Boston Scores Twice in Early Innings
on Big Pitcher’s Wildness and Timely
Hits—Gardner, Yerkes, Cady, Star.
NEW YORK. Oct. ll.—The Boston Red Sox this afternoon won
the fourth game of the world’s championship series with the New
York Giants. Here is how the game was played:
FIRST INNING.
With Kigler on balls and strikes,
O’Loughlin on bases. Klem in right
and Evans in left, they get away In
fine style. Ozark Jeff Tesreau gives
Hooper three balls and Anally grooves
one. that Hooper poles to center for a
single. Yerkes makes a fine bunt in
front of the platter and Meyers, in his
eagerness to stop Hooper at second,
throws there. It is a wretched heave
and goes over Doyle's head. Hooper Is
held on second and Yerkes is safe at
first. . Speaker hita ,i«io a. nasty dou
ble. The ball goes to Fletcher, who
touches out Yerkes and then retires
Speaker to Merkle. Lewis also grounds
to Fletcher and is out at first. No
runs, one hit, one error.
Wood victimises Devore, who fans.
Doyle develops a single to left center
that sets the stands to howling. Snod
grass grounds to Gardner and Doyle is
forced at second. Then Snodgrass
seems smitte’ff with an idea that he can
steal and takes a tremendous lead to
ward second. It is a fatal think. With
a flashy turn and snap, Wood catches
Snodgrass flat-foerted off the bag and
lie retires, amidst groans from the
bleachers. No runs, one hit, no errors.
SECOND INNING.
Larry Gardner opens up for the Red
Sox. and he opens strong. The first
ball Tesreau pitches him is shoulder
high and a bit on the outside. Larry
hurls himself into it with a terrible
swipe and the ball soars- to right field
for a clean triple. It Is a tough blow
for Tesreau and he is worse than wor
ried. He winds up tensely, lets fly at
the plate and the, ball soars over Mey
ers' head—a wild pitch—and Gardner
scores. Stahl flies out to Doyle. Wag
ner lifts one to Snodgrass. Cady strikes
out on four pitched balls One run, one
hit, no errors.
Murray is up. One strike, two strikes,
three strikes, and he's down again, a
victim of Wood’s smoke. With two
straight strikes on Merkle. Wood pulls
a bone and tries to slip one straight
over. It does not get there. Instead
Merkle legns into it for a single. On
the first ball pitched he is down for a
steal, and makes it. with a sweeping
fadeaway. Herzog grounds to Yerkes
and Merkle dashes for third. There is
no chance to head him. so Yerkes
makes the safe play and throws Her
zog out to Stahl. Meyers makes a
corking effort to produce and laces out
a tremendous fly. Lewis, with a game
run. gets under it—and the side la out.
No runs, one hit, no errors.
THIRD INNING.
Tesreau makes another bad start —it
seems to be getting chronic with him—
wiien he slips the second ball across
for Wood and the Boston pitcher ham
mei s it out for a single. Thia sets
Ozark Jeff's nerves on edge again and
he walks Hooper, slipping in only' on a
strike among the four balls. Yerkes
grounds to Tesreau, who forces Wood
at third to Herzog. Speaker advances
both runners with a grounder to Doyle,
but retires at first. I.ewis has a swell
chance for fame, but can only ground
to Fletcher, who handles the ball neat
ly and ’hrows him out to Merkle. This
is fine work for the Giants in pulling
out of a deep chasm.
No runs, one hit, no errors.
With one strike on Fletcher, he
grounds a sloppy one to Wood and 1»
out at first. Tesreau stands up and
chops at three pitched balls, with no
material effect. Devore lands on the
second bail pitched him and eends a
glass-cutter to Gardner, who throws
him out at first. Only seven balls are
pitched by Wood in this inning Smoky
Joe seems to have a lot more than he
did Tuesday, and if he keeps this clip
Hh■>' is nothing to it, for Tesreau is
wild No runs, no hits, no errors.

which are near the plate. Stahl near
ly spoils it for the Sox by bunting so
briskly to Tesreau that the Ozark lad
is able to throw Gardner out at sec
ond. Stahl makes up for this, however
by stealing second In fine fashion'
Wagner grounds down the first base
path and Is out to Merkle, while Stahl
scurries along to third. This puts it up
to Cady, who overlooked such a tre
mendous chance yesterday, but this
time Forrest delivers with a single
through Fletcher The Giant shortstop
grabs bravely at the ball, but it Is too
hot to stop and It spins him around
and passes on to the outfield. Wood
flies to Murray. One run. one hit, n 0
errors.
Doyle has no chance at al! with
Wood. With two strikes and a ball on
him. he grounds feebly and is out,
Yerkes to Stahl. Snodgrass fans. Mur
ray fans. In this half inning twelve
balls are pitched. Wood never appeared
better tn his life and there is only one
question—can he keep ft up? No runs,
no hits, no errors.
FIFTH INNING.
Hooper lifts to Murray, who goes
after It with one hand and spears it—
another sensational play for Red.
Yerkes singles to left. It gets him
nothing, however, for Speaker can de
velop nothing better than a grounder tn
Herzog, who throws Steve out to Doyle:
Speaker tries to make amends for this
by stealing, but Meyers nails him eas
ily and he is touched out by Doyle.
No runs, one hit, no errors.
Merkle grounds one to .Wagner and
is out to Stahl. Herzog then cheers up
the Giant fans with a single that slips
past Jake Stahl. Meyers is up, but he
is no pinch performer in this game and
fans. Fletcher puts up a mighty effort
but It develops into nothing but a
grounder to Wagner, and he is out to
Stahl. No runs, one hit, no errors.
SIXTH INNING.
Lewis takes three hacks at the ball,
with no visible effect. Gardher lifts a
high one .just outside fair territory
near third base and Herzog gathers it
in With Stahl up and a couple of ball*
called. Tesreau discontinues operations
long enough to put up a loud yell on
the decisions. He claims that Rigier
is not giving him the corners. Maybe
there is something io this, for the next
three hurls are called strikes and Stahl
sits down.
No runs, no hits, no errors.
Wood takes a chance with Tesreau.
who singles. Devore makes another
single. A fast runner might have made
third on this, but not Tesreau. He
takes second. Doyle lifts one to
Yerkes. Snodgrass grounds to Yerkes
and Devore is forced at second io Wag
ner. Murray's grounder forces Snod
grass.
No runs, two hits, no errors.

pitched balls. Wood hits the second
