| MENT OF HIS MARRIAGE.
There was happy family of baseball cranks, OF
fans,' as the enthusiasts now called, at the
| Polo Grounds yesterday. The crowd, 1854 I'm num-
Der, went up TO welcome home the champions from
their not versuccessul tour Of the West and East
The Giants got hearty reception, in spite Of their
recent poor record and the players seemed fully to
appreciate the kindly feeling shown them.
The game, thought not a perfectly played one. was
repletc with interesting features and was hugely
enjoyed by the onlookers. The result uncertain

battle. The Giants did not show much vim In their
work early in the game, but closed
the battle in burst Of brilliant bat
ting which electrified the onlookers and sent
everybody home happy except the Quaker City play
ers. Keefe did good work except In the fourth and
sixth innings and did not do very badly even then

The game opened with the Giants at the bat Ward
sent ne-drive at Hallman which tho little Quaker
caught cleverly. Herman could not get ball TO
suit him, and went TO first called balls. He stole
to second and as schriver threw wildly to catch him,
the Heetfooted Giant kept on to third. Ewing was
put out on Japanese catch' by schriver. Common
was equal to the occasion, however, and brought

and short Conner got to second but forced out
at third by Richardson, and the Giants closed their
part of the inning with one run and the lead The
visiting team got two on bases in their part of
the inning but neither scored.
Neither side scored in the second inning Keefe
gave unique exhibition with the Philadeiphans at
the bat sehrver, the first batsman, sent to first
on called balls, but caught attempting to steal
second. Fogarty and Farrar struck out on six
pitched balls. Kcefe was loudly applauded. In the
third inning the Giants scored and in
creased their lead. After Ward had been put out,
Herman made Of the hardest drives ever seen on
the grounds. The ball went a line toward right
field with terrific speed and struck the clubhouse at
the extreme corner of the grounds. 1t bounded back
however and Herman managed to make but three
bases on the hit Ewing tried to sacrifice, and Muvey
made clever pickup, but threw wildly to first, and
Ewing safe, while Herman scored. In the fourth
inning NewYor might have scored but for the clumsy
basernning of Richardson and ORourko. Two hits,
two bases called balls and passed ball occurred
yet the Giants did not get a man past third base.
NewsbOys ran through the grand stand, yelling:
Full account Of Tim Keefe's marlage!" in this
inning. This seemed to annoy the pitcher, for in
the fourth inning he did not pitch so WELL and the
visiting players made two and tied the score
Myers, the first batsman, struck by
a pitched ball, and went to FIRST. Thomp
sons sacrifice advanced Myers to second Mulvey
sent slow grounder toward short. Ward would
ordinarily have got the ball easily but It struck some
obstruction and bounded out of his reach. 1t was a
fortunate bound for Philadelphia, for Schrver hit
safely to left field for two bases. bringing home
Myers. FOgarty hit safely to left field and Mulvey
scored. Schriver attempted to score on the hit, but
retired at the plate clever throw by
O'Rourke.
The fifth inning quickly passed over, but in
tie sixth the visiting men got two more and
took the lead. Thompson was put out, but Mulvey
hit safely to centre field schriver then sent to
first base called balls. Fogarty forced Schriver
out second but the play allowed Mulvey to reach
third Fogarty then stole second and scored with
Mulvey on a hit over Richardson head by Farrar
The Giants scored one run In the elghth inning
and with a display of little energy might have
the game. Herman got to first called balls Ewing
hit 10 short and doupe play ought to have resulted
but Myers did not cover second and both runners
we're safe while the crowd howled. Conner went
out on little pop-up fly TO Myers. Richardson hit
safely filling the bases. ORourke then walked TO the
plate with majestic stride and struck out after three
amaeurish slashes through the air dismal groa1 l

toward left field and Tiernan scored. Ewing might
also have scored but for a collision with Mulvey,
