DSORE'S GREAT CATCH GAVE GIAfiTS r nr Turin L FIRST GAM inn n'P crnirc Ur IIIL WUILU 0 OLIVILO OUTFIELDER MAKES A RUNNING CATCH OF CADY'S FLY Bj Larry Doyle, Second Baseman of the Giants. ' (Copyright, J912. by the Aaaoclated Newspapers.) Boston, Oct, When the Reel JSox g got two men on the bases, one on eecunu and the other on third, with two out In the ninth Inning, there was nothing nextufcatter,, Cady, would do.. On him ' hong the game, and perhaps the world's , ; aeries. , We had just lost a sure chance to - win the battle when Merkle had dropped . Fletcher's throw for the final out tne ' j game. Baseball superstition has It ' when a team kick away an easy chance to win game, through that error it wouldjie. Jost, and ray feelings were far from ', comfortable when I mw . Cadv - coming tap tothe plate.. He Is a hard liltter a vicious smasher, a bad man In a pinch,; With the ability to drive the ball far. I turned and motioned back the outfielders, particularly Josh De vore In left field, because Cady' swings , rlghthanded. When Merkle had dropped - that ball I feared the luck had awltched and that now things would break for the Red Sox. I could feel my heart beating In my throat "! - Cady'a drive Brilliantly Caught. Then came that drive of ' Cady'a to left field, thai tef rifle; amashi and aa I turned waa aura tha ball ?wa over l a Devore't head; that, fleet aa he Is, he -j would never make It . It traveledl on a ,. line for what seemed to be an eternity 1 before the steadiness of its momentum J broke, , and' It started ' to bend down. . ... uevore was running arier u, running if wits all his speed, and he, the fastest t man on the 4am, sure It waa over his '' bead. Then with a final lunge he got ' his hands on the ball, but it did nut ' wem "poaaible that he could hold It. . I There, was a moment of heBitancy, and he swung around and ran for the bench i tightly grasping the ball. Tears fell off I my life when I saw him do that. The - faun shone again. J ran to shake his hand. 80 ft Is with all world's aeries. ? The unheralded man becomes star. ' Throughout the season Devore had been panned for his poor hitting and his lax i fielding. Once there waa some gossip 1 - about him being traded, but in the most Important contest of the series to date he steps Tout and 'makes'the play which saves the game. - "JoBl! ia, a headier J' ball player In a hard battle when there ta a lot at stake than In an ordinary ? game. After I got through grabbing "... Jilm by the hand,' I said to. him:. "How " j did you hold It?" "Mostly In that one glove," he replied. "Didn't have time to get my other mlt on It, the ball was go f Ing too fast" ' --- Was a Regular catch. , t That la what I shall -call a regular 'catch. It had to be made or we would have lost the game. We took a chance on that when we let Wagner steal around second base in the ninth Inning .wiw euuu on imra wnnuui even mu Ing a try to atop him. A hit meant twe f runs and the game to the Bed Sox. Then, ,i ir wagner haa been ncia on rirst it ; would have meant only a tie. I "We win this game or lose," was what ( McQraw said on the bench, so the boys . told me afterward. ; s don't want any more ties," and he aigned to Meyers not to make the throw to second. Then came the catch of De von's which I, have tried to describe as well as to emphasize Its value to the Giants and their chances of final vic tory. Buba Pitched Great Ball. "Rube Marquard" pitched a graa game of ball for us. We saw from the 1 BEN SELLING Leading Clothier The Greatest $2.00 Hats in the World at THE HAT BOX Cor. Second and Morrison ONLY ONLY J LILLAGAR The Hatter SECOND & MORRISON , 335 Morrison, Just t of th comer of 2nd. ' first Inning that ha was the Marquard of old, the one who was hot to be beaten In the early part of the season. He had control of his curve ball, and he pos sessed the 'amoke'Mo cross the batters. He knew that we were all behind him fighting, and he waa la there pitching bis best I guess maybe he. didn't show those Boston batters something about pitching. He had a break on his curve ball that made them mlsa It by yards. You could tell by the way In which they were swinging at It that they had no notion of where it waa going? It waa the . best pitched game of the seriea so far, and all the way through It "Rube" never lost his head, never forgot Just what he was doing, and attended strictly to pitching. ; le deserves plenty of credit for his work. He showed them we could hit the Boston pitcher. O'Brien I did not look good to me, and we hit him hard all through the game, although many of the drives were right at the fielders. We had been on the bases in many innings,-which shows that wo hit him. Ha also displayed very little con trol. He was in the hole most of the time, Wahave had a look at the Bos ton pitchers, and none except Wood haa beaten us.. We hit him; and I think that we will hit him today, if he works. The Red 8ox did. not act very chipper coming down from Boston in the train last night We aeemed to have them on the run, and they acted like a ball club which has tried everything and has been stopped. We have all the breaka on the pitching now, aa McQraw can use Tes- reau today, and come back with Mat hewson at Boston on Saturday Stahl may try Wood today, but he has no veteran to use on Saturday. He may start Collins again, but If ha doea he will never beat us. We all decided that we liked his style of pitching, and with the right handed .batters In the lineup we will hit him harder than , we did Wednesday. Tajpks Beds Are Worried. ' The Red Sox looked worried, StaM's face waa drawn and the men acted as merry . aa If . they were on the way . to their own funeral. If we can get them feeling that way they are beaten. There will be nothing to It. "Now that you have got the Jump on them keep it," 'said McOraw last night We are going to keep It The heroes of the game yesterday were Murray and Herzog again. Both are playing like fiends In this series. John Murray's double gave the Giants their .Ural. run. because it was XoiloweJ by a sacrifice, and Heraog's sacrifice fljTand Hersog's double in the fifth grew tip into our second run. We .had lots of other opportunities to score, but failed tojand. I am glad to see Mur ray doing so-well in this series, as he deserves all the praise that he can cet He received enough roasting last year. 'Xhe Boston players were sulky on the traln,and do not seen to be in the right frame of mind. There Is no raillery be tween the contending teams, 'as pre vailed In the opening game, and It Is more of a war. The players of the op posing clubs only growl at each other now, unless they are trying to get a man'a "goat" There's practically no sociability, and I would rather aee it that way. You know you are In a fight then. I believe that It Will be one of the most bitterly contested world's series in the history of baseball. itOESTfER BLOWS UP IHHH 116 Seals Make Five-Runs and Cinch Game, Stopping . Portland Rally.
