. The end of Ciipotte's pitching and
, '--the runs that ultimately won the

the fourth inning. All the damage
was done with two out. With Kopf

i with a wild throw to first by- Ci
V cotte and a bad throw to the plate
f, by Jackson, which the pitcher inter-

this inning was sent over the Asso-

The rest of the game was played

show, cleanly, Cicotte pitched
through the nine innings,

Cicotte's next appearance in the
series was in the sixth game whn
Cincinnati had four victories to g
credit against one defeat, Richard
Kerr, the diminutive left-handed
pitcher, having shut out the champ
ions in tne third game, the vetersn
twirler who .today confessed the
big gambling deal, went through nine
innings' and held his,opppnents to
seven bits. Chicago won the gsme
4 t9 1? hitting Salle? hard in the
firsj f'v$ innings. Jackson and
Felsch each
got two hits and be
twe.en them drove in all of Chicago's
runs.

p .Besides the two defeats registered
jcjjj against Cicotte in the series, three
others were chalked up against
Iaude Williams. The latter, a "side
g arm" left bander, was wild in the
fij second and fifth games, which went
to the Reds, 4 to 2 and 5 to 0. In
