BASE BALL-Cineinnati IS. Olympic -O'ym pie
IictorioEa-Yesterday afternoon the White
Lot was thronged with people to with IS the
game between the Cincinnati and Olympic
clubs. There was considerable excitement
previous to the game and Olympic stock was
rather at a discount. The game commenced
At 3 O'Clock, the Olympics winning the toss
and sending their opponents to the bat. Dur
ing hrst three innings the Olympics made nine
runs, the Cincinnati being without score At
the close Of the fifth inning the game was vir-
tually decided, the score standing IL to in IA
vor OF the Olympics, but the Cincinnati played
an up hill game manfully but unsuccessfu'ly,
as the ninth inning closed Olympics, p; Gin
cinnati, 9. The Cincinnati boys played we'll
in the field, but could not get the hang of
Cope's pitching, some Of their best patters
striking out. Gould, however, managed TO
pelt one of them way down to centre field aud
made clean home run, the only one of day.
As tar as the playing Of the Olympic is con-
cerned distinction would be invidious. They
all played well, in fact could not have done
better, but "MIley'' why did you drop
that beauty in the left From the way
Leech managed the LIST base, it looked as il he
intended to enforce the suuatter sovereignty
doctrine in that quarter. Mr.. Fitzimmons, OF
the Enterprise Club of Baltimore, acted as UNI
pire, and mis- decisions were impartial, though
at times almost inaudible. The game lasted ,
hours and IS minutes and the following is the
score:
