New-York tribune., 1922-09-11

Doubt as to the outcome OF the hnai
battle, which took place at Ebbets
Field yesterday, was dispelled early:
Greatly TO the satisfaction Of half OF
the 10000 spectators the Giants got
away to big lead and simply trampled
over the Robins as trained troop of
cavalry would step over horde OF
pygnies. The other half of the assem-
biage, hardened TO cruel fate, hoped
against hope for the Brooklyn rally
which failed to naterialize.
One good reason why Fiatbush root
ers were doomed to disappointment was
big Claude Jonnard. The big right
handler earned the biggest portion of
the glory for the Giant victory, and he
did not even have the honor OF starting
the game. Claude was called in when
Carmen Hill was rocking under an un-
expected assault Of hits in the third
inning. He spiked the attack and all
lowed run in the next inning, but
after that he was invincible. So we'll
did Jonnard disport himself that the
fans were wondering why he doesn't
start a game.
Jonnard was by far the best of the
quartet of twirlers on exhibition yes
terday. Hill started for the Giants
and lasted three innings, meanwhile al
lowing two runs. Ruether, his oppo-
ment and disappeared in the fourth,
after allowing nine hits for six runs.
Cadore was Ruether's successor. He
got by for two innings, but could not
dodge the heavy barrage which the
Giants lodged all day yesterday, yield
ing eight hits and the last four runs.
Giants in Hitting Mood
Although Ruether and Cadore were
battered unmercifulIy they had ample
excuse for their shortcomings. No
pitcher could have withstood the ter
riic concentrated bomba rdment of the
league leaders The Giants pounded
out seventeen hits, for twentyfour
bases, the collection including two
triples and three doubles. Groh, Young
and Snyder led the attack with three
hits apiece.
The first of the extra base hits came
in the first inning. It was long
triple by Heinie Groh after Bancroft
had opened with a single. Frisch's
sacrifice fly scored Groh.
This lead was augmented by two runs
in the third inning, with Bancroft
again starting the fireworks. He
walked, went to third on Groh's single
and scored when Griffith threw past
High. Groh reached second on the err
ror and Frisch's sacrifice bunt and
MeuSefS Sacrlhce ny put delnie across.
The third was also the inning in
with the Robins did their heaviest hit
ting and Knocked Hill off the rubber.
De Berry singled, Ruether doubled and
Olson singled for the first run. Hill
| suddenly developed fit of wildness,
passing Griffith and filling the bases.
McGraw was taking no further chances
on Hill and Jonnard stepped in. Wheat
hit sacrifice fly which scored Ruether,
but Myers passed away peacefully.
Ruether disappeared in the fourth
when Snyder, Bancroft and Groh each
doubled, accounting for two more runs.
Jonnard also yielded a run in this in
ming when High doubled and De Berry
singled. The Robins did not score
again until the last inning.
The Giants, however, refused TO let
up in their attack. A triple by Frisch
and Meusel's single brought in the
seventh run in the lucky inning and a
pass and successive hits by Frisch,
Meusel, Young and Kelly accounted for
the last three runs in the eighth.
Sehmandt and De Berry, with a
double and single respectively, ac-
counted for Brookiyn's run in the
ninth.
