Herman and Gore, two pretty double plays
by the New Yorks and the general sharp

bases kept the spectators in the best of
humor. Daniels had some very close decis-
ions to make and did fairly well, though he
was twice hooted at by the crowd. WEIGH
twirled for New York. 'fKid" Madden did
good work, the local club being unable to
get hit until the fifth inning. Madden re-
ceived better support than WEIGH, but the
New Yorks managed to make their hits
count. Boston scored the first run in the
third on Madden's hit and Kelly's two-bag
ger, which was within an inch of being foul.

on o'Rourks's hot ons to Madden, which the
latter could not handle, Wise's poor throw
to first base of the same, which advanced
the runner to second, a sacrifice and Whit
ney's pretty single between third and short.

ney's sacrifice and Welch's single. Ewing
followed with a single to center on which
Welch wired to second, but was thrown out
by Johnston at the home plate. Nash tied
the score in the same inning on a safe hit,
Wise's base on balls and Wards poor throw to
Conner in attempting to donble up with
Wise and Hornnng on which Mash scored.

and Richardson's fly to the outfsld. Morrill,
for Boston also led off with . two-bagger and

| fee hit which advanced both runners q base,

| short, Hornung's poor throw to catch WEIGH
