It seems that Blondy of Lynn, Giants' third sacker, had been drawing the well-known "horse collar" from Bobby Smith of the Braves at the Wigwam yesterday, and when Bobby struck out Blondy in the sixth inning, the Lynn man's anger knew no bounds. He is here shown about to throw away his bat to add emphasis to a soul-easing expletive. Umpire Charley Rigler is turning away in horror. We regret the lack of a sound picture of Ryan when Dick Barrett fanned him in the eight inning.
