of the world. They reached that
! pinnacle of success Tor the sec
ond consecutive year in furious
uphill rush this afternoon that

er, Bullet Joe" Bush.
1t was the second consecutive
time that the Yankees have buck
ed the Giants in a worlds series
and failed. This year they went
down ingloriously without the
solace of having captured even
| one Of the five games that COM
prised the battle for the title. The
| best they could do was to tie the
second game of the series. The
/ Giants won the other four.
! In all the annals of the game,
only two clubs ever triumphed i'll
world series in such a decisive
| fashion. In 1907 the Chicaso No
tionaIs won four straight victories
over the Detroit Americans after
! fighting a twelve-inning first
game tie at 3-3 in runs. Seven
years later the Boston Braves
surprised the fans of the @ntire
nation by wrecking Connie Mack

The Yankees enjoyed tbs preh

Bush In Trouble.
When the ball was thrown back
to the box. Bush found himself in
trouble. F'risch, the fastest rum
ner on either team. stood perched
on third base and Irish Meusel on
second. At the plate swinging his
bat left handed stood Pep Young.
who usually drops his hits in right
field
At this moment there popped
into The mind OF Miller IIuggins the
thought that the best way out Of
the difficulty would be to let Youns
walk to first, filling the bases, so
that a force out would be facilf-
tated. He was willing to take a
chance that Kelly. who has been
weak in his recent batting. would
continue to be weak. SO he order
ed Bush to walk Young. Later
both Giant and Yankee players
said 1t was splendid example OF
real inside baseball strategy. The
break of the game ruined 1t, never
theless.
The sudden command displeased
BUSH. He wanted to work things
out his own way. He warmed up
ms tongue with couple of hos
words and then shouted at Hug
gins; Let's play baseball" Hug
gins was insistent, and repeated his
signal to pass Young. Bush obey
ed. His face showed his disgust
at each of the four wide throws
he hurled to the catcher.
And then Kelly, who bats right
handed appeared at the plate
Bush's first pitch to him was a
ball. The next was a speedy curve.

guessed wrong. Bush perhaps had
won a moral victory but everything
else was lost, Still apparently

a lazy throw up to. tho plate and
King killed it, but the ball fell
foul near the left field bleachers.
He swung easier the next timo and
dropped Texas Lacquer back pf

For time this afternoon Il
seemed the Yankees htssl awakened
from the spell of dumbness iii
which they tossed away every OPP
portunity to win that came to them
yesterday. But they never appear
ed to much awake as did the
bright and snappy Giants, who. iikt
