ee THE EVENING WORLD, TUESDAY, JULY 18, 19 BASEBALL GETTING TOO SCIENTIFIC, EVEN FOR THE SCORERS Yanks-White Sox Game Proves Battle of Wits, With Visitors Winning RUTH HAS NOW MADE 15 HOMERS THIS YEAR Babe Ruth broke his string of home-runtess days yesterday with a four-base smash, and threatens to start on new drive after Ken Wil- Hams, Clarence Walker and Rogers Hornsby. No. 15 was the blow delivered yes- terday. It came in the seventh in- ning of the struggle with the White Box and Charley Robertson wns pitching, Walter Pipp was on first base at the time.

Times have changed. Get this Tt was the ninth inning in @ gamo with the Yanks and the White Sox The said White Sox were threo runs fn the lead, We-—I speak as repre- sentative of our noble Yenks—had but one Inning to go. Babe Ruth was given @ base on Walls, Immediately thereafter two men died the usual way. But behold! ‘Wan fitpped a single into centre and Everett Scott did ikewise ‘The basea were full with two out The Yanks needed threo runs to tie the score. ‘There was a great flurry aronnd the Yank bench, There was a hush in the stands. “Baker Roth had thirty-five home runs, Unless he gets started soon he won't make as many as that for the entire 198% season, He shifted into right fleld yesterday, as he fears that fleld at the Polo Grounds has his the art eyes and affected his work with bat. the principle of the thing.

There wos another flurry—much stalling. Messengers ran to and fro. Suddenly a signal indicated for Baker to fall back to the bench. “Hoffman batting for Baker!’" came through the megaphone, To calm the feelings of the con- fused and befuddled fans the game proceeded. Ferdie Schupp was a trifle loose and walked Hofman, forcing in Ruth. ‘The Yanks needed too more runs to tle.

There came a wild swinging of erms, 4 sort of eruption on the New York bench, “O'Doull batting for Miller,” shout- ed the tired megaphone man. O'Doull fe a left hander. Kid Gleason started thinking anew, though his bean was weary. ‘Blankenship now pitching,"’ the umpire announced, the megaphone man having completely bogged down at the knees, “Blooie!” ‘Without further ado Lefty O'Don} tore into Mr. Blanken- ship and whacked the pill past John- ston at short fora single. Two runs came home and the score was tied. 1 have tried to be accurate and show just how fast they changed. I may be mistaken, but I am right on for a real crack at second place. The Yanks are not a bit secure—even tn second place. No, indeed That fight at the Polo Grounds went on to the eleventh when Mays was pitching for the Yanks. Weil, never mind who was hurling the old onion for the Sox, It didn’t matter. Falk, the University boy, popped our Mr. Mays for a single, and a little later on Amos Strunk, batting for the pitcher, gent him home with a clean shot to centre. That's all there is to it All this seems mighty strange when used as a glimax to the real heroles of the gafme. In the seventh Babe Ruth put the affair on ice, it seemed, with a home run poke with Pipp aboard In the very next half, though, Bob Mostil and Collins ripped the old apple in to the stands and took back the lead That's the way the Yanks were beat, even though they made nineteen hits, In the hope of helping Ruth's bat- ting eye Manager Huggins took the Bambino out of the sun field yester- day and put Bob Meusel out there. It helped Babe's betting all reht But {t also hurt Bob Meusel's fielding. In the eighth inning he let a ball fall safe that he had lost in the sun, cost- ing two runs.

By Robert Boyd. ST. LOUIS, July 17. UST as the Giants’ pitching staff J appeared to breaking under the strain of the hot pennant race, and for a time it looked as if the world's champions would ousted from their lofty peak as the National League leaders, a rescue bobs up in the person of (Rig) Fred Toney from the Tennessee Mountains. Toney has not been going very well this season In fact, Fred was not considered one of the best-four of the world’s cham- pions’ hurlers . Manager McGraw was hard pressed for twirlers in the third game of the present series with the Cardinals and selected the burly Southerner, He had one of two to select from, Claude Jounard, the youngster from Indlan- apo}is, or Toney. He feared to trust the game with the league leadership at stake to the youthful Jounard, so he singled out Toney and sent him to warm up, ‘The chances for victory did not look very good, Rickey sent his spiths star to the mound, Bill Doak.

PITTSBURGH, Pa., July 18.—Wive consecutive games have been dropped by the Brooklyn Robins in Pittsburgh, consisting of all three played here May, the game of last Saturday a the 8 to 5 lickinw yesterday. EXvery pitcher on the Robin payroll has been at the mercy of the Pirate bats, Ma- maux, Decatur and Vance were ‘all smashed yesterday, and the Pirates won when they bunched three hits for three runs off Dazzy in the seventh Inning after Dazy had re- eved Decatur with the score ted in the sixth. The Pirates have not Brooklyn pitchers worse on this sec: ond swing through the West than have other clubs.
