GENERAL BASEBALL NEWS OF THE DAY

The local club won q most exciting game
from the Hoosiers yesterday. Eleven runs
were made in the ninth inning. Morris
was knocked out of the box, and so was
Boyle. New York won two games from the
Senators, and Boston was beaten. There
were general other exciting contests.
Just as the shades of evening were top
ping the Allegheny hills yesterday Henri
Boyle, the statuesque pitcher of the
Hoosiers, was emphatically given to under
stand that the Pittsburg baseball aggrega-
ton are the people. Henri was knocked
into smithereens amid one OF the widest
scenes of excitsment ever given on the local
ball ground. Before the local sluggers were
through with him he was battered clean out
of the box on to third base and all his at
titudes were pounded out of shape. Poor
Henrii He had a very bitter taste OF the
thorny side of lite, and had to be relieved by
that happy and agriculturallooking parsonage,
John Glasscock.
oh, what game it was and its windup will
find a prominent place among the baseball
saw it will all undoubtedly have husky voices
to-day. Just at the last moment when defeat
seemed to be encircling the home players with
a fiendish delight the home fellows

after slumLer and scattered disaster among
the ranks of the Hoosiers even more terrif-
cally than did Samson with the ass jawbone.
No less than ii runs were thumped out in the
ninth inning. When the inning started the
score stood to in favor of the men from
Hoosierdom. Many disguised patrons of the
local team left the grounds, fully believing that
the visitors were Pittsburg's Jonahs without
any doubt about it. They had battered the
life out of Morris in the early part of the game
and certainly they deemed themselves
something more than ordinary people.
Before the inning was over, however, they
were taught lesson as to the uncertainties of
human affairs and they won't forget that les
son. either. Boyle began the inning IN the box,
and he finished it looking after third base,
while Manager Glasscock tried his hand al
pitching and Denny looked after Glasscock's
usual position. What an iuning it wasi During
its progress men, women and children and the
dignified representatives of the press were
Jumping and yelling as if world full of laugh
ing gas was operating. Several times Umpire
Lynch had to call a halt until the pandemonium
was Quieted down. But
THE FUN WENT ON
and continued until IL men had been at bat
and the score run up to II runs. During the
inning there were three two-base' hits made,
one triple, one home run. four singles, three
bases on balls. one man hit by a pitched ball
and two men got to first on fumbles-
The game was one of the slugging kind from
the start. The visitors. however, did their
slugging in the early part of the game, and the
home talent did theirs near the end. Morris
started in to pitch for the local team. but the
fourth inning settled him. He was at that
stage touched up for i've hits. including two
bagger and a triple. Manager HanlOn then
put Sowders in. and only two more hits were
made. Morris seemed to pitch with his usual
cunning, but the Hoosiers had his measure,
and no matter where he put the ball they
banged it out. Sowders was a great change,
Judgment. Boyle pitched in his best form un-
til that extraordinary inning, when he COM
pleiely collapsed. Mlller's home run settled
him, and doubtless at that stage Henri's inner
most wish would be: II would that / were
dead" The fielding or both sides was good.
In the seventh inning Sowders hit Bassett ter
riically on the arm, and the second baseman
retired in the eighth, Andrews taking his place
and Sommers going to center field.
RUN GETTING STARTED.
The visitors were first 10 score. After Seery
had been struck out Andrews made a single
and stole second. Glasscock's single hit to
right sent Andrews home. The manager was
nabbed stealing second, and Denny was put
out at first. In the third inning the visitors
began to touch Morris up in earnest After
Boyle was out singles by Seery and Glasscock,
a stolen base and Denny's two-bagger earned
two more runs.
Then the fourth inning came. Buckley led
of and reached first on wild throw by White.
MsGeachy knocked out a double, and Bassett
sent out a triple to right. These hits. together

sent in four more runs. A change of pitchers
took place at this stage, and the visitors scored
no more.
In the second inning White led off for the
home players and raped out a good single to
center. Miller few out to Seery and Dunlap
made fine two-bagge- TO right. White scored
Hanlon's single. In the sixth inning Carroll
led of with three-bagger and scored on
Fields long fly to Andrews.
THAT WONDERFUL INNING.
Nothing more ofnote was done until the ninth
inning. which Dunlap opened. As he walked to
the plate Big Jake Beckley shouted something
about wanting seven runs. The request evil
IDENTIFY had some effect for Dunlap knocked out
a single to middle field. Sowders followed with
another to right Dunlap going to third. Han
Ion whacked out another to left and Dunlap
scored. Then the yelling started and the noise
became as deafening as the warwhoops of ten
tribes of Indians when Rowe got to first on a

under the influence of his seven run idea
when he walked up TO the plate. He
looked at the three men ON bases, then at Boyle
and spat on his well-developed hands. With

bagger, sending in the three runs that tied the
score. oh! the noise that followed. Poor
Glasscock looked as if he had taken an over

THE LITTLE MIGHTY MIDGET.
Miller was next on the programme and he
capped the climax by humping the ball clean
over the left field fence. The Indian war
whoops were again resounding over the Butler
county hills. This was too much for poor
Henri Boyle and he looked languidly at Mr..
Glasscock. The latter showed his sympathy
by taking the ball from Boyle and going into
the pox himself. Dunlap came to bat the
second time and Glasscock gave him his base
on balls Sowders made his second hit of the
inning. Hanlon was the first victim as Hines
nabbed his grounder. Sowders was of second
