toward the winning of the National
LeHgue pennant by taking both games
of a double-header with Pittsburg Fri
day. Hard hitting by the leaders was
a feature of both games.
Mathewson pitched a masterly
game in the first battle, allowing but
five hits and not passing a man. Pitts
burg failed to score and the final
score was 7 to 0.
In the speond game Pittsburg
; brought the hat heavily into play,
' scoring four times In thp first three
: innings and knocking Wiltse out of
the box and tallying three runs In
ft he eighth. New York, however, had
already rolled up twelve runs and dis
posed of two of Pittsburg’s boxmen,
Camnltz and Leever, making the re
sult 12 to 7. Both games were mark
ed by clean fielding.
