The officlal attendance was 19,343, Total receipts, $1,006. Natlonal commission's #hare, $,106.60, Players' share, $21,576.64; each club's share, $9,101.88, Every effort was made to get the play- ing field In condition, but it was wet and soggy throughout, and had much to do with robbing the game of any possible brilllance. There Is much speculation tohight as to the batterigs for tomorruw's game, It semos taken for granted that Moranis choice for the Phillies will be either Chal- mers or Mayer, while Carrigan will send either Foster or Leonard in for the Red Box. A sliver loving cup was presented to Manager Moran by the home folks just before the players tok the fleld. Weak on Defensive. ‘The lack of keen playlng judgment and the unbalanced defensive strengih of the Red Sox was the direct cause of the American league champlony' defeat to- Ll while the abliity of the Phillles to take advantage of the sligtest opening gave them the runs which brought vie- tory, Offensively, the Boston combina- tion proved that it had an edge on the Moran brigade, even with Alexander in the box. Young Shore tonight was given almost as much eredit by the followers of the game as the .winning star of the Phillles. Although unsteady at times, his wmental attitude was not helped by the manner played, both on feld, and In the end this erratio attack and defense finally broke the Red Sox twirler, At the beginning of the game Shore had w clearly perceptible advantage over Alex- ander for the American league boxman was cool and confident and had a mas- terly contxol over the sphere, while his opponent was nervous and fal'ed to de- | celve the batsmen with his slants uld| curves, As the contest progressed and | the Fhillles escaped from one .predica- ment after another Alexander ' steadily improved, while Shore began to show slgns of the strain until the breaking climax came in the elghth. Shore Not All teo Blame, The lose of the game cannot be placed Hoston's playing.

In the fourth in- himself to blame when he opened the way for the first of the Phillls’ runs by stead of throwing Paskert out at second. He had ample time to cut off the latter at the midway, where Barry was all set for the ball. The most glaring error of judgment, Jhowever, was that in the eighth session, when Scott falled to cover second on Barry's great one-handed stop of Ban- groft's drive. Barry ssemed nonplussed 4 n he whirled to get Stock coming down from first, only to find his short- #top fifteen feot from the bag, evidently believing that the hit was a sure single, |This fallure of the intield to work to- | §ether uset the whole team and Scott in for a strike. | pariloular. for he was quick to realize d do was his lost opportunity, Don’t Wit in Plaches. Andther notable feature of the play was the falure of both teams to hit the {ball hard and safe when men were on {the bases. Time after time the batters of both clubs put up weak efforts when & clean smash would have brought the of the Red Sox, with their nine men left on bases on an equal number of innings. That this was not entirely due to the puzsling delivery of Alexander why dem- onstrated by the solid hitting of the Bos- PAT MIORAN AND WIS BOYS.

His record for the day Was two passes to first and two flies to feft fleld in four times at bat. Cravath, the home-run king, was equally inef- fectual with the bludgeon. In four trips to the plate he had one pass, a sacrifice out, a deep fly to center and an easy chance for Scott. Lewls, with two hits in four times at bat, carried off the hit- ting hono! both of his singles being clean drives to the outtield. In his indi- vidual duel with Alexander, however, tie result was a tie for the latter fanned TLewis twice, the second time with Hoblit- zel on second and but one out. The game appeared to drag at times, but there was not the slightest inten- tional delay on the part of the players, who never questioned a single decision of the umpires or manifesting displeasure with the verdicts of the arbiters when they fell‘onto them. But two bases were stolen during the game, due in part to the excellent throwing of Cady and Burns and the fact that the patchs were soft and slow from the heavy rain of Thursday afternoon and night. The Usuaj Prelimin N There was usual preliminaries that always precede the opening gmume of a world's series and It was 2:086 o'clock when Umpire Bill Klem called “‘play bail.

Then hé laced the second ball that the Phlilies’ idol sent up to center fleld for a single, much to the joy of tho Hoston rooters. It was a lower hard drive. Scott sent Hooper down to seconi on o pretty sacrifice, Alexander Luderus. Alexander appeared a bit nervous as Speaker stepped Into the batter's box, but he quickly put two strikes over, cut- ting the outside edge of the plate, Then Alexander In trying to get Speaker for OMAHA, to| SATU RDAY, ng jugxling th OCTOBER 9, 1915, AT S IR ————————————————————————————————. | high bail at by Bostons Frantic for Ran. e throw after momentarily Niehoff was throwa out, Bhore” to Hoblitzel.
