BASE BALL.-A large crowd witnessed the
Jane between the Alexandrias and the
"Our Boys" of Baltimore, at Alexandra
Park, yesterday afternoon, and saw the
home team win game from the Maryland
ers BY score of II to 5. The game was an
interesting one from the start. The visi-
tors were retired for the first three innings
without q run, while the home team by
rood hits from Beach, McAuley and Cox
had piled a total of 8 runs in the same num-
Der of innings. The visitors managed to
score in the 4th inning and in the 5th.
In the 9th inning by good hitting they
managed to fill all the bases with no hands
out, when what seemed a hit for three bases
was struck by Erek, but an excellent stop
by Swain prevented the scoring of more
than two runs. The home team played a
steady game throughout. Underwood
pitched in fine form and was ably supported
by Beach. Underwood's hit to the fence
for two bases was the feature of the game.
In batting, Beach, McAuley, Underwood,
Cox, Shaw and Slater, excelled for their
respective mines. Appended is the score:
