CARDINALS AND YANKEES MOVE TO* NEW YORK| I ((•XTlXtliU from page onb» ies history by bitting three home runs in the fourth game of the i lassie, admitted that he was elated that Sher-; del was through for the series. "I cant hit those soft ones and Shordel is one fellow who will not rive you any kind o’ a good ball to woik on." the Babe said on the train Just when he felt that hr was in* his greatest hitting spree, the Babe had a poor day comparatively, In the fifth yame, when he was fanned once, two little taps, a retirement on an infield out and a safety on a fielder s choice when he almost hit into a double play St. Louis was distinctly down in tue mouth when the players left on special tiains for New York after the last game of the first’world's seftes that the city has been permitted to The banners were still hanging frpm the buildings in the main business section, the automobiles still had wind shield banners exhorting the Cardinals to "beat the Yanks and "Come on Cardinals,” but the St. Louis team left home for the rest of the battle in New York without any civic demonstration. There was no ceremony such as greeted the National league champions after they had won the pennant and when they returned from the first tw<> games in New York as a nine-to-five favorite to win the pennant. After « close game, such as Mile final one in St. Louis and after it battle in which the breaks play prom inently, the losing manager is always criticized by the grand stand managers and the grizzled experts. And today on the train. Rogen Hornsby was being criticized because he allowed Sherdel to remain in the box too long. St. Louis had all the bad breaks in the fifth game. There were hits over third base that dropped between Thevenow, Bell and Hafey, there were reversed decisions by the umpires and there was the erratic pitching of Sherdel after a bad break when Bob O'Farrell hit him on the end of the index finger of his pitching hand. Miller Huggins, manager of the Yankees, showed the first real sentiment he has displayed in the series when he was riding back on the train. •Hew about my old army game," Huggins asked a group of newspapermen. ‘You fellows rip me when I play for a few runs but We had to p-j.v haul for one winning run yesterday and w,. got it. didn't we?" Hugpins did play "the old army game" in the tenth inning and he gave a new tecord crowd of 39.552 spectators a thrill when he made Babe Ruth and Bob Meii.se! go to the bad in a critical inning by bunting But it was the sacrifice game, press ing for one run, that won the ball game, gave the Yanks a big jump and
