Philadelphia's Official Scorer of World' Series Game.
PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 8. The Phillies won the" first game of the World's,
Series from the Red Sox after a thrilling but poorly played game. The final
core was 3 to 1. J
The Phillies did not gain their victory until the last half of the eighth
inning, when slow thinking by Scott, Shore's wlldness and poor Adding enabled
the Phillies to score the two winning runs. Boston had tied the score In the
early urst half of the same inning when Lewis singled to left, scoring Speaker,
who had previously walked.
Alexander the Great would have regis-.
terM a shut-out had it not been for a
temporary fumble of Hoblitzel's g'rounder
by Milton Stock. With Speaker on flrst
and one man out. Stock juggled Hob
litzel's grounder, but recovered In time
to retire, Hoblitzel. Speaker, however,
"reached second, whereas ho should easily
have been forced at that bag had Stock
handled the ball cleanly. Lewis' second
single followed and scored Speaker,'
Although he was deprived of the shut
et through this mlscue, Alexander was
really outpltchcd by young Ernlo. Shore
the. giant right bander of the Red Sox.
Alexander was not quite as fast as
usual and his curve ball was not break
Ing properly, but his nerve was -strong In
the pinches, as the pine men. 'left on
bases and eight hits with but one run
proved conclusively. iTlve hts we're nl

Speaker let the first ball pass for a
strike. The next was a beautiful curve,
which Speaker allowed to pass", '.and the
umpire called It a strike. The third went

served another ball. Speaker passed an
other ball and the count was 3 to 2.

The Bostoneso Red Sox bulged up
against a great pltchVr today, fought him
for a while and then retired, shy one
world's scries game. And now all the
glory that was Rome's and Tyre's and
Nlnevah's is the Phillies' and' Pat
Moran's,
A near-riot broke loose when Hooper
pop-filed out and all was over. The fans
rolled onto the field like a section of the
German army and then turned loose .very
much unlike an army and did a'war
dance. Boston's Royal Rooters, grim; and
game, stuck right royally to their drums
and cheered tho -victors like good sports
men. Tho flrst rush of tho supposedly supe
rior Sox machine had been hurled back
by Alex and tho Phillies. The dope had
taken another fall and Philadelphia again
saw visions of a world's championship
flag.
The autopsy started before the fans
had left the field. Experts who gravely
asserted that the Red Sox would win,
gptto work on alibis, and Pat Mofan,
remembering that a managerial position
requires dignity, controlled a desire to
dancaand ran off the field with a grin.
Why shouldn't ho grln7
Something like 21,000 settled Into nar
row scats at Phllly Park and breathed
a sigh of relief at 2 o'clock when the
game was called. They had gone through
exertions worse than those that ex
plorers and soldiers boast about.
When the park was, filled a wave of
humanity hit the stubborn walls of the
citadel with a dull sickening thud, figura
tively speaking, and fell back beaten. It
represented the fans who failed to et
tickets.
There were two incidents, sad and sor
rowful, that stood out in the general riot
of exuberance at the opening game. One
was the .Blight of the 33-ycar rooters who
failed' to get in, the other a wonderfully
capacious looking expanse of roof Just

tho Boston Red Sox today, capturing the
flrst contest of the world's series of 1915.
While the game Itself was not so bril
liantly played as somo of the games dur
ing tho season, because of the slow
diamond, the victory was none the less
gratifying to the 20,000 loyal followers of
Pat Moran. Until the game was more

In the eighth gave Boston the tying run,
and the Phillies came back In their half,
putting two across and winning, 3 to 1.
The weather conditions were Ideal. A
warm breeze floated across the field and
the sun shone brightly on the gaily
dressed spectators. There, was not a mo
ment during the game that applause was
not heard either from the thousands- of
Phlladelphlans or from the little group
of Royal Rooters from Boston- The fans
showed their appreciation of Alexander's
work by almost smothering htm with
congratulations when Harry Hooper filed
to Luderus lit the ninth inning for. the
last out,
Alexander allowed one hit in each In
ning until the ninth, but, with men on
the bases, he was effective on every oo
caslon but one. Six batsmen succumbed
on strikes and only twice did Alex give a
