, sistent abandon for the first time in
! the series and the Senators, reserves
and all, could not hold them in
check.
Moore, Traynor and McInnis, tax
ing Granthams place at first base
and playing regularly for the first
time in his sixth worlds series-also
| figured in various stages of the scor-
| ing fray. In fact every member Of
| the Pirate crew except Aldridge
contributed at least one safe blow

! the quartet of Washington twirlers
Aldridge's bat was not needed
however. and the big right handler
carried his full share of the laurels
| in the steady confidence and skill
| funess with which he checked most
of the threats of his formidable
foes.
Barnhart was perhaps the biggest
f., gun in the buccaneer battery. For il

lacking conflagration in the third in
ming, when he drove in the first
Pittsburgh run: dashed out the de-
cisive stroke when he scored Carey
in the seventh with what proved to
be the winning run, then completed
his job by bringing in the sixth and
final tally himself in the ninth on
the wings of Wright's. drive off Mar
berry's pitching and Bluege's glove.
While he finally retired under this
barrage, Coveleskie paved the way
for his own downfall by his instead

passes to Carey and Cuyler that
started the fireworks in the third in
ming, permitting these two speed
merchants to dash over on Barn
hart's hit and Traynor's sacrifice
fly.
1t was another walk to Moore IN
the seventh that opened the second
Pirate drive, in which successive
hits by Carey, Cuyler and Barnhart
sent Coveleskie from the hill.
Into this situation young Win Bal
lou stepped to check the rally by
tanning Traynor while Cuyler WAS
trapped off third in an attempted
double steal with Barnhart.
Zachary was an easy target. He
escaped with only one run being
scored off him in the eighth due to
Wright's double and Single by Me-
Innis, but was knocked out in the
ninth after Barnhart walked and
Traynor slashed a single to left.
Marberry coming to the rescue, was
found for a run producing hit by
Wright, scoring Barnhart, but Nc
Innis hoisted to Goslin for the third
out.
But for a lucky escape by Coveles-
kie in the fourth inning when the
Pirates failed to score after filling
the bases, and a sensational stop by
Joe Judge in the fourth, the damage
by the invaders might have been
even greater.
Stan Harris, making clever play
to retire Wright on a ball DETECTED
by Coveleskie's glove, cut off the first
inning sortie while Judge, in the
most startling defensive play of the
game, plunged and grabbed Careys
liner in the fourth on the first base
line then touched the bag for the
third out with runners winging their
way from first and third. The stop
cut off what looked a certain double
and brought terrific ovation from
the crowd.
Washington shad it's full strength
back in the game with Ossie Bluege
at third base for the first time since
he was "beaned" by Aldridge in the
second game of the series. His field
ing was a help to the champions,
while at bat he showed he had no
fear of the Pirate finger by slam
ming out double.
The Senators, spreading their three
runs over as many innings, missed
as many good chances to score as
did the Pirates but they found Aid
ridge at his best when the danger
was greatest.
