RED SOX TIGHTEN
GRIP ON PENNANT
Beat Tigers in Exciting Contest
and Now Have Four-
Game Lead
Special to The Telegraph
Boston, Mass., Sept. 21.—Turning
the Detroit Tigers back for the third
time yesterday, three runs to two,
the Boston Red Sox went Into a lead
of more than four games In the
j American League race. Detroit's pen-
I nant prospects were thus dimmed be-
I fore a crowd which brought the total
paid attendance for the four game
I series to 107,423, believed to be a rec
ord for any but world title contests.
Detroit's was an aggressive game
yesterday. The Tigers got men on
bases, either on passes or hits, and
forced them along by might of bat or
bursts of speed, but except in the first
inning, found Boston's fielders bar
riers to progress beyond third base.
In the opening inning, Ruth passed
the first man and hit the next, and
with Cobb's sacrifice and Veach's
single, the Tigers scored their only
runs. They filled the bases in the
eighth, Ruth developing another wild
spell which forced his retirement, but
Foster struck out Baker and the side
was out.
Harry and Speaker Stars
At other times during the game, it
was Cooper's bulletlike throws, Barry's
handling of hard-driven grounders, or
catches by Speaker that stopped De
troit runners.
After gaining a run in the first in
ning, Boston went scoreless against
Dauss' pitching until the sixth. Then
a pass to Speaker led to a run when
Lewis' drive bounded off Burns' shin
into right field for a triple. When
Lewis came in to the plate on Gard
ner's infield punch he was called safe,
although Catcher Stanage maintained
that he had effectually blocked him
from the plate.

IDLE PHILS JUMP
TO 5 GAME LEAD
Rain Halts Festivities at St.
Louis, but Rest Was
Needed
Special to The Telegraph
St. Louis, Sept. 21. The fickle
weather man didn't entirely hinder
Pat Moran's pennant prospects yes
terday afternoon. He did keep the
Phils from tackling the Cardinals, but
there was glorious news from Cincin
nati and Pittsburgh.
The Reds pinned the shoulders of
the Braves to the mat and the Pirates
nosed out Brooklyn.
As a result, the idle Phils gained a
half game on their opponents. They
| are now five large, juicy box scores
ahead of both Boston and Brooklyn,
which is a tremendous lead at this
stage of the game.
Small Chance of Losing
There is still a mathematical chance
of one of the two rivals overhauling
the potentates of the National League
percentage table, but It Is mathemati
cal and not baseball. Only a calamity
can keep the Phils from winning the
first championship' in the lortg career
of the Broad and Huntingdon cor
poration.
Schuyler Britton elected to play a
double-header to-day, instead of ex
tending the visit of the leaders to Wed
nesday, which is an open date.

Special to The Telegraph
Chicago, 111.. Sept. 21.—Unless there

the last lap of the pennant race, the
world's series games are scheduled to
begin on Friday. October 8, and there
will be no slice of the melon set aside

i i President Johnson refused

was apparent from his talk that he ex

each other. With these two tn the field
for the Hag there is a possibility that
the series ln Philadelphia will be played
on bhibe Field, the American League
grounds, while ln Boston the games
would be transferred to the Braves' new
grounds. Shlbe Park will accommodate
about 5000 more than the Phillies' park,
while in Boston it might be possible to
