After McMullin had flied out'to Robertson, Eddie Collins worked Sallee for a pass, Jackson made a stronz effort to send His field captain around, but the best he could do was to raise a fly to Rob- ertson. Felsch was mo fortunate, however, his double to left fleld fence sending Collins home with tlle Sox's first run. Giants Score Two Mom The Giants increased their lead by scoring another two runs in the fourth and appeared to feel that they had the game won. Rariden singled to right and Sallee sacrificed him to second. On Burns’ single to right and J. Col- lins" error in fumbling the bell, Rari- den scored and Burns took second.
