on the inside. He half grooved the
ball. That won't do. The ball must
snip the corner of the plate to be
really effective and it must be drop
ping and not sailing on a line.
The second extra inning game Of
the series was played by the Browns

there is nothing to be retracted
about their appearance as live
championship factor.
Giants Are Slipping Fast.
The Giants are shaky and sprawl
ing. All their excess percentage
gained in the east has simmered
away in the stewpan of the west.
Had they another western city to
play they might not even come home
in the lead. Cincinnati is booming
away like a Texas town sitting over
an oil well. The Giants can't break
even on the trip. Two defeats in st.
Louis, two in Chicago, one in Pitts
oargh and two in Cincinnati out of
eleven comes includes seven lickings.
They have won four games and haven't
enough left to go to make 1t an even
split with the west, and gossip is
beginning to circulate in the National
League that perhaps the New York
team can be beaten out after all.
