AIEXANDER TWIRLS FINE '
' GAME AGAINST THE YANKS
The Score Wa's 6-3—Veteran Only Allows
-—Billy Southworth
Thevenow Circles The
Grover (‘ievelend Alexander. one
of baseball's old mas'ers. uncurled
the mighty power in his ancient.N
right arm to pitch the Cardinals to.
victory over the Yankees yesterday.
in the second game of the worlds:
series before the greatest crovul that
ever saw a ball game. '
The mammoth hankee Stndiunvv
rocked with the roar of a vast and'
record gathering of G3. 000 fans as'
the thlru- nine years old veteran of
the Cardinal staff checked the im-
petuous rush of the Yankees while
his team mates clouted Urban
Shocker. Yankee spit ball ace. from
the box and battered their way to
triumph by the decisive margin of ti
to 2.
It was a rousing victory for the
Cardinals. one that found them
turning the tables on their rivals in
convincing fashion and leaving the
series deadlocked as the teams en-
trained early Iest evening for e base-
ball~mad St. Louis where the bat-
tle will be resumed Tuesday.
For six innings the grey-thatched
raw-boned Alexander, the men who
was "sold down the river" late in
the season as a Cub discard, was
given an even batttle by his veteran
rival. Shocker. but. in the seventh
another Cardinal hero. Bill South-
worth. stepped to the fore with a.
homerun into the right field bleach-
ers, a blow that came with two men
on base. ended a. 2-2 deadlock and
clinched the game.
The Cardinals applied a finishing
touch to their victory in the ninth
when Tommy Thevenow got a freak
home run on a high fly inside the
park that Ruth "misled." but «they
didn't need it. One run would have
been enough to settle the issue for
Alexander was invincible after the
third inning. holding the slugging
Yankees hitless over the last six.
innings. permitting only four safe
blows altogether and striking out
ten men with 'baffling speed. amaz-
ing control and a deceptive change
of pace.
This was world's series drama. of
the most thrilling sort. a game of
brilliant pitching. resounding hit—
ting and tensely stirring moments
that kept the. great crowd keenly on
edge. on in uproarous excitement.
In color and zest it was a. marked
contrast to an unemotional opening
game in which Herb Pennock's mas-
terful pitching was the. dominant
note. Yesterday. too. the skies were
bright and sunshine colored the
scene that had been drab and hazy
yesterday.
it was a fitting climax -'.o such a
game to have it watched'by a crowd 1
of unprecedented proportions. a jam
that filled ewry nook and cranny of
lht‘ big stadium while close to 30,-
000 mere. fans sough‘. in vain to gain
admission.
The attendance of 68.600 not only
eclipsed the former record gathering
of 62.817. set in the 1023 series ‘be-
tween the Giants snd Yankees. but
the total receipts ioday.$201‘.828. al-
so established a new record exceed-
in: the mark of 8201.459 paid by
the previous record crowd.
