an error. Mclnnis then fouled out to
Deal. Htrm.k ended the Inning by go

Then came the ninth and the victory.
Maranville was out through sharp
fielding, Barry to Mclnnis Deal smash
ed a terrific long fly which many of
the spectators believed Strunk ‘mis
judged. He ran in and then turned and
sprinted with his back to the ball but
could not quite reach it and Deal pull
ed up at second to the frantic Joy of
the Boston rooters. At this point sand
got Into the smoothly working Athletic
machine. Deal played off second base
and Hchang made n quick throw to trap
him. Deal Instantly saw the play and
dashed for third. He was about half
down the path when Barry got Bchang’s
thtow and he stood holding the ball as
Deni slid Into third base. Whether it was
because Baker wns not close enough, to
the bag to get the throw' etc whether
Barry believed it whs too late to head
off Deal, Is not known.
Stallings Wild With Joy.
Manager Stallings and the players on
the bench were wild with Joy and the
Boston rooters made el terrific din as
they realized that a run was in pros
pect. James struck out for the fourth
time, but this did not lessen the en
thusiasm of the Bostonians. Menu came
to bat as Collins and Mclnnis walked
oveV and spoke to Plank, and the heady
sc Wl baseman of the Mackmen made
a move with his head that was no
doubt a signal to the other players not
In the confab.
Whatever the Athletics tried to pull
off did not work out, for Mann smash
ed n low fly to rlghtfleld. Collins made
a wonderful try to get the ball. He
dashed back and leaped Into the sir.
The ball tipped his fingers and fell and
Peal was safe with the run that won
the game. Mann went to second on a
short passed ball, and when Evers was
given a base on balls. It looked n.s
though the Braves would score again.
Cathrt* ended the inning, however, by
forcing Evers at second, Barry to Col
lins.
James Wabbled a Little.
In the face of James' pitching It look
ed all over for the Athletics, but the
Boston twirier wabbled a little in the
ninth und things looked very danger-

JUST AS JAMES BEGAN
TO FALTER IN THE NINTH,
OHAMATIC CLIMAX CAME
In Pitchers’ Battle, Honors Carried Off By Twirler of the Bos
ton Braves in Second Clash For World’s Championship.
Plank, For the Athletics, Not the Enigma Expected to
Beaneaters—Was Saved Several Times By Sensational
Fielding of Mack’s One Hundred Thousand Dollar Infield
Philadelphia—ln a pitcher’s battle with
a dramatic climax usually reserved for
baseball fiction, the Boston Nationals
defeated the Philadelphia Americans
here today In the second game of the
world's aeries by a score of .1 to 0. As
a result of the victory, the Braves left
for Boston tonight with a two-game
leid over the Athletics and the aimed
advantage of playing the next two con
tests on their home grounds when the
series is resumed on Monday.
For Second Time.
Although the American League charpp
ions were forced to how, for the second
time In two days, to the superior play
of their National league riva.a, they of
fered more determined opposition than
was the e.,se Friday. For eight innings
the two clubs buttled behind the pitch
ing us James and Plank without the
semblance of an advantage. Tnen came
the M'eak In the game and once more
the Mackmen saw another world’s series
contest slip away.
James had been pitching unhlttable
hall and Plank, while not quite as ef
fective, had, with the aid of his re
markable Infield, held Boston scoreless.
The Athletics’ veteran twirler was
working as smoothly as at the beginning
of the game when Maranville faced him
at the opening of the ninth inning. The
phantom-like shortstop went out, Bar
ry to Mclnnis, and Peal, substitute third
baseman In place of Smith, stepped to
the plate. The Athletic followers al
ready were figuring on what chance
their players had to win out in the
ninth. Deal and James appeared to he ,
easy outs. The Boston third sacker,
who had lilt into three double plays on
Friday and forced three teammates In
today’s game, was not considered a hat
ting factor.
Deal Upset It.
It wns Deal, however, who upset
riank’s expectations and the Athletics’
chances. He drove a long double over
Strunk's head and a moment later stole
third when Schang threw low to Barry
to catch Deal off the base. Barry turn
ed to throw to third hut held the ball
and Deal was safe. Whether Baiter
was not close enough to the bag or
Barry believed it was too late to head
oft the runner. Is not known. Janies
fanned, but Mann lifted a low. puzzling
Texas Leaguer over Eddie Collins' head.
Although the latter made a great try
for the bad, he just touched It with his
fingers and sprawled in the turf. Deal
dashing across the plute with the solt
tarv run of the game.
The Athletics replied with a great ral
ly in their half of the ninth and James,
who had carried the game on Ills should
ers alone up to this point, began to tot
ter. The thousands of rooters for the
liuine club were stamping, cheering and
clapping In unison and Barry waited
patiently until James pissed him to
first Felning fanned but Walsh, bat
ting for I’lank. also was walked by tlie
rattled pitcher.
Deafening Uproar.
With two on and one out the fans felt
sure the Mackmen weVe going to
break through and win and the uproar
was deafening. Eddie Murphy, lead
olf man for the Athletics, stepped to
the plate and catching one of Juines'
curves full on the end of his hat, drove
a leaping grounder to the left of sec
ond tiase. Maranvllle sprang with the
crack of the hat and with a cat-like
hound clutched the hall atal with an
othe*.' leap touched the bag, forcing
Wash. With almost the same inolion
he snapped tile hull to Schmidt at first
ifor a double on Murphy and a second
later went down In a cloud of dust as
\\ alsh crashed Into him at top speed.
When be scrambled to his feet the other
players were running for the club house
and the game was saved.
Began to Totter.
Tills play earns at a most opportune
and dramatic moment, for James had
begun to falter afteV pitching a game

been aurpansed In a world's series

hoist or roller. This Is best demon
strated by the fact that 24 of tli* 27
putouts made by Boston were credited
to the infield or batteries.
Janies gave three passes, two coming
in the ninth inning when the Athletics
came near to scoring. The Mackmen
got two players safely past first and
had but one left on bases. Of the two
hits changed against James the one of
Collins' would nave been an easy out
for Evers, but for the fact that it hound
ed so high that the hatter heat the
throw by a step.
Sensational Flfeldlng.
Plank, while he pitched a splendid
game for his club, was forced to divide
more honors with his teammates than
James. The veteran's pitching was not
quite the enigma to the Boston hatters
that James' was to the White Elephants.
Plank several times was saved hy the
sensational fielding of Baker, Barry,
Collins and Mclnnis. He fanned six
Br ixes, Pitcher James striking out four
times In succession, gave four bases on
halls and hit one batter. Of the twenty
seven putouts made by the Mackmen,
the battery and infield accounted for
twenty-one. Plank had to watch the
bases closer than James for eleven Bos
tonians were stranded to the Athletics'
one.
Considering the closeness and strain
of the game both teams played remark
able baseball. Maranville and Deal got
mixed on Mclnnis' first foul in the
eighth inning und the shortstop was
hardly prepared for the chance. The
Athletics error was charged to Mclnnis,
who failed to hold a wide throw from
Barry although he stretched until he
fell over trying to get a clutch* on the
had. Hchang appeared to have diffi
culty in holding P.ank s delivery at ;
times, but escaped without a black
mark from the scorers.
The Schang Play.
Schang also figured in the only play
over which there was any aftermath.
| Following his double in the sixth in-
I nlng, he attempted to steal third when
| Gowdy dropped one of James' shoots.
I The Braves' catcher recovered the ball
; in time to nip Schang at Deal's station,
I but the Athletics declared after the
game he was safe. They claimed that
the game broke there for Boston, for,
with Schang safe at third and but one
out. the chances for a scoring drive by
the head of the batting ljst were ex
cellent.
Although the home fans were more
enthusiastic than on Friday .there was
little effort to find fault with the um
pires' decisions. They cheered lustily
and endeavored to rattle James and en
courage the Mackmen in the closing in
nings. but frankly acknowledged after
the game that the Braves' pitcher de
served to win.
Like Midsummer.
The sun shone with midsummer vigor
and as a resu t the spectators especially
j those in tlie bleachers quickly discarded
I coats and vests. Although there was
no Increase in the paid attendance the
surrounding houses appeared about to
break under the weight of the hundreds
that gathered on roofs, porches and at
the winnows. Fully 6,500 must have
followed the play from these points of
vantage outside Shibe Park. paying
from fifty cents to two dollars for the
privilege.
Boston Rooters.
Boston's royal rooters were very much
in evidence again before, during, and
after the game When the game was
won they paraded round the field head
ed by Captain Johnny Evers, Former
Mayor Fitzgerald and other celebrities.
Many still were celebrating in Philadel
phia tonight. According to the royal
rooters the Braves will receive the
greatest welcome ever given a baseball
learn when they appear Monday on the
field at Fenway Park. Close to forty
thousand fans are expected to gTeet the
players in the third game of the series.
Twice as Many.
Thla will be almost twice the attend
ance at either of the two games In this
city. The paid admissions on both days
were' the same. 20,502. Thla was due
to the fact that every seat in the
stands and bleachers were sold by ticket
and when all the coupons were honored
the gates were closed.
The receipts for the {second game
amounted to 349,639 of which the Na
tional Commission receives 34,963.90, t .e

quering their two best twirlers, Bender and Plank, knocking the former pitch
er completely out of the box, what will the various "Philadelphia-will-win"
boosters say? Of course, there's a comeback: “The series is not over yet."
However, this fact is realized, its simply a case of “not yet, but soon." Just
keep your eyes trained on George, he’s from around these parts!
It is claimed, Incidentally backed up by the records of the past season,
that the Athletics havh an edge on the Beaneaters In hitting, base stealing
nnd most everything, und then again, they have the superiority of having a
machine that is "just right.” Nevertheless, the Braves have managed to
overcome all this discouraging dope and so far have completely overcome the
Athletics In a I the various departments mentioned above, with the exception
of one: "Mack’s machine Is made up of cogs that have been tried an 4
proven and the best yet.” Now, take a slant at George’s, hl9 is a brand
new 1914 model, Connie’s model is an old one. ,
The Braves and Athletics Immediately caught the train for Boston, di
rectly after the game Saturday, in order to breathe a little of the Hub's air
just to get used to It before the third and fourth games that will be staged
there. For Mack is not even going to let any chance go, even so small as
the air, in his effort to retain tlis titje__fljf_pllotlng a team to the champion
ship of the world, basebally. - j
The Herald never makes predictions, that Is, eery few, (although It did
hint that Stallings had a "chance,”) but as the dope stands now, It looks bad
for those "Quakers.” Of course, anyone can say that much, but when one
comes to doping out baseball he has certainly bucked up against something
hard, for the old saying seems to show up every time: “One can never tell
In baseball.”
Manager Stallings will, in all probability, use that great southpaw of his.
Tyler, in the third game of the series, which as is well-known, staged in Bos
ton Monday. Now Connie Mack’s two best sluggers, “Home-run” Baker and
Collins, are lefthanders and these two players never play up to their regular
standard when a southpaw is manipulating the sphere. Looks bad for the
Philadelphians.
Rudolph and James both pitched wonderful hall, and it was on the enemy's
grounds at that. Now Tyler has the advantage of throwing his twisters on
his own home grounds, and a few other odds in his favor. If he should fall
to win his game
Gowdy has beten the real hitting star so far In the series. There’s al
ways a reason for a thing like this so maybe tills Is his: “Miss Einel
Clarke, of Chicago, has promised Harrv, that if the Stallings CTew oaptures
the world’s series from those Athletics, she will become his bride Just as soon
as the celebration is over.” By the way, Maranville, that peppery little
Brave shortstop. Is also about to take the matrimonial leap. Some blltheful
aggregation, that!
