pened. Now but two Athletics had to
be retired to give the broad-shouldered
Pat Malone, who had permitted but
two hits in eight and one third innings
ample revenge for a humiliating re-
verse he suffered at home in the second
game of the series.
Outs Never Made.
The outs never we're made. One
was. One never will be. Bishop, an
earnest cotton-topped lead-off man,
whose speciality is getting the pitcher
in a three-and-two hole, came up after
Wally French, former foot ball star,
had taken the sensational RUDE Wal
bergs place and famed ingloriously. A
few faint-hearted fans turned toward
the exits.
The bulk of the crowd of 10000 re-
manned They recalled that 48 hours
before the laundering herd of White
Elephants had wiped out an eight-run
lead and forged on to victory in a
single inning. There was but two-th1rdS
Of an inning left but the lead was two
instead of eight. They awaited de-
velopments. They came.
Malone got a strike and ball on
the patient Bishop and then another
hopeful but not enthusiastic spectators
Malone made the next pitch far too
good. It was over the outside corner Of
the plate and Bishop. left-handed
batsman, drove it a foot inside the
third base foul line for a single.
Mule Haas, the same lean chap who
co-operated with the sun and Hack
Wilson in manufacturing home run
good for three runs in Saturdays game,
came up There was nothing to wait
for and Haas swung ViciouSly at the

Athletics Hit Stride.
The ball travelled high and far to
right field, clearing the fence above the
pathetic figure of kiki Cuyler, who went
as far as he could in mad dash for
the ball, ever gaining altitude as it
went away from there. With that ball
went the bali game. The score was only
tied, but the Athletics we're in their
stride after an afternoon of impot2nt
hitting efforts.
Mickey Cochrane tried hard but his
smash went straight to Hornsby and
the Rajah tossed to Grimm for the
second putout of the inning. The
faltering Malone seemed himself again.
Capt. Charlie Grimm danced about
first base. pounding his glove and hold
to indicate that one more out would
be easy. It was not.
Simmons, bearing the responsibility
of keeping the AS in the ball game, let
a ball 60 by and then crashed into the
next to drive it against the scoreboard
in right center. The Milwaukee mauler
stopped at second. At another stage
of the game he might have continued
to third. but he was carrying the win
ming run with him and the. play was
to take no chance.
Jimmy Foxx. swinging three bats
with a grim, determined look, strange
ly out of place on his youthful face,
literally ran to the plate. The Ath-
letic policy has been to let AL start
something and Jimmy finish it. The
lad did not have the opportunity. Joe
Mccarthy yelled put him on" from
the Cub bench and four wide balls
were tossed to the disguised Foxx,
making a force play at every base.
This shifted responsibility from Foxx
to Bing Miller, a swarthy, game player
whose every base ball move is effort
less. Miller is known to American
pitchers as curve ball hitter" He
had driven one of Malone's curves to
left for a single in the fifth inning
and Pat had no idea of giving him
another.
Nothing But Fast Ones.
Miller saw nothing but fast ones. The
first was high, the second split the
plate, the third clipped the inside cor
ner for another called strike, the next
was over but low.
And then high one, limmed fast, a
wee bit outside and around the Shout
ders of Miller. A crash as the "Bingo"
swung and the ball started on line
between the maStodonic Hack Wilson
and fleet Kiki Cuyler. All the bulk of
