In the first game played Tuesday, the Red Aces battled their way to au ast inning win, putting them in the odds on column, but last night the Fittings were determined to even up the series and this they did, + getting one more goal on the mar- gin than the Aces did in their vic- tory. The rubber or final game will be played tonight to decide the junior title, the intermediate play- offs were originally booked for this evening, but were postponed to make way for the deciding of the junior argument. A good size crowd attended the game despite the threatening wea- ther which had cleared up consid- erably before the game started, a little late. ) The Battle Home runs played a large part in the game that kept the fans In- terested from the start, as many me seven circuit clouts being hoisted, some with men on bases and some without. Fittings hitters were re- sponsible for five of these valuable hits while the Cards batters got a pair Fletcher and Thompson bang- ing out the losers' homers. Towns a pitcher for the Fittings, was the dangerous man of the game get- ting two homers out of as many times to bat, while Leyden, Aiken, and Hall gathered in a piece. Fittings started things early, getting four runs in the initial frame, and one more in the second, but the Aces annexed a quartet in their half of the second and repeat- ed the performance in the third to take the lead, but only for a short ramemtred 'in three to tie the score, The Aces went scoreless in the fourth, sixth, and seventh, but ga- thered five in the fifth and a pair in' the eighth, the last inning the Fittings ily increased their to- tal, getting three in the fourth, 4 pair in the fifth, one in the sixth, and three in the eighth, to make their total read 17 to the losers' 15. The winners were also the masts ers in the fielding end of the game, playing the eight innings without a misplay, while the Aces only had two errors, both of which came at critical stages of the game. Three pitchers were used by the teams and all three had 3 strike outs to their credit, they were Campbell, who went the distance for the losers, and Xnox and Towns who had five and three innings for the Fittings. Smart double plays were pulled by both the Fittings and the Aces, Shellenkoff, Goodall and Leyden figuring in the winners double play while Barker, Morris and Evans were the snappy ones for the losers.

YANKS DEFEAT LEADERS Philadelphia, Aug. 9.--Driving Rube Walberg, one of the prized left- handers of the Mackmen from the box in a series of scoring drives, in the first three inmings yesterday the New York Yankees carried off the last game of their important series, 6 to 4. \d Herb Pennock had to leave the game yesterday in the fifth inning after his team mates had given him a five-run lead. But old Cy Moure came in valiantly and retired the A's runless through five smartly pitched innings, allowing only one hit. He was a big factor in the victory. Against Moore was pitted Jack Quinn and after the old timer be- came settled in the fourth, he was as good as Moore. If the game could have been won, Quinn's pitching would have done it, RED WINGED PITCHER WINS Jersey City, Aug. 9--Larry Irvin for Rochester and Bill Henderson for Jersey City hooked up in a pitching duel here yesterday. With Irvin held- ing the Black Cats to two hits, Ro- chester won by a score of 4 to 1. Henderson was a bit wild and the league leaders pushed across three runs in the sixth frame, on four bas- es on balls, two hits, an error and a sacrifice, The Wings pulled a pair of double killings and ran their total for the season to 162 a ---- THIRD IN A ROW Baltimore, Aug. 9.--Baltimore made it three straight from Montreal by taking the final game of the series yesterday 5 to 2, After one bad inning Clarkson pit- ched a good game.

PIRATES TOO GOOD FOR ST. LOUIS Pittsburg, Aug. 9.--Grover Cleve- land Alexander failed yesterday in an attempt to better the late Christy Mathewson's National league record of 372 victories in his career. Old Alex, was defeated by the Pi- rates 5 to 1, but he can blame the reverse upon the poor support the Cardinals accorded him, Gelbert's poor throwing in the fourth paved the way for four Pitts- burg runs which delayed Alex's 373rd triumph. The victory ran the Pirate string over the Cardinals to 12 wins, and two defeats for the season to date, 11 of the games won being success- the eighth. Ulster Get Close Win From Strong Congasco Team Toronto, Aug. 9~Ulster United was forced to the limit to gain a 3 to 2 win from Congasco in an On- tario cup, first round. tilt, at Con- boy park, last night, Congasco gave the Ulstermen a scare, in their re- cent Robertson cup engagement of a few weeks ago when Ulster only won by the orphan goal so the Gas. men were out to win last evening's game with a vengeance and were on- ly prevented from doing so by lack of good direction in front of the Ulster godl, Upon numerous occas- 5 |ions the ball went a-begging when a little good judgment on the part of the Congasco attack would have brought success. Ulster predominated in the firse half of play when Graham and Moir tallied, but Congasco broke into the scoring column early in the second period after Mitchell had eluded Pryor, and Kirk to register a well merited and well taken goal. Graham made it 3 to 1 in Ulster's favor short- ly afterwards and from that on the game turned in by Congasco had the Redhanders guessing, The pressure was so severe around the Ulster goal that it taxed the capacity of the en- tire Irish defence. Smith secured Congasco's second goal after Kirk had made a partial save from Mit- chell, Congasco pressed desperately for the equalizer, but the final whis- tle found the Jlstermen on the long end of the score. LEAFS BATS CHALK UP ONE MORE Reading, Aug. 9.--Continuing their hard and timely batting, and taking advantage of their opponent's ragged fielding, the Leafs yesterday defeat- ed the Reading Keys 9 to 4. It was the sixth congecutive vic- tory for the Leafs over the Keys, three in a row this series, and the game's highlights were Ralph Shin- ners' four hits in five tries, Jonathan Stone's second home run on succes- sive days, and Phil Page's brilliant pitching in a relief role. rn ho BATTING LEADERS | amy National League AB.RH PC Herman, Brooklyn.. 390 76 161 413 'Doul; Phila. ...... 413 96 157 .380 erry, New York .. 432 72 163 .377 Hornsby, Chicago .. 400 102 146 .363 Hendrick, Brooklyn. 277 52 100 .361 Leader a year ago today, Hornsby, Boston, .383.

MEETING Toronto Aug. 9.--Many matters of importance were dealt with by the sub-committee of the Ontario Baseball Amateur Association at its meeting at the Carls-Rite Hotel last evening. The request of "Hoot" Gibson to finish out the season with the St. George's Club of the Western City League was acceded to. Gibson came to Toronto a year ago and has been employed in this city ever since. Lately, however, he accepted a position in his hom : town of Belleville and asked spe | cial dispensation from the govern- ing body. The certificate tax which was levied at the last annual meeting is still unpaid by some of the teams in the association, and it was de- cided that no championship team would be allowed to participate in the O.B.A.A. playoffs unless the certificate tax of all teams and players in their league is paid.
