Suppose you've heard of It?
t Indeed. Quite, '
YesT Surely.
f Holy 8yvlihing, Swsttino, Soaking, Doubling, Tripling, Homi'r Battl
Child o1 my Heart (pardon, but I'm always a bit unsteady on this up.
Puliation), did you see BOTH pimes?
If Vpu difi, hereafter baseball has to hump Itself to keep you excited, Mauie
Adams. Or Julia Marlowe. Or Very Oorse I'atoit.
As Sothcrn said to me, and he didn't because Wilton Lackaye was the
only actor In the press box, and I wonder why, because Wilton Lackayo is
a. rood actor as Sothcrn never said to me, Jjut as 1 spotted a darned
decent and reasonably early June moon, which was on my left elbow,
travelling by the Sixth Avenue elevated after the cameF, I also saw that
the conductor had a ouljn. board. And was busy when 1 left him to slake
biy hunger at 104th Street, . K. 12 decrees oft th0 equator.
Over the tea some took It with
cream, others with lemon we dls
cussed the matter. Never was there
such harmony. Two Irishmen, four
Jews, a Bouthern colonol ojid an
opinionated baseball -writer.
Yet all agreed that when the
Yanks beat Washington twice In ono
day, Kilkenny was a myth, Pharaoh
was a decent guy, maybe Uttfiolfc
was right, and would Vie opinionated
baseball guy elucidate tho two spec
tacles. "Heaven help me!" I says. "I'll
try. Not making it too long, be
cause a aw.ll chance I got to get
into the papir at all if I stretch
this wonderfest. Bu,t I'll be
-. darned if it wasn't something to
look at. Alio regard. Alio a bit
of something to keep your pep
plugging.
"Baseball? Gentlemen, this day
you seen It! In all that makes the
game an excitement you are a highly
privileged crew. Save as the figures
show that at the afternoon game
there were 38,688 all told present. It
knocks down the Polo Grounds rec
ord of 38,611, made on a Sunday not
so long baick Me 1 may bo wrong,
frequently I am tout I surmise the
attendance to have been closer to
41,000. But that the Yanks are do
ing so well In New York society that
they'd hate to let tho landlord know
how big the parties are they are
holding Is no business of mine, ex
cept that anybody that tells me there
were less than 41,000 persons look
ing at the afternoon game at the
Polo Grounds yesterday can count
mo out. Thai VoUld leave 40,999.
And 10,000 turned back. If you don't
believe me, ask Inspector Cahalane.
He had the handling of all of us
from dawn for the morning game to
tho crowdsithat were ull lined up to
ee the afternoon game that the
morning spectators met coming out.
Lined for half a mllo from any sta
tioned box office.
But a good crowd. People who
Ilka baseball like Mt. The reason
why they are caught by it Is that
they admire tho swift action, tho
swift thinking of it, tho swift drama
that evory gome affords.
"And yisterday's two games hit
tho high spots of the sport. To go
into details would cover tho page.
But the stage setting Is that Wash
ington Is a tough team. Their team
batting average. If you picas-, is .312.
They had won six straight until they
hit Our Bunch. S. P. Mogridge went
VP ngalnst them in the breakfast
wrangle. ' And Shaw held the coffee
pot for Washington. With a very un
steady hand. In the third, Capt.
Peck and this Peck ha begun
puckln', I'm telling you stung it for
a single to left, and on Milan's Flut
tering handling got second. Then
what does Big Kid Meusel do but
slap It Into the sam; place, scoring
I'nck. That was all until the sixth.
Wushlngton got goldarned gay. Or,
1 guess, to be on tho level, I should
admit we were bum. Hhaw got hit
on thj shoulder. It was a slow ball
and Shaw took first easily. But
Judge singled to right, shooting the
lamed wing gent to econl. Mllun
hit to Pipp. who throw to Del Pratt.
Pratt had no more chance to force
Shaw at second than 1 have to be
come a millionaire by dropping a
rent in a chocolate machine (usually
you come away without tho confec
tionery), but ho chucked to Peck, the
while Pipp was perfectly well back
covering his bag. Peck let Pratt's
throw go through him, und I guess
you can .": Shaw scoring and Judge
moving to third, and the Milan geek
on second. Hlce Jumped a long fly
and the Judge Jounced th,c plate. It
got worse. Both rapped a double
clown the third base line and Milan
mozied across. Three they had. Hur
i is went out. Pratt to first. Ellerbe,
the Gov'nor's son, third to first.
'And that was In the Sixth Inning.
And We had Our S'xth Inning. It
was a beaut. Get this: Babe Ruth
fans! Del Pratt shocks one through
Shortstop Shannon for a real hit.
Ping shoots to short and forces Del.
Up comes Duffy Lewis. Now Duffy
has been the Blump guy where the
Babe has been the Demon with the
stick. But Duffy gave It a big, lion
flit rap. Heart In the smash. It
balled. It left the Cpltol leftfielder
gaping. It left the left bleacherltes
the same. It went clean over the
fence. As it did It took a sudden
harp turn. It landed foul. Clark
Griffith and his wholo team sur
rounded Umpire Chill to howl against
his decision that It was a fair ball.
No wonder, since It scored 1'lng and
Duffy and tied the score. But Chill
pointed out that the ball was fair
when it left the grounds and that
by tho law after It left the grounds
It was no blooming business of his
what became of It. And, of course,
Clark Griffith knew that was right
goods. He made a speech. But a
manager had to do that. Then Truck
Hannah took up the club. And the
first bnll Shaw slipped toward Truck
ho lammed Into left for a homer!
Yeh. Regular Babe Ituth stuff. And
Mogrldgo splits the leather for a
triple, nnd Peck promptly pucks one
over Bllcrbe's glovo at third, scoring
Mog, .and Kid Meusol mops the
ltbr tot triflfk Cwl, Vftk Uscm,
I'lpp put a long fly to left and the
Joy was over. But you'll say five
runs, six in all, topping three, wasn't
a bad effort.
Carlson then became the (linger
for Washington. It was the first
profenionar appearance of this
young Jamestown, N. Y., army
officer. He pitched stiff ball. He .
fanned Babe Ruth. This game
t"n came to the ninth. And
Washington showed its indubi
table class. Roth filed to Ruth
a long, pretty running catch.
Harrii died, ihort to first. Mog
gave Ellerbe a walk. Shannon
singled to left. Pichinleh as
tounded the 15,000 morning crowd
by shooting a homer into the left
bleachers. He tied the score.
Carlton rapped over Mog's glove
for a single. Pratt bungled
Judge's grounder. Shanks was
sent into second to run for Carl
son. Pratt retrieved lost form by
a fine stop of Milan's grounder.
But the score was tied! Tho grand,
stand wns rocking with yells for the
Yanks to go in and trim 'em. Schacht
was sent In to rcpl.-oe Carlson. Meusel
knocked a single off Schacht. Pipp
bunted to left and Gov'nor's Son El
lenoo threw it at first llko the bag was
on stilts. It Jumped far to right off
Judge's glove and that was THAT
GAMK.
The second game saw this greatest
attendance spoken of. And you will
have perhaps noticed that Bubo Ituth
was not among thoso prominently
noticed.
And tho king maintained this posi
tion up to a certain point in tho sec
ond game. I gloss the details which
brought the score through biting.

You in have noticed a strange
absence of Babe' Ruth in the re
ports so far. "Well, I'm pleased to
introduce the eighth inning of thin
second 0ame. Especially ro becaus;
if it hadn't turned out the tray it
did, darned if j don't think the
llabe tcould have walked into the.

hoicled for some plain poison for a
heart-broken bloke to gorge on. lln

had been walked. He had ical
loped what should have been a
two-bagger to right ejeept that a
gentleman had the back of hti
pants jammed against the back of
the fence awaiting the possibility.
Once before, also, 7te llabe had a
chance to knock two runs in and
Pichtnuh nailed his foul at the
press box grating. The ISatie threw
his bat away for sUty feet on that
occasion.
Well, here was this eighth. Collins
went down, Johnson to first. Pwlt
socked the Big Swede for a smash to
the left Held fence a triple. Kid
Mcu3fl did exactly the same, scoring
the Cap'n. Pipp knocked u sky-hifh
