el i Picking 'AS SERIES TASK BECOMES HARDER | | i PROGRESSES All Games Are Crucial, But Today’s Battle ls! “Crucialist” — Hoyt and Ruth Show Gameness in Fifth Fray. 'BY DENMAN THOMPSON. EW YORK. October 11.—Ever: N the With the Yankees “crucialis games to two. as a result of the 3- registered over Art Nehi for a sec finds himseli in the foreseen predicament of having to eatrust his pitch- jug assignment to Harry Harper, a strictly unknown guantity, or rely o Bob Shawkey, who blew up com Gther hand, can call on Fred Toney, who failed the same day Shawkey did, but looked much better than his rival, or Jess Barnes, whose fine work over the greater part of the route in finishing that game enabled the Giants to cop it. it is a gamble for both pilots, with Hluggins taking the greater chance, because circumstances are such he has no alternative. If McGraw sHould start Barnes and happen to lose with him the Yankees would be but one =ame removed from their goal. and the bad moral effect on the Giants of having only Toney. already Knocked out of the box onece. with the proper amount of rest to fall back on can be well Imagined. Yanks Not Topheavy Favorites. Should the National Leaguers use Toney and win with him against the crratic Harper. however. their chances ‘for ultimate vietory with the games merely tied at_three apiece would be regarded as aMmost ax zood as those of the Yankees are now. before the sixth game has been played. for the American Leaguers are anvthing but topheavy favorites despite the ‘act that they have one wmore victory to their credit than the Giants. The morning lin; Tomey will be pit Lut the adage, “You n can tell.” probably is more appli ball than any other sport and the aft- ernoon may develop some startling rprises. Among them is the pos- o Silility that Harper will furnish the kreatest upset to the dope ¥et record «d by subjugating the « ts. ensack Harry's flightiness is so well Known that his & winning effort have been thorough- 1y discounted in advaunce, but the for- mer Washington southpaw is nothing if not game, Harper Has the Ability. He possesses prowess sufficient to Aiterally stand, the Giants on their heads and has all the characteristics of a “money player.” When in pos- session of control. which Is the case all too infrequently. however. thefe is_no left-hander i the game more effective. 1f Handsome Harry can curb his tendency to too great liber- Ly in the matter of p: el disastrous’ wild p al junctures the Giants may be igneminiously whitewashed for a third time, but it is probable in any event that supporterk of the Yankees will have several attacks of heart failure while he toils. Walter Hoyt took a long stride to- ward the niche occupied by those im- modtals who have won three games in a world series when he scored his second_triumph in the rubber contest terday and again against Nehf. who was his opponent on_the first ion. He ylelded more hits than th iants' southpaw—ten as com- pared with six—and issued two passes 1o one for Nehf. but displayed more stuff_in (he pinches and got better backing on both attack and defense. Hugmen Show Class. As in the first two games the ‘ankees outplayed the Giants, ran the bases with more daring, dis- more cunning in the execution ecir offense and fielded with more t and dash. Without the re- markable support accorded him both at bat and afield Hovt would have had a mighty tough time of it gain- ing the verdict despite his courageous and capable box work. Babe Ruth, who should have been confined ta a bed instead of exert- ing himseM through nine innings:of =rueling base ball, clearly showed the effects of the painful injury to his left arm and a case of Charley _lorse in his right leg. He furnished three of the four strike-outs Nehf chieved and was badly fooled on ch occasion, vet was a prominent factor in the rally that gave the Yanks their winning margin when he caught the enemy flatfooted With @ perfect bunt. xt to Hoy Dl afternoon Bol nary of the was Meusel. The Yankee gardener came through with a productive double, following the Ruthian bunt previous- 1¥ referred to. in addition to a single @ pal factor in sings with < well es perfect in execution. Error Gives Giants Rum. A fumble by MeNally on a mean- bounding rap from the bat of Burns paved the way for an unearned run right at the outset, the only time the iauts had been able to score first in any of the games, and their sole tally in this contest. The next four Mc. iiraw men got on the bases. That Hovt got off lightly as he did is Znificant of his courage and capa- was forced when Bancroft slow roller to Peck.

