to eighteen full innings, and four hours
and nineteen minutes by the watch,
before the men, now led by Bill Nc
Kechnie would acknowledge that the
Giants had beaten them. The score
was 9 to 8. 1t was the longest game

Giants in the last two years.

Carey Has Big Day
Long George was not the only star
of the game. Let not that ancient
war-horse, Max Carey, be forgotten.
Carey probably spent as successful a
day as any player ever did in any time
times and each time got on. base. He
made six hits--fve singles and a double
and received three bases on balls.
A perfect day at bat. indeed. Nay,
| Pluperfect, for the mighty Max scored
three runs, stole three bases, including
as perfect steal of home, at the ex-
pense of Jess Barnes, as was ever seen,
and had an extra busy time afeld pull
ing down seven flies, most of them
after long spectacular runs.
Johnny Gooch, the kid catcher, also
got six hits, including double. With
Carey and Gooch leading the assault,
the buccaneers got a total of twenty
two hits off the five New York pitchers
used in the game-Jesse Barnes,
Causey, Douglas, Jonnard and Ryan
Rosie Bill" Ryan got credit for win
ming the remarkable fracas, though he
pitched only from the fourteenth inning
onward. He allowed eight hits and one
run in the five innings, but he was
under terrific strain all that time.
The Giants made batch of nineteen
hits, little better than an average Of
one bingle around. Kelly, with his
| pair of homers, and Bancroft, with four
singles, doing the best against the two
Pirate pitchers.
Nose Yellowhorse started the game
and lasted eight rounds, being removed
to let Mattox bat for him. Morrison
did nobly in finishing out the game.

to get charged with the loss Of the

For the first time since Cozy Dolan

fifteenth frame, being sent in to run
for Heinie Groh. If the game had
gone much longer Jennings and Nc

passed Barnhart, filling the bases
with one out, and then Jewel Ems hit
into lightning double play, Bancroft
to Rawlings to Kelly. Bancroft and
Frisch, too, made numerous individual
star stops, and Young made two great
