Bot 4th: Duff Cooley robbed George Davis of an extra base hit. First baseman Jake Beckley rocketed 2 homeruns and had 5 RBI as the New York Giants defeated the Philadelphia Phillies by the score of 13 to 8 at Polo Grounds. Beckley punished Philadelphia with his bat. He delivered a solo blast in the 4th inning, slapped a base-hit scoring a run in the 5th inning and belted a three-run homer in the 6th inning. This was a game of many highs and lows for the home town fans, as the lead kept changing - 5 times in all. The win went to Ed Doheny(5-7) who allowed 8 runs in 8 and 1/3 innings. Jack Taylor(15-20) was the losing pitcher. He served up 3 gopher balls in 8 innings. 'Actually, I didn't feel that comfortable at the plate today' Beckley said after the game. 'Despite that, I'm happy with the results!
