New York, Oct. §—The -Beston, Americans overcame the New Yori Nationals by a score of 4 to 3 today in. the presence of more than 35,000 persons in the first game of the world = series. The contest was nip and tuck all the way, The Gi4nts made a thrill- ing rally in the ninth inning,when they nearly tied the score, but “Smokey Joe” Wood's bewildering speed turned two Giant batters back to the bencn on strikes for the last two putouts, and the Red Sox carried off the hon- ors. When . victory perched on the ban- ners of the Red Sox host the Boston delegation marched across the field and Mayor Fitzgerald of Boston, who was a guest of Mayor Gaynor, led in the cheers for the players of - both teams. Governor Hugene Foss of Magsachusetts and Governor Tener of Peansylvania saw the contest. Rarely, if ever, has any world serics provided such a dramatic finish. Two runs behind, ‘the' CHants’ supporters had given .up hope. Hundreds were leaving the stands when Merkle sent a single whistling to the outfleld after one man was out. Even then the chance of tleing tte score seemed re- mote,, but a Texas leaguer by Herzog followed quickly by a smoking hit by the Indian Meyers, which sent Merkle home, put the stands in a flame of ex- citement. z With Giants on second and third, thousands stood in their seats and yelled. Fletcher swung his bat nerv- ously at the plate while Joe Wood, white of face, seemed anxious. The Red Sox twirier patted the -grass, hitched his belt, rubbed the ball and adjusted his cap. This delay unsettled Fletcher and he swung futilely a* Wood's fast breaking shoots threz times and went back to the bench. Crandall, strong man in the pinch, came up. Wood put over two strikes and rhen three balls. The Red Sox twirler drew back his arm and shot over a high fast Inshoot. Crandall swung, missed it and the game was over. It was a battie of managerial wits in the selection of the pitchers. Man. ager McGraw pinned his faith in Tes- reau and the “Ozark bear hunter” heid the Red Sox hitless until the sixth in- ning, when Speaker's three bagger broke the ice. Tesreau weakened in the seventh inning, and before the fu- silade of Boston hits was over three runs were across the plate and the Red Sox had a lead of two runs. Manager Stahl placed his star pitch. er, Joe Wood, oh the moynd. In only two innings was the Red Sox mounds- man_hit hard, and his dazzling speed continued undiminished until the last man had struck out. Wood fanned 11 P ters, He gave only two bases on ls. The Glants were the first to edge the way Into the run column. Wood held them scoreless until the third in- ning, when after Tesreau had fanned, Devore werked ihe Red Sox boxman for a base on balls. Doyle put up a | stand turned loose a lusty cheer. Wood! by sending a line drive to center. Cady followed with another liner to center and the Boston delegations in the forced Cady at second, but Hooper shot a double past Merkle, putting ‘Wagner across the plate and sending ‘Wood to third. Yerkes responded with a sharp drive over second and before the ball coald be returned to the in- field Hooper and Wood had scampered over the rubber. With a lead of two runs, the Giarts had to take the offen- sive, and nobly they rewponded with their ninth inning rally which failed by a run of tieing the sccre. “We won, as I thought ve weuld, but the Giants gave us a great fight,” re- marked Mansger Stahl, 25 he led the players aboard an esrly evening train for Boston. “Joes Wood carried us to victory with flne pitching, and our players were ready with their bats when hits meant runs.” “The series is just beginming,” said Manager McGraw, “and while we would have liked to have won we are by no means disheartened by today's defeat. The' Athletics were defeated the first game of the world's series last year, but they captured the title of champions.” The crowd at the Polo grounds was handled without confusion and there virtually was room for all who came. Speculators obtained high prices/ for seats in the u stand, but many lost money when would-be purchasers failed to meet exorbitant demands for the coveted. pasteboards. The attend- ance figures fell short of the first game between the Athletics and Giants last year. | For New York, Larry Doyle shone with his usual brilliancy. He had two hits In four trips to the plate, one of them being for two bases. He was all over the field and nothing got past him, Herzog also was very much in the game, getting two hits and helping New York to make the third run, But one attempt was made to steal a base and that came {n the-second inning when, after having reached first base on @& force, Stahl started down and was flagged by Meyers with a perfect throw to Doyle. Despite the nervousness of the two teams, there were but two misplays. These wege committed by Wagner and Fletcher, ‘the two shortstops falling down on easy grounders, no doubt due to their anxiety to get the ball across to first. Seventeen men struck out during the game. For New York, Fletcher fell a victim three times to Wood's “smoke balls,” Tesreau fanned twice, and De- vore, Snodgrass, Merkle, Herzog, Me ers and Crandall each struck out once. Jake Btahl went out twice on strikes; as also did Gardner. Hoeoper and Speaker struck out once. The umplring wes of the highest order. There was no disputing Klem’s work cn balls and strikes, and Evaps had ne trouble in decidine the plays on the bases. O'Loughlin and Rigler had nothing to do. high flv which fell too far back for either Gardner or Wagner to reach | 1he Score: Doyle got to-second on the hit, but ":"'h S "“"J":' Devora was held at third.
