Baseball Is Far From Tip-Top American League -' Players Barely Escape Shutout, Despite. Eight Hits. Quakers Bang Five Safeties, None of Them Clean. . ( By CHANDLER D. RICHTER Philadelphia's Official Scorer of World' Series Game. PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 8. The Phillies won the" first game of the World's, Series from the Red Sox after a thrilling but poorly played game. The final core was 3 to 1. J The Phillies did not gain their victory until the last half of the eighth inning, when slow thinking by Scott, Shore's wlldness and poor Adding enabled the Phillies to score the two winning runs. Boston had tied the score In the early urst half of the same inning when Lewis singled to left, scoring Speaker, who had previously walked. Alexander the Great would have regis-. terM a shut-out had it not been for a temporary fumble of Hoblitzel's g'rounder by Milton Stock. With Speaker on flrst and one man out. Stock juggled Hob litzel's grounder, but recovered In time to retire, Hoblitzel. Speaker, however, "reached second, whereas ho should easily have been forced at that bag had Stock handled the ball cleanly. Lewis' second single followed and scored Speaker,' Although he was deprived of the shut et through this mlscue, Alexander was really outpltchcd by young Ernlo. Shore the. giant right bander of the Red Sox. Alexander was not quite as fast as usual and his curve ball was not break Ing properly, but his nerve was -strong In the pinches, as the pine men. 'left on bases and eight hits with but one run proved conclusively. iTlve hts we're nl the hits the Phillies cpuld procure oft Chore and four bf them werevlnfleld f scratches, while the other' waa a Texas lagUeS'V ekgoit-v jVM FfnST INNING The game started promptly at 2:07..

Alex cut the plate for a strike on the first bal pitched to Scott. Tho Red Sox shortstop bunte'd tho next ball down the first-base line for a sacrifice hit, Alex ander tossing him out at first, and Hooper vent to second. Speaker let the first ball pass for a strike. The next was a beautiful curve, which Speaker allowed to pass", '.and the umpire called It a strike. The third went for a ball, and Speaker fouled the fourth. Alexander tried to work him again and served another ball. Speaker passed an other ball and the count was 3 to 2. fpeakep walked on the next pitch, which was. wild, HoUltzell hit the first ball to Bancroft, who;, caught Speaker at second.

And now all the glory that was Rome's and Tyre's and Nlnevah's is the Phillies' and' Pat Moran's, A near-riot broke loose when Hooper pop-filed out and all was over. The fans rolled onto the field like a section of the German army and then turned loose .very much unlike an army and did a'war dance. Boston's Royal Rooters, grim; and game, stuck right royally to their drums and cheered tho -victors like good sports men. Tho flrst rush of tho supposedly supe rior Sox machine had been hurled back by Alex and tho Phillies. The dope had taken another fall and Philadelphia again saw visions of a world's championship flag. The autopsy started before the fans had left the field. Experts who gravely asserted that the Red Sox would win, gptto work on alibis, and Pat Mofan, remembering that a managerial position requires dignity, controlled a desire to dancaand ran off the field with a grin. Why shouldn't ho grln7 Something like 21,000 settled Into nar row scats at Phllly Park and breathed a sigh of relief at 2 o'clock when the game was called. They had gone through exertions worse than those that ex plorers and soldiers boast about. When the park was, filled a wave of humanity hit the stubborn walls of the citadel with a dull sickening thud, figura tively speaking, and fell back beaten. It represented the fans who failed to et tickets. There were two incidents, sad and sor rowful, that stood out in the general riot of exuberance at the opening game. One was the .Blight of the 33-ycar rooters who failed' to get in, the other a wonderfully capacious looking expanse of roof Just over the Lehigh avenue bleachers, absor lutely untenanted.

While the game Itself was not so bril liantly played as somo of the games dur ing tho season, because of the slow diamond, the victory was none the less gratifying to the 20,000 loyal followers of Pat Moran. Until the game was more than half over It appeared that Alex ander would have a shutout, but a rally In the eighth gave Boston the tying run, and the Phillies came back In their half, putting two across and winning, 3 to 1. The weather conditions were Ideal. A warm breeze floated across the field and the sun shone brightly on the gaily dressed spectators. There, was not a mo ment during the game that applause was not heard either from the thousands- of Phlladelphlans or from the little group of Royal Rooters from Boston- The fans showed their appreciation of Alexander's work by almost smothering htm with congratulations when Harry Hooper filed to Luderus lit the ninth inning for. the last out, Alexander allowed one hit in each In ning until the ninth, but, with men on the bases, he was effective on every oo caslon but one. Six batsmen succumbed on strikes and only twice did Alex give a base on balls, f FIVE HITS FOR PHILS. On the other hand, Bhore. allowed the Phillies but five hits. However, he. fielded his position poorly, at least twq of the Phillies' hits being directly attributable to Shore's slowness.
