WEB GEMS- Bot 6th: Joe Tinker robbed Fred Tenney of a base hit.

Christy Mathewson hurled a 3 hitter as the New York Giants topped the Chicago
Cubs by a score of 6 to 1 at Polo Grounds.

Mathewson(31-10) was simply too much for the Chicago batters.  He gave up just
3 hits and no walks in 9 innings.  New York managed 10 hits in their victory.

Jack Pfiester(14-9) ended up with the loss.  He allowed 10 hits and 5 walks in
8 innings.  'He had his 'A' game today,' John McGraw said of Mathewson.
'Very impressive performance.'
