| THE RISMARCK TRIBUNE, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 1930 Failure to Take Chances Offered Them May Cost Giants Loop Flag . CUBS PLAY JUST FARSAINTS SLIP FULL GAME AN AND ) TITLE CHANCES SEEM HOPELESS BASEBALL BUT STILL HAVE GODLY MARGIN McGraw Men Gain Only Half Game Yesterday as Cubs Bow Before Pirates SPLIT BRAVE TWIN BILL Athletics Gain Full Game on Washington as Yanks Get to Sad Sam Jones (By the Associated Press) If the New York Giants fail in their attempt to overtake the Chicago Cubs in the hectic race for the National league pennant, their failure can be attributed in a large measure to their inability to take the chances of- fered them. The Giants have had several fine opportunities in the last |, ‘week or two to gain ground while the Cubs have been playing only .500 ball, winning 10 games and losing as many, but the Giant gains have been very small. A great chance came the way of the Giants yesterday as they engaged the Boston Braves in a doubleheader while the Cubs were taking a 9 to 6 beating from Pittsburgh's up-and- coming Pirates. But the total gain for New York was a half game. The Giants won the first game with diffi- culty, 5 to 3, and lost the second 11 to 7. The result of the day's action left ‘New York three and one-half games back of the Cubs while Brooklyn and St. Louis, which had no games sched- uled, gained just as much ground, finishing four and one-half and five and one-half games behind first place respectively. ‘The Philadelphia Athletics cele- brated the occasion of their 90th vic- tory of the current season by picking up 8 full game on Washington as the result of the two American league games played yesterday. While the \ world’s champions were trouncing the Boston Red Sox, 11 to 4, the New York Yankees were breaking the jinx the Senators have held over them most of the season by a 10 to 7 count, hing’ ‘A recruit outfielder led the A’s to triumph.
