The Wheeling team after having had
two days rest will commence playing
ball again to-day. They will play with
Mansfield, and as the luck that has been
dead against the team apparently chang
ed last Sunday, a victory is expected to-
day. There are some enthusiasts who
claim to believe that Wheeling will win
all OF the six games she has TO play be-
fore coming home.
Joshua Rine's livery boys will play
the Carter & Morrow livery boys at the
Wheeling base ball grounds this after
noon, commencing at 3 o'clock.
Bailey, who was one Of Wheeling's
catchers last season and who went from
here into the Southern League, has
been signed by Mansfield toplay behind
the bat.
jackson has released Flynn, left
fielder; Sterling, pitcher, and Popki,
player, and will not try to get n ball un-
less sure, while the others were not con-
sidered strong enough.
In Mondays game at Mansfield with
Canton, Bausewine, CantOn's pet pitch
er, acted like big baby, by sitting down
in tho diamond several times when Can.
ton players made errors, and was fined
81 by Simmons for impudence.
The Kalamazoos commenced n series
OF four exhibition games ut Bradford,
Pa, yesterday afternoon. The initial
game resulted MS follows: Kazoo, IA;
Bradford, 5. Batteries, shearer and
Thompson; 0'Brien and Daley.
The game on the State Fair Grounds
between the Garden and Arlington mines
resulted in victory for the latter by a
score OF 10 to 0. B. l. L. Turner, the
well known colored coacher, was hit in
the jaw with bail. He was not hurt
much. Had it hit him in the stomach
he would probably have coached no
more.
Day, second baseman, and "Kid"
Madigan, pitcher, were released by Kala-
mazoo yesterday. The release OF the
former created great surprise Mt Kalama-
ZOO and unfavorable comment was freely
expressed. A special from there says
that Days excellent work has made him
very popular, and that hundreds are
signing petition for his retention. 1t
is supposed that Day has been knocked
out by Childs, the ex-phillie, who was
ousted from second in that team by
Delahanty.
The Scranton, Pa, correspondent OF
the Sporting Life pays this high compli-
ment to u young Wheeling player, Jesse
Burket: Burket is wonderful pitcher,
and is acknowledged by all the oppos-
ing teams to be the best, without excep-
ton, in the Central League. He has
good speed, great command OF the ball,
and all the curves. He is a magnificent
fielder in his position, and bids fair to
rank as one ofthe ''phenoms" oflSSS. This
fulsome praise is not the excited judg-
ment of an elated enthusiast, but comes
from seeing and studying his work all
the season, and | am happy to do the
boy justice.
