brains in their bats, j
Yesterday, it was the Yankees
who knocked at but could not
open the door of opportunity; to
day it was a tale of missed chan
ces by the Giants, though- they
were fewer! than their opponents
had had in the opening game.

Pennock Invincible ;
Except for two innings Pen
nock, Southpaw star 6f Miller
Huggins' staff, had the Giants at
his mercy, twirling with coiusum
ate. 'invincible skill f and backed
up by a defense that at times was
spectacular. Opposed to the frail
looking but superbly confident
left hande'r, were f two of Mc
G raw's mound string, McQuillan,
who was bombarded into retire
ment in the fourth inning, and
Jack Bentley, port; sider, who ex
cept, for Ruth'S second circuit
clout, pitched capably for the rest
of the game. -: j
Pennock's Victorious perform
ance was all the more remarkable
in the face of an accident in the
fourth inning when be was struck
on the side and painfully hurt
by the first ball pitched by' Bent
ley, Pennock fell to the ground,
writhing in agony and it required
several minutes work on him be
fore he was able to walk to first
base. But the mishap apparently
did not lessen in he leat, hJs ef
fectiveness, for he retired ! the
Giants in order in the next two
innings. . -,- ' '.'-'."'' '
The Yanks gathered 10 bits off
McQuillan and , Bentley, only- one
more than the Giants ' collected
off Pennock, but the blows of the
American leaguers were of, the
more eolid variety, i ; Both j : clubs

Aaron "Ward, black-haired sec

Bitterness Shown :
After Ruth's .second homer in
the fifth a clout that brought
the Babe one of the most thun
derous ovations he ever has been
accorded Bob Meusel got to sec
ond when Young mishandled his
single but Pipp and Ward were
easy for Bentley. .-.!
'The first display of , bitterness
that has cropped out in the play
of the rival clubs occurred in the
.sixth when the Giants rally wasj
checked after one run, the last of
the game, had been scored. ' It
looked as if the tide of battle was
about to turn when Groh, Frischj
and Young opened with success
si ve line singles, the fhird packer
scoring on Young's blow but here;
the Yanko defense stiffened be
hind Pennock's cool box work. j
Argue Several Minutes
With Young on first and Frischi
on second, Irish Meusel drove a
grounder to Scott, who tossed to
Ward with an easy double play
in sight. Young was forced' out
but in diving to second he upset
Ward .and blocked.; the throw , to
first. It was the signal for a ve
hement protest by the ; Yankeei
who gathered about Umpire Bob
Hart . to protest against Youngi
play, which, to the crowd, ifeeme
a deliberate pi?ce of tactics. Tb
argument lasted several minutes
before the players went back ti
