Philadelphia Athletics, champion of the world for the second successive year! In an exhibition of battlnsr seldom seen In a premier baseball aeries, the American Learue team defeated isw York today In the sixth him of the aerie br the orrrwhelmlnir score of 13 to 2. thus irlvlns; It the four neces sary srsmes out of the six played to carrr off baseball's greatest honor.

The losers will receive the remainder, t:i.lt4 :i. or i:il. for each New York player. - Coming from behind after New York bad scored one run In the first Innlnr, the Athletics tied the score In the third, won the (tame In the fourth by making four runs, made It a little safer tn the sixth, when they added another run. and crushed the Olants In the sev enth under an avaUnche of seven hits which, with a couple of mlsplays. add ed seven more runs to the total. The sensational hlttlnsr of all th pitchers the New Yorkers sent Into the box aroused the excited crowds to the greatest enthusiasm. With victory In their grasp, the Athletics appeared to let down and when the. seventh In ning was over, the cheering thousands started to leave the grounds. Pitcher Hit I mercifully. The struggling National League champions sent In three pitchers to stem the tide. But all were hit alike. Wlltse getting the worst. The two others were Ames, who started the fame, and Marquard, who followed Wlltse Into the bcw. Thirteen hits for a total of 17 bases was the record shown by the hit column when the game was over. Every member of the team got a bangle with the exception of Collins and Bender, but the former made a timely sacrifice that helped to score a run. When the game began. Catcher Thomas was the only member of the White Klephant team who had not made a hit In the series. He got Into the honor column In the seventh In ning and the rest of tkp players them selves cheered Thomas. Marray'a Average Zero. Murray, of the New York team. Is the only one of Its regulars who failed to connect with any Athletic pitcher In the aeries for a hit. Bender's work In the box surprised the spectators. Three singles and a double were all the New Yorkers could garner off his delivery. The two-base hit was made by Ioyle In the first In ning, and he scored later when Murphy muffed an easy fly. From this time the Indian was never In trouble. New York got a alngle In the third and one In the fifth. In the ninth Bender appeared to slow down and Henog hit him for a single and en a two-base hit subsequently scored. A total of eight errors were made by the two teams, but the game was bril liantly played. Numerous spectacular feats brought the cheering crowd to Its feet Devvret Catch Brilliant. Pevore. left fielder for New York, robbed Lord of a three-base hit by a great sprint, catching his long fly In center field. Baker and Davis made sensational running catches of foul files and Collins electrified the spec tators by a stop and throw of a ter rific grounder bark of second base that no one thought he could reach. The Philadelphia team was charged with five errors and all were made on the easiest kind of chances. Two of New York's three errors were wild throws, which vrrtually started Its downfall. ' The crowd that saw the Athletics win the championship was the smallest of the series, numbering 19.485. but what It lacked In number was marie up In enthusiasm. There was little noise until the third Inning, when the Athletics tied the score and when the home team cut loose In the fourth and subsequent rounds there waa never a let-up In the cheering. Rooters Cheer Loatllr. Every player got a rousing hand as he stepped to the plate. Hank errors were overlooked, and finally the Ath letics so far outclassed the Olants In the hitting department that the crowd began to cheer In derision every time an Athletic player was thrown out by a New York man. Th fourth Inning was noisy, but It waa nothing compared to the seventh, when ten Athletic stepped to the plate to take a crack at the pitching. A bit of sentiment on the part of Captain Harry Davis was cheered when he sent the Injured Mclnnes Into the game In the ninth. "Stuffy" took the last putout and officially figured In the series. Chief Meyers also retired near the ead of the game In favor or Wilson, probably for th same reason. Beadev Weaderfal Harler. Before the gam began. It looked as If Flank would be the pitcher and there was some surprise among the en thusiasts when Connie Mack sent Ben der Into the box. The chief proved he could pitch more than two games a week. Philadelphia made nine hits and II run In th two feature Innings of the game. In the fourth, with the score a tie. Baker opened the Inning with a slashing single to centerfield. The crowd called on Murphy to bring him around and he almost did It by landing Baker on third with a single to centerfield. Th veteran Davis then came up and hit a grounder to Doyle, who threw to the plate, but Baker was In with the run by a beautiful slid under Meyers. Asaes Tarwwe Ball away. This run gave the home team th lead. With non out. Barry laid down a bunt and In fielding the ball to first Ames hit Barry on the head and th ball rolled out to right field. Murphy and Davis rounded the bases to the plate. Barry put on steam and started to sprint to second. Murray made a poor throw to catch the flee;-footed short atop and Barry made a dash for home, crossing: th plat with th fourth run. j Thomas. Bender and Lord then went out In order. In the sixth, the Athletics got a run on Murphy's two-base hit and two outs and In the seventh the Athletics put the world's championship in the can. Bender opened the seventh' inning with a fly to Doyle. Lord singled to the infield and Oldrlng put him on third with a single to center. Collins hit to Wlltse. who threw to Merkle, and when the latter dropped the throw, Lord sprinted across the plate. Collins waa safe. Slaughter la Terrible. Oldrlng scored on Baker's drive over Doyle's head, and Collins went to third; Murphy pushed a single Into center field and Collins came home. Baker stopping at second. Davis sent Baker home and Murphy to third on a smash to right field and a moment later Mur ray came home when Barry lifted the hall Into the crowd lor two Dases, Davis going to third.

