Overwhelming victory registered on
Bowed with the weight Of three
straight defeats at he hands Of the
invaders from the Windy City, Hug
gins wandered out into the night still
insisting he would have won the game
II he hadn't run out Of ballplayers.
ave outhit them" cried Hug, with
tears rolling down his checks as big
a. derbies. 1--WE outnumbercd them,
our uniforms we're nicer, in fact, the
only thing they beat US In was IN seor-
ing runs There was some justice ~
this sad complaint, for the Yanks used
up SO many Of the reserves that the
mascot, Eddie Bennett, and Colonel
Tillinghast L'Hommedieu Huston were
the only men available as pinch hit
ters when a blow was needed In the
fatal eleventh.
IL wasn't q base ball game, II wns a
melee. from start 70 finish. Pitchers
and pinch hitters followed each other
90 fast that both managers found ut
ter strangers In their lineup before
the fracas ended, while Umpire Billy
Evans had 20 60 into "the silences'
and cogitate over the vexed problem
before he could decided where Whoozis
was batting, for whom. and why. No
one was more deceived than Higgins,
who was sending Pipp up 20 bat in the
ninth under the impression that Lefty
ODoul had batted for Whitley Witt
instead Of George Murray.
Three Runs Tie the Score
The strategy was so deep that the
players we're in over their heads. Take
the whiring ninth inning, when the
Yanks scored three runs and tied the
score with bombs bursting in every
direction. Ferdinand Stubbleheld
Schupp had entered the pastime with
the bases filed, and after forcing a
run over the plate with q base on
balls. he was carried of the field by a
rescue squad. Young Master Blanken-
ship heard the call 20 duty and be-
came the victim Of n terrible mistake
on the part Of the Chicago defense.
With the Yanks bombarding the po
sition from every side, Kid Gleason
semaphored "Man the gunsl" 70 his
fghting crew. but peering through the
smoke Of battle. Ernie Johnson at
shortstop, interpreted the signal 20
read Abandon Blankenship." There
fore. when ODoul crashed a scorching
crounder over second base, Ernie let
the ball roll around the grass while
the runs that tied the score went over
the plate.
The corpses Of defunct combatants
and the groans Of the wounded were
disturbing factors in the extra in
nings. Miller Higgins used up eigh-
teen full-sized athletes in the merry
mill before he ran out Of supplies.
Gleason tossed a mere thirteen into
the pit, but they came home with the
bacon. The great duel OF master
minds in the ninth inning, when Hug
gins and Gleason were matching
wrinkles and "reminiscences, was won
derful 70 behold.
Parade Of Batters and Pitchers
Il went something like this. Two
men out, bases full, Yanks three runs
behind. Robertson pitching for Chi
cago. Frank Baker, the Trappe
Mauler. comes in side door with bat
in hand. Robertson, Chicago, goes
out with feet on ground. Scnupp, left
handler, sails In on port tack. Baker,
left handed hitter, is Immediately re-
called. Holman climbs up on the
stage and accepts a base on balls, fore
ing in a run. Schupp is cast into ex-
terror darkness as Elmer Miller APP
pears to hit IN place Of Murray. Blank
enship casts anchor by the pitching
slab. Miller sees right handler and
sinks back into the dugout. Lefty
ODoul appears and scratches a hit
that ties the score. Fewster runs for
Holman. Witt forces O'Doul az sec
ond, ending inning, and 1000 speeta-
tors are revived with difficulty.
The revnmpcd batting order came to
life in great shape for Higgins yes
terday, with eighteen hits knocked
favagely 20 all corners Of the lot, in
GLIDING a looping home run by G.
Herman Ruth, the Sultan Of Swat, his
fifteenth Of the present gay season.
Ancient Harry Hooper got himself
home run, too, as did Johnny Mostil,
and Hooper's blow was the best Of all,
for II accounted fos three tallies, while
Ruth's brought IN only two and Mos
