Chtcaao. .30 130 37.47 .33 BABE RUTH HAS MADE FOURJOF SEVEN HOME RUNS OFF OF LEFT-HANDED HURLERS Br BABE RUTH. AST TEAR at this time, I had two home runs to my credit. Yes- terday's smasher made seven for me this season. Old I hear somebody say, "He can't repeat?" Yesterday's lucky ball was the first one sent over by Lefty Leonard in the first inning- It was a fast ball, about waist high.

When It ended up. it was in the upper tier of the right field stand, and it home Pipp ahead of me. It is a noteworthy fact that of the seven home runs to date, four have beea made off southpaws. Still, that is nothing more than the fortunes of war. It might have been the same If they had been righthanders.

You never can tell when a man hits his batting stride. CARDINALS BESTED a cob son, St.Louia.30 108 1 3 Hendryx, Boston. .39 114 II 40 IS1 NATIOXAt. IJCAGU1C. Player and Club.

The first ball over, toot Blouwey! Clean up to the hurricane deck of the Polo grounds atanda. It was Babe Ruth's seventh home run this year, and the season la yet young.

MOTE ni.1T ONE. The Bengals had already scored ne run in the first inning, and the Tanks were at bat. Ward's foul had teen collected by WoodsM and had garnered Peck's lusty drive. PIpp had driven a single to left, and then Mr. George Ruth stepped to the Va and smote the first one down the main line! tm pill landed 'way up in tne wpper tier of the right stands, and Babe dusted around the sacks, driv ing Plppln ahead of htm.

The visiting firemen had scored ne run in the fifth and another In the seventh. Yankee Tie Score The Tankees tied up the score Itv their hair of the seventh when Bodle scored on Hannah's double. Nothing happened in the eighth in the Tigers half of the ninth. However. the aituation was altered to some extent when Fack-lapaugh atepped to the bat.

Lewis's short fly landed in Flag-atead's mitt and Ruel got free transportation 'to the first aack. Qulnn struck out and Ward dropped a puny Texas Leaguer beyond Toung and Ruel got to third. Peckinpaugh poled out aslngle to left and Ruel. dusted home with the winning rua. NMml EUgmnt! YAlftEIM.
