JEFFERSON lily, Mo-, July o. Speclal =
The rattiest game OF ball ever played in
Central Missouri was witnessed here tins
afternoon, the Jefferson City and Sedaha
clubs being the contestants. When the
word "ratty," is used the writer means 10
give Sedalia the benefit of it in the full
sense of the word, and the score of twenty
TO eight in favor of Jefferson City, tells the
story.
The Sedalia boys arrived here about =
o'clock this morning and stopped at the
Monroe house. Had they retired and put
themselves in readiness for the afternoon
game the result, would probably have been
different Instead of this, however, some
Of the boys took in the town, nor did they
let up until nearly noon, and hence the
miserable score at o'clock this afternoon.
There was not TO exceed 500 people ON the
ball grounds, which are the poorest in this
section of the state, being billy
and the grass being uncut in the Outheld,
there was fair attendance Of ladies, but
nothing like Sedalia could furnish any
week day. The Sedalia club presented
the same nine as on Saturday last, with
the exception of George Edmonson, who
was substituted for Frank Kennedy, while
Connors pitched, instead OF Hulland.
Jefferson City also made bun one change,
placing Sid Linley on second, instead Of
Aubuchop. DR.. Hunlock, of Hughesville,
was agreed upon as umpire, although Ed.
Miller Of the home nine gave timely notice
that any rank decision on the part of the
Doctor would result In his being bounced
and a new umpire substituted. At 2:30
p. m.
GAME WAS CALLED,
with Jefferson City at bat, and when the
third man was retired, one run was placed
to their credit. Sedslia was not so FORUM
ate, being whitewashed.
In the second innings JEFF City
added another run While Sedalia was
again whitewashed in the third inning by
>edalia's miserable playing. The Capital
CITY bows scored six runs while Sedalis
was for the third time whitewashed.
AT this stage Hulland came in from
third and relieved Corners, who up 20
this time had three hits made of OF his
pitching. The first ball pitched by Hull
land was knocked In the outheld, and the
second batter sent a high fly TO the same
quarters. To be brief, Jefferson City
made six runs on the first inning that
Hulland pitched, and the numerous white
washes of the Sedalia boys caused them TO
look blue In the fifth and sixth innings,
Jefferson City scored run IN each, making
a total of sixteen 10 nothing for Sedalia. |
In the seventh inning the Capitol City's |
were whitewashed, while Sedalia made four
runs. the fortunate men being COnners, Smith |
the game wasbummy In the extreme. Jefier- |
IL C
1alia succeeded in scoring like number, |
making totals 20 for Jefferson City and s
Tor Sedalia.
The error column for Sedalia runs up
into the figures. and the scorers, Harry |
Smith and Harry Eales, become so dis
yusted that it is likely. they overlooked |
several. The Jefferson City boys were
REMEMBERED By THEIR MANY FRIENDS
With many floral offerings, while Sedalia's
pets received nothing but Rats" Rats"
The umpiring of Hunlock was in remark
lble contrast 10 that of Koucher, Of
Jefferson City, who ofhciated at Sedalia on
last. The doctor evidently realized
hat he was away from home, and
or lis reason nearly all close decisions
we're given in favor of the Jefferson City
,oys. To SUN up il was a rotten game on
Sedalias part from beginning to end, near
y all the players making egregious errors.
IN the other hand Jeffers on City played
much stronger game than on Saturday
asst Ed Miller's delivery was the best
cen in this section and far surpassed eth
II that of Hulland or Conner, he was ably
Imported by the entire nine and II was evil
emily JefIereon City's day to win. The
'edalians present are humilliated tonight,
nd when asked where they hail from the
eply invariably is "Knobnoster." 1t is
to night, that the third game
I'LL be played at Upton at some time in
he near future.
