Stockton battery and Incell and

head followed with hit to the right,
Sweeney scoring. Whitehead scored
on passed ball. The visitors secured
two runs in the first, Ebright and
Buckley scoring on Bentle's tumble
and Gagus' three bagger to left.
O'Day opened second with a three
bagger to left, and was called out
for not touching first in making the
circuit. The large crowd hissed
and groaned at Umpire Foreman's
decision and called for change.
Foreman appealed to the manage
ment for protection. The confusion
lasted some ten minutes and the
game was resumed. Foreman's de-
cisions afterwards were very unsatis-
factory, both teams being dissatisfied.
Stockwell entered protest on
O'Day's decision. No runs were
made again until the fifth inning,
when Selma reached the first on an
error of Hanley's, stcle second and
third, and scored on passed ball.
The Stocxtons gained another run in
the seventh, O'Day finding Incell for
a good hit to left, and scoring one on
SeIna's two-baggers of the Haverleys,
did good work in their seventh inning,
getting in three runs, and leading the
home club by one. The Stocktons
tied the score in the pinth inning on
Selna's run, and the Haverleys
gained none on their ninth time
at the bat. The Stocktons were white
wasi ed in the tenth, and the Haver-
lys came in. Hanley struck to short
and was thrown out at the first.
Gagus followed, and Powers raped
out a two-bagger past the third. Levy
struck to the left and Powers made a
winning run. The score was to 6.

baseball contest was witnessed at the
League grounds, Haight street, this

the bat and Notwithstanding the heavy
work Of Hurley succeeded in scoring
one run. Again the Greenhoods scored
three more in the sixth inning and
three more in the ninth decisive in
