iiiff double, which bounded badly
against the center gardener's shoul
der, permitting Rawhngs to score all
the way'from first.
tver since three to nothimr ceased
to be the conventional score of the
big series games since the teams
went into the third battle and the
tide turned to the Giants' favor, the
club first to score Jias been beaten
out in the end. That is the history
of each game from the third down
to and including today's seventh
contest.
Oftener in trouble than his twirl
ing adversary. Douglas pitched him
self out of trouble on three occa
sions and he was accorded impreg
nable support in fact, the Dlav of
the Uiants m the ticld shone with
luster not attained in any of the
earlier games , and with ' Shufflin'
Phil working more effectively than
in. cither of his earlier starts, in both
of which he drew Mays for a pitch
ing opponent, the 1 anks on- often
sive deserved no more than the one
run they got.
McNally Injures Arm.
Yet had the Yank defenders per
formed with as much brilliancy afield
as their rivals, that one run would
have sufficed.
Mike McNallv. the sensational
third baseman of the Yankees, was
forced out of the game, by an in
jury to his throwing arm after he
had hit in the lone run his team
acquired, and J. Franklin Baker, one
time reigning monarch of the home
run clouters, played at his old posi
tion from the third inning on and
poled out two of the three singles
for which Douglas was touched aft
er the Yanks third turn at bat.
Largely for want, of sharp play
in the outfield to hold safe drives
to singles, four of the Giants six!
hits went tor two-base hits. Ban
croft punched the first of these tp
left center after Burns flicd out in
the opening inning, and advanced
to j third - after Miller bagged
Frisch's long- fly to center. But
Mays contributed a fielding gem by
knocking down Young's sharp bid
for a hit through the box and got
his man at first. ' . j

The Huggins' horde drew- first
blood in the second, a- scoreless
frame for both teams in the first
five games. Pipp fouled off enumer
able pitches before he turned a loop
ing double into left field. Ward
dumped down a martyr bunt, mov
ing the some time "pickler" to third.
With the infield drawn in McNally
crashed a single between Rawlihgs
and Kelly, Pipp counting.
Schang forced McNally, Bancroft
to Rawlings, McNally r sliding into
second to prevent a double play. In
so doing, Mike wrenched his throw
ing arm at the shoulder and although
he played third in the following half
inning and was called upon to throw
out two Giants at first, he gave way
to Baker at the start of the Giants
third.
Rawlings Spears Drive. A
After the force out on McNally
in the Yanks scoring inning, Mays
lined one towards right field as
Schang raced secondwafd. Raw
lings crouched, then stretching his
full length leaped into the air and
brought down the scorching drive.
It was the feature play of the day
and by far the flashiest of the series
to date.
Fewster opened the Yank's third
with a hit past Frisch, but Emil
Meusel cut him down at second try
ing to stretch it Ruth's substitute's
daring was costly for Peck followed
with a looping hit behind short field
on which Fewster might have gone
from first to third. Douglas steamed
up. Miller popped to Bancroft and
Bob Meusel struck out.
Burns doubled to left with two
down in the Giants' half of the inning,
but Bancroft fanned.
After the Yanks had gone out in
order in their fourth the Giants
came back and tied the score. After

Frisch made a clean theft of second,
an all important steal as it proved,
for Irish Meusel followed with a
short center field safety on which
Frisch registered the tying run.
, Burns Gets Double. '
Burns rated another double when
his ordinary hit to right center .got
through' Miller with two out in the
third. Hughey Jennings bade Burai
attempt to strech it into a triple, but
Miller recovered in time to cut him
down at" Baker's station with a relay
via Peck.
Ward, who made three corking
plays - in throwing out Bancroft,
Frisch and Young in turn ' m the
sixth, spilled the beans in the G'ants'
seventh. Kelly had rolled out weak
ly and E. Meusel had whiffed when
Rawlings tapped to Ward, his rival
second sacker. Ward booted thi
ball and Snyder followed with a
sharp-ground hit to the right of Peck
which should have been but a single.
Miller raced, intent upon a play
on Rawlings going to third. The ball
hopped awry, however, and RnwlingS
continued on to the plate and when
Snyder reached second being credited
with the flukiest of doubles. Mays,
doubtless disgusted with his support
but seemingly unperturbed, r then
fanned Douglas.
' Miller drew a pass with two out
in the eighth and Baker singled past
first wkh two gone in the ninth, but
neither was able to advance. .
