ERE it is Broadway breakfast time and one game almost done already. That, fellow citizens, is the Philadelphia method of getting revenge for the defeats suffered in the early spring and, the worst of It is, they are taking it out on the populace as well as the team. After i day is done no one can ay gay that the Yanks have not had a chance under all kinds of conditions, Baseball morning, noon and night ts tone portion, One af- started right after noon yester- nother ran well into the night on here they are at it again for breakfast. But that isn’t all. After bgp off to-night they are going to rest one day und hand us two more on Monday. The most ardent fan should hve enough to last him for some time, A more or less interesting feature to this deluge of baseball that has been turned on us is that our High- Janders haven't won one yet and are ainking deeper into the mire of the wecond division. Climbing the base- ball ladder over the shoulders of the Athletics was never regarded as a playful pursuit and the present effort at a rise is no exception to the rule, The World's Champions have sim- ply ripped us apert and thrown salt in the wound, To show their uncon- cern about anything the Yanks might do Capt. Iry Thomas, on a dare, left a young man named Wyckoff in the box in the first ga until he had walked five men in ession and forced in two rune after two were out, Having spotted us that many Capt. Iry then removed Mr, Wyckoff and the Highlanders knocked off ncoring for the rest of the day. As the Athletics made but three runs in the second encounter they could af- ford to give a handicap and left us flat with just as many runs we had before starting. By_beati Robby’a team while the Reds were trimming the Pirates, the Giants crawled to within one game of the lead, and are now in an easy position to get the inaide rail with a long string of games ut home. Biooklyn was never exactly like home to anybody, it seems, but it te much better than 8t. Lo in fur- nishing encouragement from the populace, The Athletics not only showed us how to play baseball but they also demonstrated that a bone can be pulled in select as well as damaged company.

Volplaning would be a pipe with those extended var flippers. Poor old Marquard! Looks as if he will never regain his health.

The score was eight to nothing and that indicates just about how they played. |Chance’s team never had a chance, Shawkey holding them safe at all stages. King Cole made his first start as an added attraction for Decoration Day but really proved to be an at- traction for the Athletics. Murphy, the first man up, knocked the King’s crown off with a home run smash into right centre. Collins and Baker added to the royal discomfiture with singles and “Stuffy” McInnis put an end to the dynasty with a two-base crack that shook the left Id fence, scoring Collins. That was fe end of the King and Warhop took hold only to be unseated with a three-run bat- ing rally in the sixth. Pieh went in for the Highlanders in the eighth, but proved to be just that for the Ath- letica.

Y., May 30.—Johnny McGraw and his Giants certainly did all kinds of things to the Dodgers in the morning game to-day. They made them look like a team from the lots as they walloped the ball to the tune of 11 to 1. Robbies men put up one of the worst exhibitions of ball that they have played this season. Demaree, who did the twirling éor the Giants, pitched a steady game, and although he was hit hard by the Dodgers hia teammates gave him fine support, making great catches and stops, Three timae dur- ing the game the Dodgers had “a chance to score runs with men on bases, but their pinch hitters were not equal to the task. McGraw used thirteen men during the game, put- ting in his extra four players when he had the game sewed up. Over eight thousand people were present. Bescher was the feature of the game in the pelhna line. He made four safe hits. Cornell Looks Like Winner of. .
