The Browns squared the count in the “Little World's Series” yesterday by taking the second game from the Yankees and are within a half game of the league leaders. The Giants, overcoming pitching weaknesses by aggressiveness typical of McGraw's aggregation, battled their way to seven straight victories last week before the streak was broken by Cincinnati Saturday in the second game of a doubleheader. Despite de- feat again yesterday at the hands of Cincinnati, while Pittsburgh was idle, the New Yorkers hold a lead of five and a half games over the DPirates.

Sheehan's Boot Costly. Both teams did all their scoring in two innings, the Kaceys getting two runs in the first inning and the| other pair in the third inning. The first inning was productive of fiv runs for the Loeckmakers, four hits with a very costly error by Sheehan, chasing the five tallies across the dish. It was found necgssary to bring Shee. han onto the mound, it seemed, so that the game could be finished this year, the way the Corbin batters were landing on Mac's offerings. The | error of Sheehan at shortstop no| doubt got the bearings of the Ken-| sington lad “balled un.
