made and more men left on bases. Yester-
day the total number of hits made by both
teams was six, equally divided between the
two, and the total number of men left on
bases was six, four for Bay City and two for
st. Paul. In spite of the fact that Bay
City is far towards the front in the
struggle for the championship, the nine pre-
scented yesterday is in no essential respects
stronger than that put in the field by
st. Paul, and, though victory perched upon
the banners of the visitors, the home team
made brilliant effort for the glory of tri-
umph. 1t was simply one of those cases in
which the winner was smiled upon by for
tune. The umpire had nothing to do with
it. Mr.. Jennings made several close decis-
ions, but, if any one was favored, it was st.
Paul. He made better impression upon
the audience than did either keenan, or Dun
levy, and he attempts, at least, to perform
his work with the utmost fairness. The
spectators yesterday were inclined to fldi-
cule him somewhat on his calling of strikes,
but it should be rememb ered that the UNI
pire is in a much better position to judge a
pitchers delivery than any one in the stands.
Tilley, the new left-ielder, made his debut on
the home grounds, and we are impelled to
say without hesitation that he is the best man
in that position that the team has had. In
the seventh inning he took line ball from
the bat of Bignell, and took
high fly from Foutz earlier in the game. In
the eighth inning he hit the ball into right
field for base. He gives promise of i'm
provement upon the old state Of things all
around. Foster was effective in his delivery,
but his two wild pitches in the third inning
let in a run. Right away after this he gave
man a base on balls, but Immediately
Steaded down and pitched well the rest of
the game. Cancels shoulder is still very
lame from the foul tip received in Mime
apolis Monday, and Graves took his place
behind the bat The latter did his work sur
prisngly well, retiring eight men and hay
ing but one passed ball His greatest weak
ness is in throwing to second, in which he is
often erratic. The one remarkable feature
Of the game was the number of Bay City
men retired on foul tips and flies to the
field, twenty-four men welding the willow
and seventeen OF them going to the wall in
the manner indicated.
Play opened with st. Paul at the bat. Foley

the ball TO center for base and stole second,
and Morrison helped him to earn his run
with two-hascr to center. Howard popped
up u fy to right and Foutz struck out. The
ninth proved the great inning of the glme.
Werrick drove the ball twenty feet over
thirds head, and left came after
Mt with the velocity of
locomotive and when he Strengthened up he
had the sphere, but there was considerable
dirt on his fingers and the
umpire decided the runner safe.
Foley pounded the ball on bound to second,
and Werrck's only duty was to try to make
second, but he seemed to be bent on sacri-
hcing all his relations rather than himself,
and tried To 60 back to first. Second threw
Che ball to first, who was off his base, and
Foley reached first. First threw the ball to
second, but it was not stopped, and went out
into center field Then Foley ran down
from first and tried to push Werrick to
second, but he was frautically trying to get
back TO first, and was SO dazed that he was
easily thrown out man with little more
GOODNESS Of disposition would have made his
way To third. Foster went out from pitcher
10 first, Foley going to second, and Hengle
ended the game by tanning the atmosphere.
