leticS in the fourth inning Of the

by retiring the first two batters
on two pitched balls.

portunity to score in the third,
when Jimmy Dykes. led off with

Capt. Charlie Grimm furnished
the first big thrill by hitting a
homer over the right-field wall IN
the fourth, with Cuyler on base.
FIRST INNING.
CHICAGO-Quinn failed to locate
the plate for Mcmillan and he walked
on four pitched balls. On count OF
two and two English fouled with the
hit-and-run signal displayed. Miller
then crossed the foul line to gather in
Englisi1s foul. Hornsby took the first
strike and fouled another. The next
two were wide, and the Rajah then
swung futilely at ball that cut the
heart of the plate. This was the
seventh time in the series that Hornsby
has famed. Wilson fouled Quinn's S
initial pitch, but whacked the next to
right field for clean single, sending
sixth hit of the series. When third
strike was called on Cuyler 1t was the
seventh time in four games that he had
famed. No runs.

to English back of second base. No
runs.

roller and tagged him at first. No runs.
ATHLETICS-Sim Simmons was at a dis
