Speaking of Sports Tip your hats to Mister Ruth, He's the king of kings, 8o far as baseball 18 concerned, His two homers yester- day were wonders, the first one being the longest hit cver made at the Polo Grounds, Here's what the Bambino did at bat In the second game: Pirst inning—One out, ene on base, Ball 1, Ball 2, #trike (called), Ball 8. Ball 4, walked Fourth inning—None out, nene on base, Ball 1, Btrike 1, (swung), Ball 2, Hit a home run over the right field stands, Fifth inning—One out, none on base, Strike 1 (foul). Ball 1, Strike 2 (foul), Ball 2, Foul. Hit a home run into lower right field stand, Seventh inning—Two out, none on base, Ball 1, Strike 1 (swung), Ball 2. Ball 3, Ball 4, walked, Caught uapping off first base by Enyder and was run down, Snyder to Kelly to Frisch to Kelly, ~ Ninth Inning-~Two out, one on base, Ball 1, Strike 1 (called), Sent long fly to Etengels in left cln!erfwt Babe Ruth made his two home runs {n a single World series game on | Oct, 11, 1023, and just alx years ago on the same date, Benny sKauff of the Giants did the same thing in a World series game against the White Sox. By hitting two homers yester- day, Ruth tled Larry Gardner and Home Run Baker in total home runs for Warld serics. The trio have three each. Baker is through and Gardner {8 practically done, so Ruth has a good chance ‘of taking the lead In home runs. Joe Dugan proved to the serfes’ fan ! the reason he is regarded as one of | the . greatest third sackers in the game. The former Holy Cross star made two lightning plays on slow-hit balls along the third base line, well worthy of the ‘applause which fol- lowed. 3 | Bob Hart, former polo player, had the toughest decislon of the day to make. 1t came when Young slid into Ward at second ‘base, being forced out, but upset” Ward and prevented him from compléting what should have been an easy double play. Bob | called the play correctly, refusing to | allow the Yankees two killings and the American Jeaguers kicked long and hard, for this was the frane in which the Giants threatened to break up the game. A double play followed and trouble was averted. Miller Hfigging, full of fight, con- stantly urging his team on, appeared on the third base coaching lines. Mil- ler nagged the umpjtes and cajoled his “henchmen, racing up and down the coaching box jin a style “'I".\‘h made Hugh Jennings turn.green with envy. After Young slid into Ward in the sixth he was greetel with a combined roar of hoots and cheers when he came up to bat in the eighth. Ross re- sponded to the boos with a slashing single to center. After Behtley came into the fray Wally Schang and Herb Pennock turned and batted right-handed. Neither was sucpessful. The Giants whte training their guns on the right \,}d stand, hoping for Tomers. Irisch fouled one that was just a few fent wide of being a homer. \ Dugan, forpthe second day, walked on his first aybearance at the place. And Kelly, like yesterday, singled on Frisch's allfaround play will stand out in this seri The former IPord-} ham boy is flashy and effective, Groh took 'a hit away from Pipp in the gkcond, after playing Wally's roller poorly by making a fine recov- ery and throw. Ward hagd two strikes and one ball when he hit his homer. McQuillan fried to sneak over the third one laid ‘it in the groove nnd Aaron pasted it into the upper left field stands. » | " | Rob Meusel was called out on three | pitched balls in third, not even | | Bridgeport. | sporting town. taking his bat off his shoulder as the | sphere flew past. | Bentley hit Pennock in the back | with terrible speed ball that stretched | the Yankee, ster ont on lln‘i ground, wherc he rolled in agony. Huggins rushed at Bentley and told s e For the convenience of our patrons we now have two telephones. Call 2842-2 or 2842-3.

He did not get an- other, \ Again the odds have changed and today the Yanks are 6-5 favorites, MeoGraw gave the Yanks full dit after yesterday's game, He sald, “They had the hitters, but we'll have them on the run'" Bheer strength and power is what gave the Amerleans thelr vietory, not baseball strategy, Inside haseball played no part in yesterday's game, Whatever headworlt was used was by Pennock, e changed his pace most effectively, fooling the Giant hitters when hits meant runs, Meher s released outright by No other eastern league team wants him, Ned Again Merkie Jacobson went hit less, * Bernsteln and Rocky Kansas mix it up this evening.
