The Philadelphia Times says: "After Wise
had hit for a single in the first inning not q
man found the ball until the ninth, when
Beecher and J. Irwin hit for singles.
The game was marked by very loose field
ing on the Washington's part and many Of the
hits should have been accepted by the outfeld
lnterspersed among these glaring errors how
ever, were many bright plays. Wilmot, after
he had got warmed to the game. did some
| beautiful fielding and Casey was once the suf-
ferer, he being robbed Of good two-base hit
by brilliant running catch. Schrive r also
felt the power Of the fielder when he hit for
| what looked like at least three bases, but il
| was nicely caught These plays were heartily
applauded, as wero also stops by A. Irwin and
distinguish himself and he made great run
/, ming catch of high fly in short right field.
Person was hit hard, but his support at
times was miserable, which no doubt dscour-
aged him. His felders, while making difficult
plays, made some very bad ones on easy
chances. Especially was this true in the fifth
| inning, when they piled up five errors, allow
| ing Ave unearned runs to be scored. Fogarty
and Mulvey led in batting, the former with
four singles and the latter with single, double
| and home run. Thompson also got two hits
| for total OF three bases and Wood hit for two
| singles. Some Of these hits were Of the very
| lucky order.
"Curry did not favor the visitors any in max
ing base decisions and twice he called runners
| out when they looked very safe. A. Irwin. in
| the second, undoubtedly beat the ball to FIRST
and Carney, in the fifth, was also there when
the ball arrived. They were close decisions
however, and should have been given to the
runner.
Washington made 8 hits and errors and
| Philadelphia 16 hits and errors.
