Oceanics, 20: IIonoluIus. 10.


When thirty runs are made IL a game
OF baseball it is a pretty sure sign of
heavy batting and loose fielding. This
was the case on Saturday on the Makiki
grounds, in the match between the
Oceanic and Honolulu clubs. The at
tendance of spectators was very large,
but many of them left before the game
concluded. Markham, the Honolulu's
pitcher, was knocked out of position in
the third innings, the Oceanics scoring
eight runs. Davidson pitched the re-
mainder OF the game. f. Baldwin did
some fine fielding at second base for the
Oceanics The decisions of Mr.. +. q.
Boardman, as umpire, were entirely sat
isfactory. The Honolulus went first to
bat, and were whitewashed Two runs
were scored on the first innings by the
Oceanics. Scott took his base on balls,
stole second and came home on hits by
Kinney and B. Baldwin. Kinney hit to
first, stole his second and tailed on
ThurstOn's base hit In the second in
nings for the Honolulus, Moore got his
first, stole second and came home on
passed balls. Wodehouse was put out
running to second, Dowsett on a fly and
Dat on foul, leaving the bases full. The
Oceanics added another run to their
score, by Jones hitting to first, stealing
second and coming home on f. Bald
wins three Dagger. Brown and Wall
went out on strikes and Moehonua at
second. The HOnolulus scored one in
the third inning. Markham made
base hit and took first, an overthrow by
Wall sent him to second, a passed ball
to third, the home base being reached
on balk. The Oceanics gave their OPP
ponents plenty of leather hunting in this
inning, making eight runs. 1t was a
loosely played inning on the part of the
Honolulus, and virtually decided the
game. The latter were whitewashed in
the fourth innings, while the Oceanics
made a run. Moehonua hit safely to
first, stole second, took third on passed
bali and tailed on Jones' base hit.
Brown and Wall went out on flies and
Thurston at first. Another zero for the
Honolulus in the fifth inning. For the
Oceanics, Scott hit to first, stole second
and came home on hits by Kinney and
Baldwin. Kinney took his first, an error
by Moore sent him to second, and passed
balls to the home plate. B. Baldwin hit
safely to first, stole second, took third on
a passed ball, and home on his brothers
base hit. MOehOnua reached first by
Markham's missing an easy fly, and
tailed on Baldwin's hit Jones struck
out, and Wall and Thurston flied out.
In the sixth inning, for the Honolulus,
Wilder took first on a base hit, and
tailed on passed balls and an error by
Baldwin Davidson hit to first, an error
by Kinney gave him second, and reached
the home plate on wild throw
Fisher made a base hit and took first,
stole second, coming home ON a passed
ball Dowsett was put out at second,
and Dat and Moore struck out The
Oceanics were WhiteWashed in this
inning, for the first time. In the seventh
and eighth innings the Honolulus failed
to score, while their opponents added
four more runs to their already large
score. The HonoIulus braced up in the
ninth inning, and by punching their hits,
made four runs, Dat, Whitney, Wode
house and Moore being the players who
reached the home plate. The Oceanics
being ahead, did not play their half of
the inning. The following is the score.
