In the game that evened up the ries at three, Pittsburgh winning Carey scored one of the trio of Tuna so necessary to victory. Tt was in the deciding game of the play-off that Carey did his greatest Work at the bat. In five-trips to the plate inst. Walter Johnson, he made four . including three doubles.
