Exactly Right in Catohing ThatFoul Flyin the Tenth Inning, Series With the Philli By Bozeman Bulger. Philadelphia, Aug. % ILE question of when a bone is not a bone has upsct the Giants’ camp, and | I Incldentally on that important question hange the story of the second defeat at the hands of the Phillies. It might be worse if the Kame Phillies Were @ aource of real worry, but to the Champs they are just lke guitiiies, irritat- ing, but not dangerous. The bone question, however, has Its storm centre around George Burns, the young man who is very Ikely to be known next year as the Breatest outtielder in the Natlonal League. In the tenth inning with the bares full and one out Sherwood Magee lifted a foul Ny inte left, George, after a run, causht the ball and shot it to the plate for a double play that would have saved tho day, but there was no salvage. Being’ on the run hie Une throw went high over Wilson's head and Byrhe raved home from third, Now the question arises, should Burns have caught the ball or let It fall to the ground where it would have counted for nothing? It has always been a theory that when a flelder catches @ foul fy with a runner on third he pulls bone, and Immediately after Geot cateh up went that cry. But George was not guilty, He attempted @ play that would have been referred to ai piece of quick thinking had it gone through. He was clone enough to make a perfect throw and the fact that the ball went over Wilsoh's head was sufficient evidence of the strength of his arm. Burns figured that the chance of putting two men out on his play was much greater than of getting rid of tWo fuch batters us Magee and Cravath, which would have been neceasary if he had let the foul fly hit the ground, After the arguments had somewhat subsided McGraw told him he made the play exactly right, that no ball player can be great unices he Js willing to take w chance. ‘The lous of th ame should hot hang on Burns's much di ever.
