of the world series here this after
noon.
The score was 3 to 0.

Ehmke, his teammates nemesis
of yesterday, famed three of the
first four batters to face him.
The fourth, Cochrane, who batted
third, walked after a 3 and 2
count.
English, who hobbled two yes
terday contributing to the Cubs
defeat was given a great hand by
the crowd and thanked them by
Smacking out a double to left in
the first inning.
EarnShaw. Connie Mack'S Selec-
ton vetoed EngliSh's bid for run
by tanning Hornsby and Cuyler,
who struck out twice each yeSterS
day.
Malone came back in the sec

this by retiring EarnShaw on
strikes with two on, ending the
Athletics frame.
Foxx knocked cut his second
homer of the series in the third
inning, scoring Cochrane and
Simmons ahead of him to put the
Athletics we'll in the lead.
The biggest winners in their respec-
tive leagues were opponents in the Sec
ond game of the world series. George
Earnshaw, lanky right-hander who &C
counted for % victories in the course OF
the regular campaign, was nominated
by Manager Connie Mack to pitch TO-
the Athletics in an effort to make 1t
two in row and he was pitted against
Pat Malone, the burly orthodox finger
who amaSsed one less victory for the
Cubs during the championship season.
Low-hanging clouds totally obscured
the sun and a stiff breeze blowing in
off Lake Michigan made the capacity
crowd of about $4,000 in Wrigley Park
shiver in its overcoats and ulSters.
Temperature was even lower than yes
terday and to the fans seemed not much
above the freezing point. The umpires,
whose tardiness in arriving made yes
terday'S game about Is minutes late In
getting under way, reported promptly,
and, following their confab with Capt.
Eddie Collins of the Athletics and Capt.
Charley Grimm of the Cubs, the contest
started right on time.

evenly divided, two balls and two strikes.
