In the 1916 series Ruth won the longest world's series game yet played, when he also beat a left-hand as onl in 22 in one run has been on him 23 innings, and er, Sherrod Smith of Brooklyn, by to 1 in 14 innings.

However, Vaughn pitched as good a gamea as he prabably Will show during the remainder of the series and lost it Barrow seems to have the advaatage in pitchers, us he has Bush and Mays to go in tomorrow, and the Cubs, with their numerous right-handed hitters, especially Merkle, Mann and Paskert are fisured weaker against right-hand- as ers than left-handers Tyler is a certainty as n'lnra(o.\v pitcher tomorrow, while Bush will ne doubt be in the box for Boston. That the Red Sox cannot do a great deal with left-handers w proved by ths way they nibbled at Vaughn, and Ty- ler may he able to tie up the series to day. When he is right his delivary is just as puzzling as that of Vaughn, 1 and it is unlikely that the hard-hitting, Cubs again will be shut out Yesterday's game had few thrills and dragged at times, but on the whola exceeded the average brand of world's serles play. Far instance it is seldom that you find such splendid fielding and pitching in the same game. Both clubs were practically 100 per cent perfect in these departments; in fact. the sides went out so regularly that it became a rather dull game despite its closeness. The nearcst thing to a new wortd's series hero developed vesterday was Whiteman, who behaved in left fleld in the same stellar manner in which Duffy Lewis roamed the same pasture in the warld's series in 1916 and 1016, when he and Hooper were the stars of the series. Whiteman also hit up tb the old Duffy tandard During the regular season Barrew had Ruth bat fourth whether hs pitched played in the outfield, but today he had Babe at the foot of the list and Whiteman ‘in the clean-up place.
