been his habit during this series, got two
and Reb Russell got the other.
Phil Douglas Has Bad Day.
1t was disastrous day for Shufflin
Phil Douglas. He had premonition

had warned him to beware of the loose
ness OF the baseballs that were being
used In this series. Phil was cautious
When a suspicious looking baseball was
handed to him he would flatten 1t WITH
the pressure of his mighty paw and toss
it back to the umpire as being worn out.
If the umpire demurred the splitter would
place them in his mouth and MUNICH seq
ments from them so that they could not
be used. Phil employed every precau-
ton. but still the basebslls acted loosely.
The loosness of the baseballs first be-
came apparent In the fourth inning
l3igbee got base on balls despite the
pleading look that Douglas cast at I'm
pire Hank O'Day. Then Reb Russell
who was pitcher until he became con-
veped banged homer into the upper
right field stands. At first IT looked as
though the baal would clear the roof. 1t
looked like an exceedingly loose sphe-
roid.
In the seventh inning the baseballs
became so loose that they seemed ut
terly lacking in self restraint, or restraint
by any human agency. Grimm started
the barrage with triple to right CEN
ter. The bounding spheroid went right
to the fence and it looked as though he
would go all the way around for home
run, but he pulled up cautiously at third.

At this point >Hughey Jennings. who
had been meditating beneath the shelter
of his cluster Of freckles. began to de-
eide that the Shuff1in spitballer was not
splitting at his best. The defect might
be attributed to the deterioration in the
present crop of plug tobacco or the in
ferior chicle used In gums. But II was
apparent that the splitting of Shuffiin'
Phil was not doing him justice. SO
Hughey decided that Phil was through
splitting and replaced him in the eighth
with Jonnard.
In the meantime Morrison was con-
tinuing quietly TO keep the Giants from
getting within reaching distance of the
platter. The heavy artillery of the
worlds champions wheeled into position
pece by piece and took wild swings only
to hit them up or to hit nothing at all.
John Morrison of Pillervile, KY. was
enjoying himself exceedingly.
