In the series was decided on the best five out of nine, the, Americans, under Jimmy Col- defeated Pittsburgh by taking games in a row. Boston st contest, but then the Pirates three in succession and the bat- was regarded over. Under the seven nearest any team get to victory after by one three came in the competition, in which the G things up with the Red Sox, but were beaten through Snodgrass' famed muff and Merkle's failure to get a foul ball. So it looks as if the Cubs were confronted with Herculean task. Their rather disappointing bat- ting averages do not, give their sup- porters very much hope. It would he both interesting and profitable for some psycholgist to find the reason for the potency and chartn of the fourth inning in world’s series games. When Ruth hit his two run triple yesterday he chose the fourth in which to m it, thus recording a fourth inning decision in three £ the four tilts of the current series Last year five of the six tween the White Sox and the Gfants were settled in the fourth round. JIn that series it will be remembered that such high lights as Felsch’s home run won the first game, the five rung that beat the Giants in the second, the two counters that won for them ainst Cicotte in the third, Kauff's mer in the fourth and Zimmer- heroic ch after Collins and Robertson's muff in the sixth tussle all came in the fourth inning. idently there is something in tia makeup of a ball player that prompts him to do great things or crack unden the strain in the fourth session. Tt cannot be a mere coincidence that so many world’s series struggles decided in that inning. Ruth made yesterday's medium for considerable distinction for himself. In the first place, Wig hit was the first he made in a world’s series. Neither against the Brooklyna in 1916 nor against the Cubs until vesterday’s fourth had he been able to land a safety In the pitching guished himself by world’s series record for scoreless in- nings. His mark twenty-nine in- nings—thirteen in the fourteen inning game against the Superbas in 1916, in the opening battle with the Chicago and seven yesterday. previous mark was twenty~ eight innings, and was credited to Matty. Bix Six pitched twenty-seven scoreless innings against the Athletics in 1905, and hurled another scoreless inning against that club in 1911. These are little details of interest which it might profit the National Commission record in the official data. The Red Sox played another errér« less game yesterday, giving them a fielding record unapproached. ' in world’s series history. In four games the Boston club has beep charged with only one error, and that was no palpable misplay and might have been converted into a hit for . the batsman. In the second game White- man misjudged a fly in the sum®at Comiskey park. That was the lona error. The Cubs, too, have been put- ting up a remarkable fielding game.
