The Standards stinsb Defeat
the Jennings. ~
A Game Characterized by Poor Fielding and
Terrific Batting-The Jennings Out
played 6enerally-Seore, "a to2.

In the fifth inning of yesterdays game,
the Jennings got little batting streak, and
scored two runs, earning one of them. The
other eight innings were blanks. But
the Standard climbed up on Evans
and Stevens, and, aided by serieso muffs
fumbles and wild throws, piled up fourteen
runs. Up to the sixth inning, no one
could have desired finer game, but after
that time the Standard had everything its
own way,
The Jennings put in Evans, new impor-
tation, 10 pitch. He is good player, but
no difficulty was found in FASTING his balls
all over the field. In the sixth inning,
Snyder's swell frame gave out and Evans
took his place, with Stevens in the pitchers
box. After that inning, in which eight
scores were checked off by the Standards,
the game was won, and the remainder was
very tame. Robt. McSichol umpired very
satisfactorily TO the teams and to the eight
hundred persons present.
