inning by batting the ball safely when there was
man stationed on each OF the three bags and It
seemed likely that those three men would stay
there. Two runs came In. Then encouraged by
the fact that Indianapolis did not score in their
nail, the senators added three more runs TO their
credit In the second after two men were out. Yes
actualy after two men were out. II was this way:
Hoy, who leads the batting list now made a single
