THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, TUESDAY, OCTOBER 7, 1930 pl td Foxx's Ninth Inning Homer Provides Sensational Finish ih RECEPTI a0 To Spectacular Ball Game Athletics and Cards Battle B! 8 to Give A's Lead in Fifth Game of World Poles Out Home Run Into Left Field Bleachers, Cochrane Ahead of Him, With One Out in the for Eight Tonihgs Without Scor- Series, and Then Jimmy Series--Grimes and Grove Stage Wonderful Hurling Duel--Play Again in Phila- _ delphia Tomorrow fated Press Sports Editor A Park, St. Louis, Oct, 7.~--~Acting on ir Vg heory that no strategy Is effective than a good ol1-fashioned wallop into the stands, burly Jim- my Foxx, the kid nrst baseman himself, drove out a home run in the ninth inning yesterday to give the world's championship Philad- elphia Athletics a sensdtional 2-0 victory over the St. Louls Cardinals and the lead once more in the bat- tle for baseball's biggest cash prize and Honors. Foxx's terrific drive, with 'one out and Mickey Cochrane on firat, broke up a remarkable pitchers duel between the veteran Burleigh Grimes, Cardinal spitball star, and the twin aces of the A"s--George ' Parnshaw and Robert Moses Grove. i ¥ » heh Farnshaw, after holding the Cardinals to two hits in seven inn- ings, was relieved for a pinch kit- ter and Lefty Grove, back in the box for the second straight day, received credit for the trimanph, his second of the series, by checking the Red Birds in the.lrst two inn- ings. pet told, the Cardinals made only three safe hits off the two fireball flingers, while the A's collected a mere handful of five off the moist offerings of Grimes. . Dramatic Finish to Thriller It was a dramatic finish to a thrilling game, Orimos had stop- ped the Athletics in the eighth after they filled the b.ses with only one out. Snarling, taunting, the old war horse was still yelling and pitching defiance as he forced Al Simmons to pop up after walking Cochrane at the start of the ninth, Big Burleigh took a few seconds to hitch his belt and uniform and address some derisive comments in the direction of the A's bench and to the patriarchal Connie Mack in particular before turning to face Foxx. Big Jimmy had hit satly In a previous time at bat, getting one of the two safe hits off Grimes in the first seven innings, but the Cardin- als' pitcher seemed supremely con- fident he was past his worst trouble ~=Simmons. Disdaining to use his spitter, ~ Grimes loosed a low, fast curve, Tt was the first ball pitched and Foxx "was ready for it. There was a sharp crack as though a whip had heen lashed out. High into the left field bleachers soared the ball, among the spectators. St. Louis Fans Stunned 'The silence of'a funeral suddenly enveloped the stands, holding an- other tremendous crowd of 38,544 fans, a few hundred short of vester- day's record 'outpouring. The reaction, as thanegh a end. den pall of gloom hed Aritind do +n from the leaden and slightly leaky skies, could be felt by evarv apa ne Cochrane and Foxx trotted-around the bases after the stroke that ad- ministered the "kiss of death" to Grimes and dealt a smashing blow to the Cardinals hopes of triumph, Thus the warring forces left to- night for Philadelphia with the Athletics holding a lead of "hree games to two and needine jnst one + more victory to clinch thefr second successive world's cham»'onship The sixth game is scheduled for « Wednesday at Shihe Park, and the seventh, if necessary, on Thursday in the same place. : Hard Fought Battle Up until the ninth yesterday a battle was easily the closest, hard- est fought and most exciting of the series as the two well-matched teams fought desperataly Sor any and every advantage, fully realizing that the winner figured largely to become the ultimate world's cham- ZANT" LUMBER (0 . Hlons. Everyone in the big park, dis- regarding the occasional sprinkle of rain drops and the heavily over- cast skies that forced a thick baze over the field, sat_tensely through the first eight innings of scoreless fighting. ; Through the first seven frames, each pitcher allowed only two safe hits, Cochrane singling off Grimes in thé first and Foxx in the fifth, while Frisch touched Earnshaw for a single in the first and Wilson for a double in the seventh. Grimes Effective Not a Mackman got so far as second base in the first seven inn- ings, so effective was Grimes in the pinches. Not a Cardinal got he- yond the middle station, and only two, Gelbert in the third and Wilson in the seventh, advanced that far as the innings rolled by.

The 18-hole medal com- petition was played over the old course and the scoring was fairly good on the par 78 course, six play- ers playing to better than their hand. icaps and one being just even, Miss Cecil Smith of the Toronto Golf Club the provincial champion and runner- up in the recent Ontario close tour- ney, turned in the low gross with an 84; one stroke better than her club- mate, Mrs. E. W, Whittington, the city title-holder, who in turn was two strokes in front of Miss Ada Mac- kenzie of the Ladies Club, Mrs, Ed. dis of Rosedale, and Mrs. R. W, Gouinlock of the Toronto Golf Club. Miss Smith 'was out in 40, one over par, having a birdie on the fifth hole and being two over on the third. Coming in she was not so steady, haying a birdie on the thirteenth, but being two over on the tenth and one over on each of the twelfth, four- teenth, fifteenth and eighteenth holes. Mrs. Whittington was out in 46, be- ing quite a distance down in the standing at the turn, but she came home in par, being the only player to equal par for either nine during the day. Miss Mackenzie, playing over her old home course, was in the running until she took an eight on Big Chief. GALLANT FOX MAY HAVE RUN LAST RACE Jamaica Race Course, N.

PLAY SEIBERLINGS IN TORONTO TOMORROW NIGHT "Pll Bust Up This Game Right Now," Says Jimmy Foxx' as He Steps Up in 9th And Promptly Smacks Ball for a Homer. (By Charles W. Dunkley Aisocl sted Press Sports Writer) St. Louis, Oct, 7.--~It was a snarling defiant flock of Cardinals that hurriedly packed their lusg- gage after dropping 8 heart-break- ing 2 to 0 game to the Athletics in the fifth battle of the world's series. They were one down to the White Elephants, but they were not down and out.by a long ways in spirit. They openly muttered de- fiance with Gabby Street, their manager, declaring they would certainly win two games in Phila- delphia. There was no solemn, de- pressed air of a burial in the Car- dinal dressing-room, To hear them shout, the impression prevailed that they won instead of lost yes- terday. Well Pitched Game "It was 4 well pitched ball game that anyone could have busted up," Street said, "and Grimes nor anybody else is excited about los- ing it. We're going to Philadel- phia heads up and determined to win the next two games." The old sarge sala he would start "Wild Bill" HaMahan, the pug-nosed Irish kid who blanked the A's Batufday, and expected that Connie Mack would counter with Robert Moses Grove. "It was lucky that Foxx had to hit a low, fast curve ball, We had no idea of passing him. He was just .lucky, that's all, The team that got the breaks got all the luck that went with it." Frankie Frisch, captain of the Cards, said he did not drop the ball in the eighth inning after tag- ging Haas at second base, Foxx a Sage "Umpire Gelsel," Frisch bellow ed, "must have been blind, I hung right on to the ball, but he made his ruling and gouldn't change it despite the fact that he was wrong." Jimmy Foxx," the hero of the game, not only is a home run hit ter of distinction, but he is a sage, During the contest, Jimmy told his mates he'd win the/game with. a home run, He did just that. Before grabbing his bat in the dramatic ninth inning, Foxx yell- ed back to the players on the bench: "I'll bust up this ball game right now!" He stepped to the plate, caught one of Grimes' low ones, and der ricked it into the left centre field bleachers, Thriil for Mack That smash gave Connie Mack the greatest thrill of the year. The 67-year-old leader of the Ath letics, sitting on the bench, saw the ball sail into the bleachers and Foxx trot triumphanty home, "My heart heat faster at that momept than it has all year," said Connie, "I knew from the sound of the erack that |* was a homer. I tried my. best to keep calm, but inside T was burning up. '"Qutside of that one hit there was nothing except the pitching, which was about as brilliant as I ever saw in the. World Series. iarnshaw was even better than he was in the second game, He was faster and had better control, As for Grimes, he was every bit as good until Jimmy Foxx swung his hig bat in the ninth." Chicago Cubs Capture City Baseball Title Chicago, Oct. 7.--A bristling ninth-inning finish that capped a wild afternoon of baseball yester- day gave the Cubs a 6 to 4 victory over the White Sox and 'left the Chicago city championship in pos- session of the National League, four games to two, What started out to be a pitch. ing battle between Sheriff Fred Blake of the Cubs, and young Pat Caraway of the Sox, became a cat and dog fight in the last six in- nings. 3 The Cubs had a two-run lead in the fifth, only to have the Sox tie it up in their half of the same in- ping. The Sox went in front in the sixth, but the Cubs jammed over a run in the eighth to knot it again. Donie Bush's men came right back for another in their half of the eighth, and 'the American League again was In front, In the ninth, however, the Cubs cut loose with a drive that could not be denied, scoring three, Johnny Evans Will = Coach Saulte Team in Gridiron Revival Sault Ste.