Ruths the home run king of all time, who the day pre- vious had knocked a ball out of the lot, furnished the surprise element of bunting. e does evervthing well ;and impressitely, ewen to striking out, and this effort was no exception. | It was a well placed tap that caught ntield flatfooted, and he Bob Meusel | left the Giants’ beat out Nehf's throw. then socked a lusty double to that cashed the Bambino. Me took third as Rawlings handled P slow roller, and tallied on sacrifice fly. the throw of Burns being 80 wide that Meusel was not com- pelled to slide. Opportunities Are Few. The Yanks had but one real oppor- tunity to tally thereafter, but no more runs were necessary with Hoyt hurling in such brilliant fashion. It was af- forded in the fifth by Miller, who doub- | led to left center with two down, and was left when Peck fouled to Irish Meusel. _ Peck scratched a single through Frisch in the eighth, but was stranded when Ruth waved unsuccess- fully at three pitched, balls. The Giants loomed dangerous in the third when Frisch. leading off, was,| credited with a hit on a bad bounding bail to Ward. The Fordhamite was forced by Young. Kelly was called out on strikes, but Irish Meusel sent his mate to third by eonnecting safely for two bases. Then Rawlings fouled harm- lessly to McNally. Smith walked in the fourth and was doubled up stealing when Burns fanned. and _Kelly’s Texas leaguer to center in the sixth was nullified when Irish | Meusel forced him Make Threat in Eighth. The next reat threat of the National Leaguers developed in round eight, and it_was Bob Meusel who was_the prin- cipal factor in rendering 'it” impotent. With Frisch disposed of, Young got a bingle on a drive that MeNally knocked down, but could not ferry to Pipp in time. Kelly then sladhed a safety past Pipp that had all the earmarks of a two-bagger. but Meusel gauged the course of the ball bounding off the right-fleld wall perfectly and with a beautiful throw to Ward nailed Kelly sliding _into second. Pipp then raced over close to the stand to snare Irish Meusel's foul and end the menace. Still another thrust by the Giants that was fraught with pessibilities was made in the final frame, when Rawlings started with a stiff rap down the third- bage line that McNally made an inef- fectual dive for and which netted two bases. But here Hoyt displayed his mettle by causing Smith to pop weakly to Ward, fanning Snyder, put in to hit for and ihen whifing Burns. i | | pay posal every hour in the year. TURE SERVICE.

'—l 9 et N SIDELIGHTS ON SERIES EW YORK, October 11.—Umpire-in-chief Rigler yesterday cau- tioned Hoyt against discoloring the ball with Bancroft at bat in the first inning, and with Young up in the same round again halted proceedings and tossed out the sphere the Yank hurler was using. On two occasions later he discarded balls that failed to comply with specifications, but Hoyt was net feazed. Umpire Moriarty, holding forth at fiyst base, checked the proceeding: with Miller at bat in the fifth and walked over to the Gilants' bench. where he threagened to banish a par- cel of them unfess their objectiofable rooting was discontinued. Burns made a brilliant running catch of a liner to left center by McNally He had to leap to spear the Jball. The fans nre hoping that Ruth can last through the series, even those who sympathize with the cause of the Giants. His gameness in carrying on, although plainly in wretched physi condition, was applauded on every oc- casion offered yesterday. The Monday crowd, although not of capacity proportions, was the most enthusiastic vet, as’befitted the most thrilling contest staged to date. Hoyt whiffed hin piteh opponent, Nehf,?on three pitched balls In the fourth, and Smith, who was on first by virtue of a pass, was doubled up by Schang's peg to Ward when Hoyvt also fanned Burns, after pitching three wide ones to him at the start. A shiver of apprehe! the crowd when the Yanks took in sight. When the Babe finalty ap- peared and limped to his station in the garden he was given a fine hand. Bancroft's mttempt to bumt in the| seventh resulted in a little roller that Pipp gathered in without having to take his foot off the initial sack MeGraw ol voung Pat Shea w bull pen .when Nehf gave way, Snyder as a pinch-hitter in the ninth, vith Rawlings awaiting succor o second base. Their gervices were no required, for Hoy®.fnade Snyder look foolish with a wide third strike, and followed by whiffing Burns, too. Except on the oecasion that Ruth bunted, he was tied in knots trying to connect with Nehf's sharp-break- ing _curves. The Bambino swung lustily on every occasion and seemed to miss some of them by a foot. Nehf and Kelly displayed team work in retiring Fipp ninth, the pitcher taking Kelly's toss on the run at first base after the in- itial sacker made a fine stop. Hoyt's feat of holding the to one run in eighteen innings so bad for a youngster of hardly more than voting age. Hoyt can be pardoned for indulging in a gloat or | two.

In ad- dition to the muff he made when Bob Meusel hit him like a ton of brick in the second, Schang's important double " in the ,third “was a vicious smash that ‘went right Frisch, and Peck's safety eighth also traveled past the Ford- hamite. 4 Busy mew; Ground pre: sideshows that attract crowds after the main show is over.
