n CLOSE GAME.

The Nationals Win by u Score OF Two TO One
Tho game of ball at the National grounds
yesterday afternoon between the Baltimore
and National clubs was decided contrast TO
the exhibition on the day previous, be-
tween the Nationals aud Philadelphia Ath-
letics, and q game far moro enjoyable TO wit
ness. AS the record stands the two clubs that
played yesterday are the strongest in the
National association, aud either will have TO
work hard TO become victor.
The match was the finest contest played
here this season, aud continued 80 close
throughout that few errors would throw 1t
either way. So evenly were the teams
matched and so steady tho playing
that up TO the seventh innings
neither side had been able to score. In this
innings. however, tho Baltimores, by hits OF
Richmond, Brouthcrs and Deasley, earned one
run and took tho lead. In the next, Lynch
obtained his base on called balls, went to
second on McCellan's put-out on first, and
came home on Gerhardt's two-base hit to right
field, and the latter followed to the home plate
on Mansell's drive to the right field but would
have been out had Deasley held the ball we'll
felded by Clapp. In the last innings neither
side obtained run, although both sides got
men TO the third base.
1t would be difficult to discriminate between
the players where all did so well, but in bat
ting, Mansel, for the Nationals, took the lead, ,
going four times to tho bat and making four
hits.
The umpire was feature of tho game, dis
pleasing both sides, and varying very much
from that OF the umpires on the grand stand
The Baltimores were particularly complaining
as to the decisions, lut rs the umpire was OF
their own selection they swallowed the medi-
cine, dstsstcfu as it proved. The same clubs
play here again this afternoon at $3.50 o'clock.
If the lovers OF this sport desire to see good
ball playing they should attend or not grum.
bic because they remained ut home and missed
witnessing an interesting and fine contest.
Appended is the score:
