SOX REMAIN IN FIGHT BY BRILLIANT FINISH.
With the score 4 to 0 against them and elimination as world’s championship contenders staring them in the face the Chicago., White Sox rallied Tuesday, tied the count and emerged the victors in a brilliant tenth inning finish, when Weaver doubled to center, was sent to third on Jackson’s bunt and scored when Gandil singled. Dick Kerr went the route for the Chicagoans, but was lucky ’to escape, as the Red batsmen hit him hard. Dutch Ruether was knocked from the mound in the sixth inning when the Sox counted three. Ring relieved him and went well until the tenth. The victory gives the Gleasons an outiiTde"cliance of coming through, but their chances arq. slim, as they must win three more games in succession. The probable batteries for the seventh game, which is being played in Cincinnati today, are Cicotte and Schalk for Chicago and Sallee and Rariden for Cincinnati.
