...inning with the score tied at 3 to 3. This despite another home-run by Hitter Ruth. Batting in the ninth, the Yankees put three men on base with no one out. Then John Miljus, Pittsburgh pitcher, struck out Batters Gehrig and Meusel and had one strike on Batter Lazzeri.

Fielder Hafey spun on his heel to carry the message, when...

Both have done well as homerun hitters. A week ago, Herman led the National League in batting...
