ROOKLYN and Philadelphia B battled through eighteen ims ’ nings of baselWall yesterday af- ternoon at Ebbets Field, and the visitors came out on the big end of a 10 to 9 score, The gontest was a sort of a “you tag me awd I'll tag you” affair The Phillies led off in the opening stanza by sending two runs across the home plate, The Dodgers came right back in their turn at bat and evened things up. In the fourth Brooklyn forged ahead when a double and single resulted in one run, but they did not hold the lead very long, as the Phillies tied the score in the sixth, When the visitors grabbed a two- tun lead in the seventh and increased )| this by two more in the eighth it looked as if, the old ball game was done for right there. A little thing By Richard Freyer. like a four-round hand did not bother the Dodgers, however, as, when they came to bat in the end of the eighth with the aid of four hits, one sacrifice hit and two free walks, they shot four runs over the plate and the score wus even again, ‘The game was a see-saw affair from then on, both teams scoring one run in the eleventh and one more in the sixteenth. The Quakers sent the win- ning run home in the eighteenth, when Williams led off with a singt to right, went to second on a flelder’s choice and scored on a two-bagger by Luderus. Jeff Pfeffer took care of the twirl- ing for the Dodgers, while George “Co- lumbia” Smith pitched nine innings for the Phillies, when he was taken out to allow a pinch hitter to bat for him. Watson finished the game. Brooklyn had sorts of good chances to win the contest In the fourteenth inning they had three on bases and only one out. Schmandt was at bat, and when he hit the bal in front of the plate the Phillles* catcher stepped on home and threw to first, doubling Schmandt. ‘The ball looked very much foul and Ray did not attempt to make first, but His Honor, Umpire Byron, called it a fair blow, and the beans were spilled.
