Contrary TO expectation tho rain OF satnr'
day last ceased In time TO allow the match
game Of ball to take place between the Ma
tionals Of this city and the Kcystoncs Of
Philadelphia. The ground was quite wet
and slippery, interfering somewhat with the
game. But few persons were present on ac-
count OF the rain, but those who were on
the ground enjoyed the sight Of one OF the
most interesting games witnessed this season
Williams appeared again "a pitcher for the
Nationals, who presented also one or two
substitutes instead OF the regular players.
The Keystoncs had also made change In
their nine, Mcnamara playing centre and
Gwynn right field. The Nationals went to
bat first. and succeeded In scoring three runs
on the innings, while the Philadclphians re.
tired for round U. In the next two innings
the Kcystoncs placed \ runs 10 their credit
by good battling, aided by errors 10 the field,
and disposed Of the Nationals for half that
number. This gave them the lead by one
run. In the fourth bout, however, the Ma
tiouals again went to the front, adding two
runs to their score, and treating their oppo.
nents TO "whitewash," Fox, "Elliott,'
Shelley and Forker handling the bat In
style. Score-Nationals 0, Kcystoncs =.
In the hfth Inning, each side scored a sin.
gle run. Elliott and Gwynn being the fortu
nate ones, the latter making q rounder on o
splendid hit 10 centre field.
Score 10 TO 0 In favor Of the Nationals.
II was now getting DARK, and every move
mcnt OF the players was watched with thu
greatest interest. The Nationals, by tn,
good batting Of Williams, Fox, Shelley, ant
and Birdsali, added three runs TO their score
which brought their totals up TO 10, the
feature Of the inning being tho fine doubl,
play by Flowers, Woods and McKcnna, re
firing Birdsall and Elliott at second aud frs
respectively. Woods and Albertson wer,
both retired on ny-balls, the former b,
Forker and the latter by Elliott. llonr,
pokcd the ball 10 Williams, and everybody
thought the game over. Billy throw Wild!
TO first, aud a life was thus given. McNa
mara followed with a good hit, sending
Henry home, and getting In himself on will,
throws. Mckenna ended the Inning, how
ever, by sending one up for Shelley, and tn
ball was hold nicely.
Score 10 to II.
