BASEBALL SMALLTALK.

Fuller had another Off day yesterday, and
the result was unearned runs for the Hoosers
in the second inning Shorty has had an
unusually bad week. Let us hope that 1t will
be the last.
Shock, usually so reliable, was particularly
unfortunate He took Fuller's place when
the latter was hit on the head with a pitched
ball. The first hits that came to him he had
to field IN the wet and slippery grass and he
stumbled on both. II he could have played a
deep field he would probably not have made
the fumbles.
If anything were needed to disgust the
Washington people with Glasscock's disgrace
full conduct on the ball field his derisive veil
when Fuller was hit filed every one with con-
tempt. His own associates were ashamed of
him.
The day for ''plug-uglies" in the baseball
profession is happily passing away.
As Mack went to the bat for the first time
yesterday hewas presented with a handsome sill
yer service OF seven pieces, the gift of patrons
of the game who appreciate his faithful and
earnest work forthe club.
In the summary of the Coumbia- Langley
game a typographical error gave Adams II
passed balls. From the account of the game
and the details of the score Of course the error
would be recognized as one by the printer.
Yesterdays scores: indianapolis, II, Wash
iDgton, 7; Philadelphia 4, Pittsburg. o; Balti-
more, 4, st. Louis, 3; Kansas City, z; Brook
lyn, 4.
Umpire Valentine should recognize the fact
that he cannot accurately judge balls that are
down along the foul line If he remains between
pitcher and second. Daily hit bah to left
field yesterday that struck fair by three feet
and Wilmot scored; yet the umpire decided II
foul. Better not stay behind the pitcher SC
much, Mr.. Valentine.
