No Brilliant Playing Done Any
where

New YORK. May 5.-Brooklyn beat
Baltimore at Washington park to-day.
There was good attendance and the
game was exciting. Brooklyn played a
faultleSS game up to the sixth inning,
but in the eighth became totally demor-
allied. Terry pitched a wonderfully
fine game, striking out nine men. Pee
pies supported him well. O'Brien, of
Baltimore. played poorly, his throwing
to bases being so bad that the Brooklyns
stole bases with impunity. Cunning
ham pitched well. Attendance 3,729.

CINCINNATI, 16; KANSAS CITY, 6.
CINCINNATI, Ohio, May 5.-To-day's
game between the Cincinnati and
Kansas City clubs was a wretched exhi-
bltion Of ball playing, as the score will
indicate. The visitors put Hoffner in
the box, and he gave thirteen men their
bases on balls, aside from having four
wild pitches. Daniels gave him
Wretched support. Outside of the
battery work, the local men put up a
running was very creditable. Score:

ATHLETIC IA, CLEVELAND 5.
CLEVELAND, o., May 5.-Wretched
fielding lost the game for Cleveland to-
day. Sullivan'S home run was long
grOunder that was sent back from right
too slow to prevent him from making
batted fearfully, which, combined with
the errors on the part OF Cleveland, pro-
duced eight runs. Score:

ST. LOUIS Is, LOUISVILLE l.
LOUISVILLE, May 5.-St. Louis had
the Louisville nine completely at its
mercy to-day. With errorless fielding,
except bad throw by Mccarthy, st.
Louis ran bases at will in the face of
chain of errors by Louisville from be-
ginning to end. Ramsey was very wild.
but was hard to hit. Score:

CINCINNATI IN THE LEAD.
In the American association Cincin-
natl leads and Brooklyn is well up, and
the chances are that the fight of
the season will be between these
two teams. st. Louis is third,
but the club has so many
young players that it will probably
stick about where it is or go a trife
lower, as the Athletics promise to do
some tall hustling. Louisville is doing
much poorer playing than it was eX-
pected it would do, and is tied with
Cleveland for sixth place. The clubs
stand as follows:
