PHILADELPHIA, Octdber 32.— The iAthletics did {t with five hits. The American League champions showed the experienced base ball eyes at the opening skirmish of the world weries yesterday that a pitcher can be batted hiard and yet allow only five hits. ‘Those. five hits, small in number, bulked: big. They consisted of two homie rin ‘drives out of the park, two triples and a two bagger, and were good for & total of 16 bases. ‘Thesé five swats, all extra-base hits, enabled the Athletics to win the open- ing game of the world series from the Cardinals in amazing style by a score of 5 t0 2, Recalls no Precedent. I have tried' to search mgumemvry back in world series history, but I can- not recall a game in the classic in which one team made five runs out of five hits or an instance where every hit ‘was good for extra bases.

He Insists. BY CHARLES (GABBY) STREET, Manager St .Louls Cardinals, PHILADELPHIA, October 2.—If that's the best the Athletics have to offer, then we will beat them sure, even though we did lose the first game of the series. We hit enough balls hard to win an ordinary game, but had the misfortune to have them come when we had two men out. After see- ing Lefty Grove, certainly the best pitcher Mack has to offer us, I am sure that we will win the world series. Grove did not show a thing we did not face in our regular league games. He has speed, but I think Bill Halla- han, the left-hander of my club, who will go against the American League champions in one of the games, is faster than the star of the Athletics. Grove, as the records will show, did not hurl as good a game as Burleigh Grimes, who lost a tough-luck battle, We hit Grove for a fare-thee-well and | Ct & few breaks our way: would have told & different story. enth inning, for instance. If Douthit's smash on which Grimes was forced at second had gone through, the infleld would have been -playing in and Frisch's liner, of which Bishop made a leaping catch, would have been good for at least two bases. And that was the way it went. Grimes allowed only five hits. He will come back and win. The Ath- letics won't have all their safeties go for extra bases the next time he faces Lh:lm, as happened in the first of the series. Al Simmons hit a home run over the fence on a perfectly pitched ball.

I want to praise some of the young players on my club, those who had never gone through the mill in a world series before.

Ch.lrle'yfl Gelbert and hits count for distance, while only two of ours was for an extra base—doubles by Hafey and Prisch. The Cardinals’ misfortune came in that many of our safeties came after two batters had been retired. We hit more balls hard than did the Athletics, and we will continue to do so until the series is over in our favor. (Copyright, 1930.) GRAND FORKS, N.
