"These added to the spectacu lar, short but effective hittur of the winners and the " shifting train of Giant pitchers furnished a panorama of color of extreme-' exciting and satisfying to the fans. All nine runs came in the early innin-s. The Ne York club opened and closed i. scoring in the second imrne. Faber then steadied and turned xback the Giants for the remainder of the game, aided by perfect support on the part of his teammates . The failure of Schrupp to baffle the White Sox .was a severe disappoint ment to the Giants for the players had fiTured that their star left hander was the equal to Cicotte and wouW prove a winner when McGraw elected Uo start him. His downfall followed so closely by that of Anderson, com pletely disorganized the New York club, pitching staff, and none of the players would venture a prediction as to who would take up the burden against the Chicago stick weilders vhen the battles are resumed in New York 'on Tuesday ... . FANS LIE IIP FOR EIGHT BLOCKS BEFORE SUN-UP TO OBTAIN THE CHOICE SEATS Thousands Surround Comiskey Park Before Gates Are Opened and Many Are Disappointed; Weather is Perfect: Giants Confident Turn in the Luck is Due. ' , Comi.key Park, Chicago, Oct. 7. Undismayed by then setback at the hands of the Chicago White Sox, the New York Giants today resumed the battle that is to lead to the world'. series championship. The champions of the National league were in high hopes of capturing the second contest of the big base ball series and return to New York, from foreign fields, with an even break. ROWLAND CLAIMS EDGE. "We have got the jump on the Giants," said Manager Rowland of the American league pennant winners, before the game, and that means a lot to a club when it holds the edge on the other fellow. If you will look over our Beacon's play you will find that once out ahead of a rival in any series we played the Sox were rarely headed. The Giantt have a fine team and one that will take a lot jf goou bare ball to torn back." John McGraw, the Giants chieftain, wat nowise upset by yesterday's fame, which went to the Wlute box y the small acore of 2 to 1. Muggty is Confident. "The series has only started." said McGraw brieflv. He would trive no inkling who he intended to start on the rubber against the Sox. Charlie Herzog, the keystone sacker of the National league champions, thought Schunp would be sent against Com iskey s men, but many believed Schupp would not be started until the teams play on the rolo grounds, where the pitching mound is several inches higher and gives a pitcher of Schupp's type an added advantage It was believed that it "Ked aber warmed up good he would be P.ow land's -selection for box work. Faber has .wide, fast curves and a low breaking spitter which he does not always control. Camp All Night. Saturday's victory for the south side boys added a liner edge to Chi cago's already keen appetite for base ball and today all records were broken by the outpouring that tilled Lom iskev Dark and surcred around the bis brick stands unable to gain admit tance. Scores camped out all night awaiting admission to the unreserved held stands. un-up found a line of fans stretching eight blocks away from the turnstiles and then the rush to the south side ball yard began. From the residential districts, the stock yards quarter and 'from the lake front Chicago poured its thou sands into the vast reaches of Com- skey park. Long after the stands in the sun fields were filled and the gates closed long lines of people stood around outside the ball field with nothing to assuage their disappoint October borrowed a day .rom May The sun was brjght and warm with touch of mulsumi.ier haze in the air, but only enough to kill on a high sky that makes the judging of lofty fly balls troublesome to the outfielders. A light westerly breezy blew listlessly across the playini. field. The diamond and outer meadows were drier than yesterday and-in perfect playing condition. Brass Band Plays. Before the teams came on the field for batting practice, an industrious brass band entertained the crowd. Wolfgang and Benz took tho pitch ing mound during the White Sox bat ting practice. After the Uhite box had tried the ranges of the field against Benz and Woliang, Lefty Williams went to the hurling hill. Th Giants v ere evidently expect ing tha' Par would face them, fot McGraw sent out Al Demaree tc pitch to the Giants in their practice , Ball is Returned. The ball' which was driven for a home run into the left field bleachers by Happy Felsch yesterday was re turned to President Comiskey todaj by the tan who got it. The White Sox owner and Manage! Rowland put their autographs on thi ball and it will be auctioned off fo: the benefit of the American Red Cross. Shortly after 1 o'clock every seat in the bleachers was filled and rows of fans stood in lines behind the back field fences. There was every reaor to believe that yesterday's crowd oi 32,000 would be exceeded by the hip Sunday host. Practice Spirited. Batting practice was spirited and brisk and it was noticed that the Giants gave an unusual bit of atten tion to bunting, which indicated that they might drop their usual hit and run offensive for the sacrifice game in case they found the Chicago pitching diflicult of solution. The Giants took the field first for practice and they displayed much more pepper and dash than yesterday. When Zimmerman, on third, made a bobble the prowd got after him and gave him a vocal toasting. Zimmer man is the Cubs' old third sacker and it is the fashion -in Chicago to ride him a bit for old time's sake. The White Sox put in a lively fielding practice that brought. louA cheers from the home fans. Schuppl and Perritt worked out on the side lines for New York, while Reb Rus sell, the Sox big lefthander, and Red Faber warmed up for the American leaguers. Just before game time the band played the "Star Spangled Banner," while the spectators and players stood with bared heads. Faber and Schalk was announced as the battery for the White Sox. Schupp and McCarty was the bat tery for New York. Sport Calentar 7'ot ay ITonwA Shaw Ooenlnc of annual Hnrlnv. field (Man.)
