season was 10 10 seen on the Olympics
grounds yesterday TO witness the second Of q
series Of matches between the Nationals and
Olympics. II will be remembered that tho
first game was won by the Nationals by q
score OF 0 TO 9. The game yesterday opened
fayorably for the Nationals, aud continued In
their favor up TO the end Of tho sixth innings,
the score standing 8 to T. Fine fielding had
been shown by both mines from the start, and
the game continued close and exciting. In
the seventh innings the Olyinpics, by good
batting, and assisted by several errors on the
part Of the Nationals, ran up a score OF Ave
runs, round cd the Nationals, anu gained the
lead for the Hrst time, which they held TO the
close.
Hicks excellcd at the bat, making two
home runs. As each club has won gRme, II
makes third necessary TO decide the series,
and ~ both mines are pretty evenly matched,
no doubt the display will DO as hno as has
been shown In the two previous once, which
has been better than any visiting club has
given ms this season.
