Splendid Game of Baseball at the Park
Yesterday-Memphis Wins
by a Score
OF 2 to O-An Enthusiastic Meeting OF
the 'Cycle Club-General
Sporting Notes.

The threatening stats of the weather yes
terday prevented a large attendance to see
one of the finest games of the season.
There, were, nevertheless, about 800 peo-
pie present. 1t was really a game between
the batteries, the locals leading in the
fielding and the visitors in the batting.
The locals won the game in the first inning
on a base on balls, a hit by pitcher, and a
wild pitch and error of Harbridge, the
first baseman of the visiting nine. Crowell
and Kilroy pitched for all they were worth,
Kilroy doing the best, as the score shows.
The same teams play to-day, when there
will be some more hot work. The locals
will try to get three straights to pay for the
three lost to the Augustus on the last series.
