TEAM RISP- Giants: 5 for 15  Rustlers: 5 for 13

Fred Merkle launched 2 homeruns and had 6 RBI as the red-hot New York Giants
really laid it on the Boston Rustlers 20 to 9.

Merkle was really in 'the zone'.  He laced a one-base hit which was good for
two runs in the 1st inning, hit a bases-empty home run in the 3rd inning,
popped a two-run clout over the fence in the 4th inning and ripped a single
in the 9th inning.  New York bats were hot in the 4th inning which saw them
plate 8 runs on 7 hits and the 8th inning scoring 6 runs.  New York finished
with 20 hits while Boston ended up with 13.  

Red Ames(3-1) picked up the victory, allowing 9 runs in 8 and 1/3 innings. Al
Mattern(3-2) was the losing pitcher.  He was touched for 3 homeruns in his 7
innings of work.  

'I had good swings today,' Merkle said, 'Everything felt right'.
