WEB GEMS- Top 2nd: Art Fletcher robbed Bill Sweeney of a base hit.
          Top 9th: Art Fletcher robbed Frank Schulte of a base hit.

Center fielder Bob Bescher had 3 base hits as the New York Giants bested the
Chicago Cubs in 18 innings 2 to 1 at Polo Grounds.

The game was deadlocked at 1 after nine full innings.  New York ended up
winning it in the 18th inning.  After an out was recorded, Sandy Piez hit a
single.  John McGraw then called for a steal which was successful.  After
another out, Bescher then laced a single resulting in a mighty exciting win
for New York and the 5,867 home town fans in attendance.  New York had a
total of 15 hits for the game.  

Christy Mathewson(12-10) got credit for the victory, pitching 2 and 2/3
innings and allowing no runs. Casey Hageman(3-4) was charged with the loss in
relief.  He was the victim of a defensive lapse and did not allow an earned
run in the game.  

New York continued their winning ways, with their streak now at 6 games and
counting.
