MONDAY, OCTOBER, 12
DESPITE HIS TWO DEFEATS, JENNINGS IS STILL VERY CONFIDENT
non slew up
IN THE EIGHTH
ID CUBS IN
"HlC'AGO.—After eight innings ol'
clock work baseball Sunday, "Wild
Bill" Donovan, premier pitcher of the
champions of the American league,
weakened under the prolonged strain,
and the Chicago world's champions
captured their second game of the
present scries. 6 to 1.
Detroit's hopes, which were high
after seven innings in which Chicago
had made only one hit, were dashed
in the eighth. In that sensational
portion of the game Donovan was hit
for a home run, a 'triple, a double and
three singles. Incidentally, he walk
ed one man and allowed another to
score on a wild pitch. Overall, on the
contrary, was steady throughout the
game, holding the Tigers to four hits
and one run. That run marked De
troit's despairing effort in their half
of the ninth.
Donovan's Work Fne for Seven In
nings.
Nothing could have exceeded the
excellence of Donovan’s work up to
that fatal eighth. He had speed, an
assortment of curves, which he mixed
up in baffling style, and he cut the
corners with the greatest precision
and speed. He had the best of Chi
cago's batsmen swinging wild, and
twice struck out the redoubtable
Kling. Not until the fifth did the
world's champions connect with his
wizard curves. Then the distinction
fell to Overall, who, considering t ."H
high class of ball he pitched, did not
need the added glory. But he did
it—poked a short fly just beyond
Downs —and the Chicago enthusiasts
oried loudly for a run. It was their
first legitimate chance for ridding
themselves of the excitement. Dono
van, however, only smiled, and, a
moment later, the side was retired
on a flashing double play. Then Ov
erall passed Downs, and the latter
was sacrificed to second, where his
obsequies as a runner was perform
ed. This was farther than Chicago
went. Overall reached first because
Rossman, who stopped his grounder,
instead of covering the bag himself,
waited for Donovan to do bo, and the
latter dropped his throw.
But the big Chicago pitcher got no
further. Again in the sixth Overall
reached the initial sack on his single,
but with these two exceptions Chicago
could do toothing with Donovan's de
livery—that is, up to the eighth.
Then it was different.
Overall’s Pitching Masterly.
Overall’s pitching was masterly. He
was found tor only four scattered
hits, no two of which came in the
same inning, and one of which has to
be counted because Overall and Kling
both went after Schaefer’s bunt and,
each stopping for the other to field it,
it went for a hit. He Issued passes
tw Crawford and Mclntyre, who
hit above .800 all season, were unable
to connect safely with his delivery.
That he was effeotive in holding down
Crawford with the kind of ball he
pitched was remarked by critics of
the game. Crawford is known as one
of the surest hitters of a high ball in
either league, yet Overall curved
them around his neck or shot them
straight across without getting into
trouble. Kach side was credited with
an error, but neither of them figured
In the score.
Merry Widows Cause Trouble.
Up to the eighth, the game was a
pitcher's battle, with both sides for
the most part going out one. two,
three. It began to look as If the ex
perience of last year's championship
series, when the same pitchers work
ed, would be repeated, namely, a tie
game. There was comparatively lit
tle choice. The spectators were too
highly keyed by the neck-aud-neck
struggle to indulge in much cheering.
And besides, despite bright* sunlight,
the air was rather chilly, which also
had a subduing effect. There were a
number of rugs and blankets used
with comfort In various sections of
the stands. The main grandstand
held a fair sprinkling of women, whose
headgear, when It hapened to be of
the latest sweeping model, which was
nearly always, created considerable
merriment, not untlnged with malice.
The stand was crowded, and in one
wing men and boys stood up and
cheered wild whenever a women with
the gigantic fall fashion In hats walk
ed down the aisles. Outwardly the
applause was good-natured, hut it had
its inception in the fact that one of
those hats would block the view of
half a dozen spectators, while any one
sitting at the side of a woman thus
bedecked had to lean far aside to
keep out of range. However, with the
beglning of play, the mockery of
cheers ceased and the fair spectators
saw the game serenely through.
Tinker the Hero.
To Jon Tinker belongs the credit
for breaking, in the eighth inning, the
spell which Donovan had held over
the Chicagoan* for ao long. Stein
feldt had hi ruck out, and Hodman had
reached firat because Schaefer, after
a beautiful one-handed pick up of hla
weak grounder, had thrown low. The
crowd scarcely hoped for more than
a single, and hardly expected that,
when Tinker came to bat. Donovan
aent a fast waist-higb In shoot over
the plate—that la to say, partly over
It. It never got all the way, for the
‘stocky Chicago shortstop, who had
already popularised himself by fast,
clean fielding swung viciously. The
bail soared high, so high that Ip
seemed certain It must drop Into
Cobb's hands, a* that fielder was play
ing well back as a result of previous
experiences with Tinker. But there
was an unsual amount of energy be
hind the Mt, and It sailed high and
clear Into *the stand In right field

real cheering of the game.
Horns were blown, bells rung and
throats strained to Increase the ova
tion. Manager Jennings sought to
persuade Umpire Klein that the hit
should go for oply two bases, but
Klem only smiled. Such have always
gone for home runs. The ground
rules provided that hits into the over
flow crowd should restrict the run
ner to two bases, but this certainly
had nothing to do with that tremend
ous wallop of Tinker’s. The applica
tion of the rule was illustrated by the
next man at bat, “Noisy” John Kling.
Kling drove the first ball pitched ifdo
the overflow crowd in left field and
stopped running when he hnd reached
second base. This onslaught had af
fected Donovan, but he stll woiled and
retired Overall on a weak grounder.
He went to pieces, however, when
Sheckard, the next balsman, singled
over second and scored Kling. The
whole team, In fart, seemed to be
stunned by the suddenness of it all.
Sheckard made a desperate steal of
second, and went to third on Kvers’
safe bunt. Rossman, in a moment of
absent-mindedness, broug.V about by
the genera! catastrophe which had
happened to Detroit’s aspirations, al
lowed Evers to Hash away from first,
and reach second standing up while
the ball remained In the first base
man’s hands. Schulte tripled to deep
left-center, scoring Sheckard and Ev
ers. Then, to finish matters up. Dono
van threw a wild pitch, and Schulte
trotted across the platp with Chi
cago's sixth and last run. Chance
walked and stole second while
Schmidt was musing over the ball on
Detroit's sudden fall in fortune, hut
Stelnfeldt flew out, retiring the aide.

Detroit substituted D. Jones for
O'Leary for a. final try for victory,
and the substitute was given his bate

I ford's out, and scored when Cobb
Singled to center. Rossman, however,
hit into a double play and the game
was over.
The attendance, due largely to the
chilly weather, was only 17.7fi0 paid
' admissions, according to official fig
ures, made public after the game.
The gross receipts were $20,967.

He drew $2,100 hts Hist year, $8,500
