End Hallahan ,JinX

Wild Bill" Hallahan, their ne mesis at St. Louis where he shut them out, was routed in short order Philadelphia. He was in the game just long enough to be charged with the defeat, retiring in the third to permit George Fisher to go to bat for him, with the score to in favor of the As.
 Hallahan in his second appearance of the series, did not have the con- trol in the pinches he boasted in his earlier and successful bid for pitching fame. He walked Dykes in the first inning and Jimmy scored when Cochrane doubled to right. Watkins kicked the ball around and Cochrane went to third. Simmons missed third strike for the second out, but Foxx was patient and drew the second pass of the inning. Miller, who had not been prominent figure at the bat crashed double to right, scoring Cochrane and sending Foxx to third. But for fast play by Wat kins in getting the ball on the bound with one hand, it would have been a triple.
 Jim Moore, Texas league recruit who was moved into the lineup in the place of the lefthanded Haas against the southpaw pitcher, was i,, A hi tation but flied out. Simmons started the game in center field with Moore in AIS regular patrol district in left. When the As forged ahead in the fourth. Haas was brought back to center.
 Hallahan developed another wild streak after two were out in the second, hitting Bishop and walking Dykes, although no damage was done, and when it was time for the pitcher to bat in the third Fisher took his place. The batsman who takes a wind up at the plate doubled to left but was left when Douthit grounded out
 
 Sylvester Johnson went in to pitch and Al Simmons greeted him with a home run into the upper tier of the left field stands. John son threw another home run ball with Bishop on first as a result of a pass in the fourth, and Dykes, who played throughout the afternoon as though he had no idea of being named as the goat" of the series, drove the ball into the lower deck of the left field stands for the second and last home run of the day. Foxx's double and two sec rifices were good for another run in the fifth.
 The last athletic demonstration of the day was put on in the sixth. Lindsey was pitching by this time as Ray Blades had struck out for Johnson in the sixth. Bishop walked, rode to third on a double by Dykes, and scored on a sac rifce fly from Cochrane's bat.
 Manager Gabby Street was playing the string out in the sixth, for after Blades batted for Johnson, he sent Andy High up to hit for sparky Adams, and finally at the close of the game it was little Andy who paved the way for the single Car dinal tally.
 Cards Make Last Stand
 High opened the ninth with a smash carrying all the way to the right field wall. Andy probably could have made two bases on the drive but with his team seven runs behind he properly played it safe and stopped at first. Watkins walk ed. Frisch lined a terrific drive at FoXx and there was no chance for Watkins to return to first base be- fore Jimmy was there with the ball so two were out with one gesture. Hafey doubled to left scoring High in q canter.
 Bottomley, who went to bat o2 times in the series and made only one hit and struck out nine times, drew his second base on balls of the game.
 Wilson's high fly to Miller in short right field ended the series.
 The Athletics were given a great ovation by the home fans as they trotted from the field. and hours aft,~ the game the beloved Connie Mack, who had won his fifth world series. was besieged by souvenir hunters who blocked exits 10 the park as they begged, Please sign this, Connie"
 Admits Team Is Great"
 Manager Mack said after the game that he was proud of his team and now would call it great" As only a great team can win two world championships in row.
 Connie paid tribute to the Cardi- nals as worthy foes' and said they had some great pitchers.
 When told that Manager Mack said the Cardinal pitchers were great, Gabby Street, St. Louis man ager, commented;
 So are his"
 The St. Louis players seemed agreed that their lack of success in the series could be charged to: Too much pitching"