Then up came Thomas, the ninth at bat In the inning, and shot out his first hit of the series. Baker came up and Thomas started for second and was thrown out. Myers to Fletcher. It looked as if Thomas purposely went out to end the Inning, Ttenrier struck out. After that big Inning the Athletics did not appear to try hard. All inter eat In the outcome of the battle waa gone and the big crowd started home ward. Baa Johaaoa Delighted. There was no more scoring until the ninth, when Herxog crossed the plate on his single, a poor throw, a wild pitch and Fletcher's out. When the game was over, that part -of the crowd which did not leave the grounds before the game was ended, remained and participated In a celebration. They cheered the players, who had dived under the end of the stands for the clubhouse. Ban Johnson, president of the Amer ican League, was all smiles after the game. "Delighted." waa the only com ment he had to make. All records for attendance and re ceipts for a world's championship series were broken.

Is In bed here with serious Internal Injuries received In yesterday's game at New York, 'when he wrenched his Intestines. Today his condition Is much worse. Three doctors succeeded in re ducing; the Injury, and no operation will be necessary. Coombs will be In bed a week. He will be able to pitch apaln next season. Coombs said In the sixth Innlnpr his cleats cauftht In the hole In the pitch ers' box. When he delivered the ball he felt a terrific Jar. Tain was intense on the r1rht side, but he pitched on. In the ninth he had to quit. Rupture of Intestines Is what killed Dr. Mike Powers, the Athletics' catcher, several years aco. GIANTS CRUMPLE UNDER AWFUL FIRE Silent Treatment Most Fitting for Game, Says Matty, Giants' Pitcher. 13 TO 2 IS DOLEFUL STORY Bettor Tram Won, Declares Losing Team's Star Pitcher Extreme Youth Is Conquered by Experi ence and- Own Errors. - (Crm tinned From in rat Paare.) around. Murphy and Davis preceding him. It was the beginning of the end. and we had kicked an opportunity to win the championship of the world away ourselves. But I shall always remember that fan's yelling; "nice head work" at Barry as the ball bounced. Prom that point the game was gone. The rest was Just hitting. All the Ath letics had to do was to try something and It worked. They tried the equeeze and the run scored; they tried It the other day and failed. We never had another chance. In conclusion, let us look at the se ries analytically. I freely admit that the Athletics were the better club In the series better for two very obvious reasons, so palpable that perhaps it is needless to mention them. Their pitch ers were better than ours and they out hit the Giants. One follows the other. II In Stake Cause Kervonsneea. Rut in spite of the fact that I admit the Athletics are a great ball club, and that the. team deserves all the honor which It has won. say that the Giants have not hit up to their normal stand ard In this series Just closed and you have It. The plthcing we faced waa good, but no better than we have been hlttlna; all season In the National League. Look at Murray In this series, for 'n- stance. Throughout the season he was one of the most dangerous hitters on the 'club and broke up many a game for us. He did not get a hit. He Just couldn't get going, and each time that he went to the bat and returned ernpty- handed worried him more until it began to eat Into him toward the end of the series. Snodgrass failed to get on the ball as he should, and Merkle was away off form. Of course a winner always looks better than a loser, but the Olants looked more like the real Giants in the game on ednesuay at the Polo Grounds than at any other time. Giants Too Young. There was a psychological difference between the two teams, too. The Ath letics had been through the Are of one world's series and knew what to expect. It was all new to the Giants and most of them are young, and the Importance of the series and the amount of money at stake were in their minds "all the time. Crandall did not realize that his hit made it possible for us to divide about $30,000 among the members of our team. But that was where he was dif ferent from most of the others. Bach time that a player tried to do some thing he thought about what was at stake. A man would kick a ball and say to himself, "There goes that new automobile I had planned to get." The season Is over, and there Is little left to do or say. The Athletics won because they were the better team In the six games. If the Giants win the pennant next season they will be older and more seasoned. But what Is the use of prophesying at this tlmeT The season has Just died. Let it rest.

E to the victory. Doyle was safe at the plate by 15 feet, and the question of whether he slid over the plate or Just alongside of It is a matter of minor Importance to me. I never have, and never will, bicker over decisions of the umpires. The frame will stand as a victory for New York." GIANTS OCTIIIT BY ATHLETICS Baker and Doyle Lead Their Respec tive Teams in Batting. Even the shouting: Is over. Nothing remains but to glance at the figures, which give mute evidence of the Ath letics' superiority over the National League champions. At least. It Is true In batting. The Quakers maintained a substantial lead In hitting all through the series. Butcher Baker and Captain Doyle lead their respective teams in batting for the series. The former has a bit on the Gotham man. too. Barry and Murphy, of Philadelphia, came up strong at the finish.
