Omaha daily bee., 1889-07-25
Omaha d. Denver O.

Yesterday was ladies' day at the BAH park,
and the beautiful, autum-like weather, with
its nicely tempered winds and mellow sun
shine, brought out the fair ones in swarnls.
v Every reserved seat was occupied, while
the east wing Of the grand stand fairly shone
with sparkling eyes, beaming faces and gaiy
colored apparel.
And then, besides all this, there was fine
attendance Of gentlemen, the main stand
beng comfortably filed and the bleachers a
black mass of vociferous enthusiasts.
Il was IN truth that sort Of a crowd that
makes the boys feel good and maybe they
didn't play ball.
Il was without doubt the prettiest game Of
the season-sharp, short and decisive; brist-
ling with brilliant plays and clever hitting,
without an error for Solee's pets, nor run
and but one little lonely hit for the visitors.
Kid Nichols, Omaha's gentlemanly young
twirler. was too much for the rugged noun
taineers, and the only on o among them who
was sufficiently puiss ant-and puissant is an
awful good word-to get the ball safely
without the diamond was Tredway. Every
single member OF the White Sox played in
elegant form, not the shadow OF a blunder
being committed and where all were SO per-
feet 1t would be invidious to individualize.
It was not until the second inning that any
bCOTiuB WAS uOu6, anu uneu alLer CTOORS, WuO
was as full Of music as Adam F0repaugh' 8
calhope, had gone out out on high fly to
Tredway, Walsh came along with his custo
mary hit. Andrews Immediately drove him
in on q robust two-sacSer.
Nagle, too, made hit, but was caught
mapping al. first, and with an abashed glance
toward the corner where the two mascots
sat, he skunk back to the bench.
80 Canavan ended the inning.
1t was an egg, hard boiled, for tho Den
In the fifth Count Strauss led off with a
Nhtstlng three sacker, coming home mo-
sent later on apassed ball, blocked by the
umpire,
-- And the umpire, by the way, is the best,
pext to Sandy McDermott, who ever umpired
. here Quick and correct In his decisions, he
permits no unnecessary parleying, and whoops
the game up from start to finish. HIS decis-
ion declaring Dolan out for interfering with
Cleveland when the latter was in the act of
catching fly ball.. was greeted by a storm of
applause.
1t was tantalizing decision for Denver,
Tor 1t spoiled their only hope Of a rum but it
fairly tickled Omaha to death.
Lots of fun in game of ball, isn't
there's
In the fifth the White Sox made brace Of
tallles.
After Nagle had been tossed out at first,
Canavan took his base on four yellow ones,
Z and the Kid followed with u cracking single.
A passed ball let Tommy in and put Nick on
Y third, whence he scored a moment later on
Cleveland's out from Dolan to Rowe.
And the Mountaineers continued to swal-
low their egg -fips right along with mo-
?. notony that was becoming weariseme. In
e fact, they only reached first three times and
second once, and that is the nearest the rub
Der they could get.
So near and yet so far.
= In both the eighth and ninth the local
team scored twice, but as there was nothing
particularly thrilling connected with these
achievements, detailed description is
omitted.
The score follows:
