Ruth's 55th Homer Shatters Own World's Record?Giants Land Eighth Straight Victory
Yanks Capture
Two in Row
And Hold Lead
2=8,000 Fans Swarm Polo
Grounds as Browns Meet
Double Defeat, 10-6,13-5
By Charles A. Taylor
Twenty-eight thousand fans . went
into hysterics yesterday afternoon at
Hie Polo Grounds, while Babe Ruth,
the Swattingest Swatter of Swatdom,
?lanced around the bases with his rec?
ord breaking home run labeled "Fifty
five"
It was in the first game of a double
bill with the St. I.oUis Browns when
the mighty smash came, and even the
fact that the Yanks by scoring a. twin
victory managed to cling to the lead
in tho pennant race faded into insig?
nificance beside the personal triumph
of George Herman Ruth. The ball
Babe hit traveled into the upper tier
of the right field stand. The .scores of
the two games were 10 to 6 and 13 to
5, the Yanks shaking off their batting
lethargy to the extent of fourteen safe?
ties in each gamo.
The wonderful Babe was not the only
home run driver. Bob Meusel delivered
another most timely circuit crash in
the.opening encounter, as did Elmer
Miller, and Wally Pip joined the pro?
cession with a drjve into the right
field bleachers in the second conflict.
For the Browns Kenneth Williams col?
lected his twenty-second homer in the
initial chapter and his twenty-third in
the closing battle.
Baj'ne Gets Pommeling
The first game saw tinder-handed
Carl Mays and Lefty Bayne start out
as the opposing pitchors. Mays was
not at his best, but he lasted until
the end. Bayne was an easy mark and
was withdrawn from the turmoil in
the seventh. It was?off one of Bayne's
left-handed shoots that G. Herman
Rath made baseball history.
It looked rather dubious for the
aspiring Yanks in the third inning of
* he opener, when the Browns clouted
"?lays for four hits, which with a base
on balls netted the invaders four runs.
But the Hugmen came back with a
vengeance in their half of the stanza
and wiped out the "big four" with four
of their own. Schang, Mays and Millrr
singled in a row, but Peekinpaugh w.ts
called out on strikes and Ruth popped
to Gerber. Then came Meusel's terrific
smash, which cleared the left field fence
and tied up the game. ' A veritable
shower cf straw lids fell upon Henry
Fabian's greensward as a salute to
Lanky Bob.
The Browns took a one-run lead
in the fourth through nn infield singlo
by Jacobson and a double by Me
Manus, but the Yanks got busy with
their bats apain in the fifth and wiped
out the visitors' advantage, a double
by Miller and the record-smashing
homer of Babe the Ruthless doing.the
job. Tho Frowns again tied the count
in the sixth, when Williams hit his
first homer of the afternoon.
The Yanks settled everything in the
reventh, when another bunch of four
runs was plucked. Miller hit his
homer, his fourth safety of the game,
and Peck and Ruth walked. Meusel
beat a bunt, and when Bayne threw
wildly, both Peck and Ruth scored.
Pipp singled, tallying Meusel. Kolp
replaced Bayne as the St. Louis pitcher
and checked the Y?inks, but the game
v>as "in."
Piercy Fails to Last
Bill Piercy and Van Gilder were in?
troduced as the moundsmen for the
second controversy, but neither proved
up to the mark and Manager Hug called
upon Hoyt and Rogers in turn to share
the pitching burden. "Van Gilder was
succeeded by Palmero, Burwell and
Henry.
Two innings, the first and the third,
were all sufficient to insure a second
ankee victory. In the first Miller
walked and tallied on Ruth's pro
? igious triple, which bounded against
the center field fence. Meusel and
'i'ipp followed with singles and Wand
doubled for a total of four markers.
Ruth opened the third by walking
and went to second on Meusel's single
ro left. Pipp doubled to the left field
fence, scoring Ruth and putting Meusel
n third. Ward'.?, sacrifice fly to left
: .Hied Meusel and sent Pipp to third.
McNally singled through Ellerbe and
Pipp, crossed thf plate. Schang tripled
to left, scoring McNally. Palmero now
r ?placed Van Gilder. Piercy walked
ad Miller doubled to left, Schang
viilying.
Peck lined to Williams, and Ruth, up
or the second time, strolled, filling the
ses, Burv.ell here succeeded Pal
lero as the Brown flinger, and Meusel
? reed Ruth for the third out.
The biggest inning for the Mound
r'ty nine .was the thiroy when an error
by Piercy and singles by Sisler and
Villiams resulted in two runs. The
Lirowns picked up other stray fnns to
the number of three, but the Yanks
.'ere so far out in front that noboify
paid any attention to them.
Babe Ruth hurt his knee in the sev- :
??.?nth inning while running from second
to third, and was replaced by Fewster.
but tho injury is not regarded as, seri?
ous.

The Narrow Squeak
Last night I -dreamed that J teas pitching
Against the Yankee team.
And two were on and two were out
In this soul-gripping dream.
And ivhen I looked around again
I almost hit the mat".
For a fellow named George Herman Ruth
Was strolling up to bat.
And then I thought?"I'll walk this boob
And so clamp on the lid."
And then I looked around and saw
What I had went and did.
For- all I had to handle now
Was Meusel in his prime.
lhit just before I choked to death
I woke up just in time.
Hornsby and Heilman
Hornsby, the Cardinal premier, has outclassed his league so far at
ha* that no one else is in sight. He has opened one of the greatest gaps in
nil batting history, a record-breaking lead.
Heilman, of Detroit, who has kept even pace "with Hornsby, has come
upon rougher competition. He has had Cobb on his heels for over six
weeks, with Ruth and Sisler close enough to take quick advantage of any
plump;
Hornsby can drop ten stories and meet no one coming up. Heilman
can afford no such luxurious descent. He was passed by Cobb in the last
fortnight and needed five hits in a single game to regain part of his old
margin.
Run Makers
As a runmaker there wil) be only one name on the chart. Ruth is
after another record here.
Hornsby and Heilman have made approximately thirty more hits
than fruth has made. Yet the "Babe" is forty runs beyond either, more
than -Qorty runs ahead of Heilman.
To? crack "Ty" Cobb's long standing record two successive years is
one of the top achievements in the slugger's career.
Things That Happen
On in two and down in three,
Seldom happens unto me.
But on in four and down in eight,
That, sir, is my normal fate.
A drive, a brassie. an approach,
'A lie that's dead against the cup,
, . ' These are shots I always get?
? . ' Jiist before they wake me up,
W. H. P.
Ail-Time Stuff
"What's the matter with this line-up for an All-Time All-Star team?" ?
writes a fan. "Here goers?Cobb, right field; Speaker, center field; Ruth,'
left field; Sisler, first base; Collins, second base; Bancroft, shortstop;'
Hornsby, third base; Schalk, catcher. Can you beat it?" ,
Only in one or two spots. Hans Wagner could never be dropped from
any All-Star cluster. In the main the present era has offered greater
talent than anything the past has known?for Cobb, Speaker, Ruth,
-Sisler, Collins and Hornsby have never been topped by any individual stars.
"Why is it," asks a reader, "that after a champion reaches the top he
seems.to go down lull soon after?" Few can remain in any one given
location'of form. And after one has reached the top there is only one
direction left forythe next step. And this direction isn't up hill.

McGraw men Add to Lead
By Again Defeating the Reds
Marquard Batted Out by!
Old Teammates; Barnes j
Effective at Critical Stages |
By R. J. Kelly
CINCINNATI, Sept. 15.-Rube Mar- ;
qtiard, veteran of many a big league
campaign, felt the fury of the pennant- j
mad Giants in the third and final game j
of tho series with the Reds this after- :
noon, and the New Yorkers gained '
their eighth consecutive triumph by a !
score of 9 to 6.
The victory, combined with the de- ;
feat of the Pirates at the hands of the j
.battling Braves, increased the lead of
the Giants in the flag race to two and
a half games, and they left for Pitts- !
burgh tonight fully confident of I
clinching the pennant in their all-im- i
portant three-game series with George I
Gibson's players, which opens to-mor- i
row.
Marquard was plastered rather,free- j
ly from the start, but in the fifth inn- I
ing the Giants cut loose with a bom- I
bardment that netted them six runs j
and clinched the game. Fred Coumbe, ;
Bob Geary and "Hod" Eller also I
pitched for the home club during the j
course of the afternoon.
Jess Barnes, who performed for the j
Giants, was also bumped with consider- j
able frequency, but he kept the hit3 I
fairly well scattered except in the sixth |
and seventh innings, in each of which j
the home players bunched three blows, i
While Barnes was breezing along at an j
easy pace his mates slammed the ball I
to all corners of the inclosure for a |
total of sixteen hits. Bancroft, Frisch
and Kelly each connected for three |
safeties.
Reds First to Score
Barnes's failure to pass the hard- !
"hitting Wingo with two men on the '
bases an:l two out in the second in?
ning helped the Reds to get off to a
one-run lead. After Bressler had rolled
to Bancroft Daubert singled to center
and Fonseca flied to Meusel. Duncan
was hit on the left arm by a pitched
ball and Wii.go drove a single to right,
i scoring Daubert. Wingo took second
' on Young's vain throw to head off
Bressler at third. Marquard ended the
inning by rolling to Kelly.
The New Yorkers came right back
in the third and went their opponents
one run better. With one out, Ban?
croft got two bases when Fon?eca
dropped his short fly to left field after
a hard run. Frisch, drove a long fly to
right, and when Bressler muffed the
ball Bancroft tallied and Frisch
sprinted to second. The Fordham
Flush took third on Young's grounder
to Bohne and completed the circuit on
Kelly's single over second. Meusel
flied to Fonseca.
Barnes was jolted for two safeties
in the home half of the third, and the
Reds tied the score. Bohne singled to
j loft. Kopf slammed one off Barnes's
glove, but Bancroft recovered the ball
in time to nail the runner at first.
Bohne took second on the play and
; came home on Groh's two-bagger along
; the right field foul line. The next two
batters went out on infield grounders.
Bancroft got a three-bagger to start
the eventful fifth when his hit to left
took a bad bound and went past Fon- ?
seca. Dave rode home on Frisch's
single to the same field. Young beat
out a bunt to Marquard, putting Frisch i
on second. Frisch was caught off the
keystone, but after being run up and
down the base line he finally reached
third and Young got to second with
tho help of an error by Daubert. Kelly
scored them both with t. single to left.
Keep Up Bombardment
Meusel poked anothar single to cen?
ter and Rawlings moved the two run?
ners along with a bunt to Groh. Snyder
scored Kelly and Meusel with a tingle
to left. Barnes sacrificed and Bums
singled to center, scoring Snyder. Ban?
croft singled to center, and Frisch
finally ended the bombardment by pop?
ping to Bohne.
The Giants added another run, with
Coombs on the mound, in the sixth.
This was scored on Kelly's triple to
right and a wild pitch.
Barnes then eased up, and the Reds
scored two runs in the sixth on singles,
by Daubert, Fonseca and Duncan and
an error by Bancroft. With Wingo on
third, Barnes fanned Bohne.
The home players connected for a
few more hits in the seventh and scored
two more runs.
George Burns was called out on i
strikes on his first two trips to the
.plate.
Frisch was robbed of a two-bagger
by the official scorer, who charged
Bressler with an error in the third
inning when the Reds' rightfielder
dropped Fordham Frank's terrific driv*
after a long sprint.
Players Near to Blows
Sam Bohne, the Reds' second base?
man, and Heinie Groh almost came to
blows in the fifth inning, when the lat?
ter, after fielding Rawlings's bunt,
threw the ball like a rifle shot to the
fermer, who was covering first base.
The fans applauded Bohne vigorously
when the Reds returned to their bench,
but Groh was given quite a razzing.
"Southpaw" Artie Nehf and the vet?
eran "Babe" Adams will probably be
the opposing pitchers to-morrow in the
first game of the series that is likely to
ctccide the National League pennant
for this season. The Pirates will have
to make a clean sweep of the series in
order to regain the league lead.

Pitching Duel ; Score, 2-1 j
ST. LOUIS, Sept. 15.?-The Cardinals
nosed out a victory over Brooklyn to?
day by 2 to 1 in their last game of the
season. The victory gave two of three j
of the series to the local team, and ?
gavo them fourteen of twenty-two j
games they have played with the Dodg- j
era this year,
Burleigh Grimes pitched great bal??
for tho visitors, but Jess Haines ?
pitched still better for the Cardinals, j
Grimes allowed six hits, and both runs j
were earned off him. Haines allowed* j
the Dodgers four hits, and if Johnny j
Lavan had not made a throw into the j
Brooklyn dugout Uncle Robbie's men I
would have been blanked.
Four of the six hits off Grimes came <
in the third inning, but only two of i
them figured in the scoring. Lavan j
opened with a singlo to Chuck Ward. ]
demons flied to Myers and Haines I
fanned. Jack Smith spilled the beans j
for Grimes with a home run into the ?
right field stand, scoring Lavan ahead
of him and accounting for all of the i
St. Louis runs. Founder and Stock I
followed Smith with outfield singles, !
but were left when Hornsby fouled
Miller. ,
In tho seventh the Dodgers made
two hits and put over their run. John?
ston singled to Lavan and took second
on the infielder's wild throw to first.
Johnston halted at third on Griffith's
single to left, and scored on Wheat's
sacrifice fly to McHenry.
