KILDDFF SENDS IN
ALL OF OMAHA RUNS
Kewpie's Singles Send Three
Rourkes Over the Rubber,
Enough to Win.
MERZ SCATTERS THE HITS
Back in Form, Lads
lea
mt
Fo
Kewpie Kilduff returned to form
yesterday. And Omaha ran away with
a nifty ball game by a 3-to-l count.
Kewpie had the old hickry club
working in big league style. Twice
he came to bat in pinches and twice
he cracked out singles. His hits sent
all three of Omaha's runs over the
plate.
The first round counter was marked
up in the fourth stanza. Ray Miller
opened the frame by dropping a Texas
leaguer into left field. He made scc-
d on. it before Coy could get the pill
into the diamond. After Krueger and
Forsythe went out, Kilduff leaped in
to the spotlight by combing a single
to center, scoring Miller.
Sends Two Home.
The other two runs were made in
the sixth. This time Miller started
things by drawing a pass. After
Krueger flew out he went to third on
Forsythe's single to center. Cyrus
took second when the Wichita in
fielders neglected to fiield Jackson's
throw in. Again Kilduff came to bat
and this time he speered a safety to
left. Both Miller and Forsythe gal
loped joyously home.
Wichita scored its lone tally in the
seventh on Litschi's single, an infield
out and Hannah's triple to right.
Tightens in Finches.
Otto Merz hurled a nice game for
Omaha. Otto was touched for eight
blows, but kept them well scattered
and was master of the situation when
ever pinches arose. In the second in
ning the Wolves cluttered up the
bases with three singles, but Hunt hit
into a double play neatly engineered
by Marty Krug.
A tall, cadaverous, corn-fed Kansas
busher, who answers to 'the name of
Hunt and chucks with his left mitt,
was on the firing line for the Wolves.
Hunt pitched a pretty good game, but
he couldn't subdue Kilduff, who, by
the way, is also from Kansas, and he
lost the game.
fltttl tjf mug oimitu "V"v'J ......
Kewpie by great work in the field.
Martv accented thirteen chances, an
unusual number, at second without a
sign of a miss. And every chance
was a hard one. He made one stop
and subsequent out which looked al
most impossible.
- Gray Is Banished.
Umps Miller and Catcher Gray pro
vided a little amusement for the cus
tomers in the seventh. Gray was re
citing a monologue behind the bat
and Miller insisted on making it a
dialogue. His part of the dialogue
was to bid Gray adieu. Gray hated to
leave and, on his way out, stopped
every two feet to tell Miller he was a
"homer." Miller refused, however, to
be disturbed despite pleadings of the
fans and he charged Mr. Gray a few
bucks for getting sassy. Jimmy Jack
son then hiked in from centerfield to
inquire the cause and nature of the
disturbance. The fans then wanted
Jackson chased. The bugs were in
clined to be bloodthirsty yesterday.
The Rourkes and Wolves will tan
gle again this afternoon, starting at
3:15. It will be the last chance of the
year to see Roaring Billy Rapps,
Crabby James Jackson and the rest of
the trained animals from Wichita in
action.

and was finally put out of the game. The

RED SOX GAIN IN
THE PENNANT RACE
Before Twenty-Five Thousand
Fans, Boston Takes Two
From Chicago.
DARKNESS ENDS ONE GAME
Boston, Aug. 16. The Red Sox in
creased their lead in the pennant race
today by winning two hard-fought
battle with Chicago. The first went
sixteen innings, S to 4. The second
game was called after five and a half
innings on account of darkness, with
the score 2 to 1.
Every able member of the Red Sox
team, with the exception of Carrigan
and Gregg, was pressed into service
for the first game, either as pinch hit
ters, runners or fielders. It was a
gruelling contest throughout and was
marked by numerous sensational
plays, Weaver, Eddie Collins, Scott,
Walker, Barry and Gardner figuring
most prominently. In this game Chi
cago got sixteen hits off three Boston
pitchers, against eleven for the Red
Sox off an equal number of Chicago
slabmen. But the Boston blows were
more timely and less scattered. In
the sixteenth inning Hooper was
passed after two men were down. He
stole second and scored when McMul
len made a bad throw to first on
Barry's grounder.
Boston scored its two runs in the
fourth inning of the second game on
singles by Hooper, Lewis and Gard
ner. Chicago scored its run in the
sixth on two singles and Jackson's
double. With two out and men on
third and second Foster was taken
from the box and Leonard substituted.
Von Kolnitz was setn to bat for Four
nier and struck out.
The attendance was over 25,000, the
largest of the season. Between the
games the world's championship pen
nant was raised with ceremonies.
