GIANTS AND TIGERS STRAIN EVERY NERVE AND MUSCLE
TO MAINTAIN NARROW LEADS IN THE FASTEST PENNANT
RACES EVER PULLED OFF IN THE HISTORY OF BASEBALL
HUM OF REDS
SENT COOS TO
' MICE
The Giants, with Leon Ames again
in form, won a pitcher's battle against
the Phillies yesterday by the score of
2 to 1. Bresnahan was out of the
game, and this materially weakened
the batting strength of the Giants, but
they won the game just the same.
This win puts them in first place
again, as the result of Chicago losing.
The Giants travel to Sleegtown todfty,
and open up a double-header, in which
Mathewson and Wiltse will pitch. The
giants should win both these games,
and if the Pirates and Cubs lose, well,
the pennant then is practically New
York's.
The Cults played the Cincinnati
Beds yesterday, Overall being pitted
against Dubec. The latter was wild
in the first few innings, but steadied
down, and was invincible. The Reds
batted out a victory incite ninth,
Hans Robert hitting safe with the
bases full and two out, scoring two
men.
The Pirates won from the Cardinals,
7 to 5, /nd moved into second place.
The Doves defeated t'ho Dodgers
in a pitcher’s battle, 2 to 1.
Giants 2, Phillies 1,
NEW YORK.—Yesterday’s game,
the last of the home series with Phil
adelphia, was won by New York, but
once the visitors appeared dangerous
ly near winning. A fast double play
robbed them of a run in the seventh,
when Ames intercepted Donlin's
throw to the plate, and sent it to
second, • where Bridwell caught Shean
going to second and shot the ball to
the plate in time to head oIT Magee.
Dooin's double, Moore’s single and
McCormick's fumble gave Philadel
phia a run in the eighth. The home
team got both runs in the opening in
nings on a base on balls, bad throws
by Moore and Shean, and a timely
single by Devlin. The teams will
play a double-header in Philadelphia
ts day.
