Liz pL raul Ueam got us HIST WaJerlOO OH
the home grounds yesterday at the hands of
the Milwaukees. The home nine was fairly
beaten at every point The fielding of the
MilwaukeeAwas perfect, and the way they
pounded Aber's delivery must convince him
that he needs to study up his art somewhat
at odd hours. 1t would appear that they had
discovered the key to his 'curves." as on
Sunday last at White Bear they had great diff
ficulty in hitting him at ALL LOTUS and
Murphy were the only men who did not sue
coed in hitting the ball to a safe place at least
once, and Sexton, Griffin and Roberts each
mauled the ball afield for two bags. Nor
rissey, he of elephantine proportions, did the
prettiest work of anybody in the team, as
sisting five times from third and putting out
first without skip, but the balls were all
sent to him with unerring aim. In the ninth
inning Roberts was run into by Griffin from
center field, and injured somewhat in the
leg, having to retire for the remainder Of the
game. Although knocked down, he held
the fly from Hengle's bat. The st. Paul
team made a half dozen errors, but the
defeat did not lay in these. They
contributed, to be sure, to the size0of the
score Of Milwaukee, but they did not serious
ly affect it. The result may be written down
as defeat for Aber. The column in the
Milwaukee score sheet marked base hits is
ample justification for this remark O'Brien
bore away the honors for the home team. In
the fourth inning he knocked the ball against
the left field fence, and with a bit more elbow
grease it would have gone into the great world
outside. In the ninth inning he made
another hit and got around as far as third,
but nobody below him ever touched the ball
down to safe place, and so he was left. 1t
has always been the misfortune of the team
that two or three men at the foot of the bat
ting list have usually failed to make clean
hits, and thereby they have added much to
the weakness of the playing from the plate.
Several times in the last three weeks there
have been three men on bases when this
fatal spot was reached, and we could men
ton more games than one that these sawyers
of the air have lost.
The st. Paul team got only five men on
bases during the game. In the third inning
Aber was given a base on balls, and went to
second on Fosters line hit to left
field, but they both died on Foley's fly
to second. In the fourth inning O'Bren
drove the ball against the left field fence for
two bases, and stole third, but he wasn't
backed up by the batters who followed him.
In the sixth Hengle pounded two baser to
left field, but O'Brien's fly to the same neigh
borhood stopped him there. O'Brien hit for
a hoe ctp = J; rJ +lo
but Hunter closed the game by popping up
fly to third base. Sexton opened the game
for Milwaukee by sending the ball to short
center field, and got second
on catcher's low throw to second
Hogan gave third foul fly, and Griffin hit
to center, Sexton scoring. Morrissey drove a
grounder to short, who caught Griffin at sec
ond, who got the ball to first before Morrissey
got there. In the second inning Roberts gol
to first on tumble by third, but was left
there. In the third Sexton reached first on
a ball dropped by O'Brien. sent from short,
and went to second on Grifin's base hit to
right. Morrissey stopped them
there by going out at first
Base hits by Roberts and
Broughton and errors by right field and
catcher secured another run. In the fifth
Sexton led off with a two-base hit to left and
got home on Hogan's base to right, which
was sent to left over seconds head Foster
got the ball to third in time to catch Hogan,
who was making good time. In the sixth
two singles and double, coupled with an
overthrow from catcher, secured another run.
In the seventh Hogan hit the ball into left
field, and earned his run ON Grifiin's two
Dagger to right, and he scored on Morrissey's
baser to left Morrissey got out trying to
steal second, Lotus struck out, Straub hit to
center for base, and Roberts got out at first,
assisted by short. In their eighth and last
inning Broughton sent up fly to first, as
sisted by short and Sexton at first, Murphy
went out at first assisted by pitcher. Fol-
