Recap: Barry Bonds (.125/1/1) of the New York Giants made up for 4 strikeouts with one huge swing of the bat. He homered off Rollie Fingers to lead the Giants to a late inning comeback victory over the Philadelphia Athletics in Game Two of the World Series. The Giants moved up two games to none in the best-of-nine series. The A's took an early 2-0 lead in the third when Mickey Cochrane (.500/0/1) doubled off starter Christy Mathewson and scored on a single by Alejandro Oms (.375/0/1). Al Simmons doubled in Oms with the second run. It stayed that way until the sixth when Martin Dihigo hit one out for New York and cut the margin to 2-1. Philadelphia expanded the lead to 3-1 in the eighth when Jimmie Foxx (.125/0/0) cracked a double and scored on a single by Shigeo Nagashima (.714/0/1). Ed Plant seemed to on the way to the win, then the Giants mounted a comeback. They almost waited to late...with two down in the ninth Freddie Lindstrom (.500/0/1) doubled and then scored on a single by Al Dark (.429/0/1) to close it to 3-2. Then pinchhitter Chino Smith (1.000/0/1) ripped a triple to tie it up at 3-3 and set the stage for Bonds to win it with his walkoff homer in the next inning.
The Series will now switch to Shibe Park in Philadelphia for next three games. The two clubs will take a day off and return to action on Wednesday. Rookie Jeff Tesreau (10-3 3.51) will get the start for New York, while it will be Rube Waddell (14-13 3.19) on the mound for the Athletics.
