BASEBALL YESTERDAY.
How Washington Lost Again. Other
Games.

The Senators made too many errors Yesterday
afternoon, and dropped game, in conse-
quence, to the New York Giants. The score
| was to T. the New Workers pulling out in the
eighth inning and scoring four times with the
tally to against them. Healy and Ebright
and WEIGH and Ewing were the batteries. There
was no advantage for either side In the pitchers
box, so far as batting was concerned, but Healy
was wild, and thus enabled the Gothamites to
obtain their lead. He gave five bases on balls.
and made three wild pitches. Ebrights work
| behind the bat was shaky; he made couple of
errors, and let three balls pass him.
! On the other hand Ewings sup
| port of WeIch was almost perfect.
and this fact had strong influence on
| the result. Each team made 10 hits, while New
| York made errors and Washington 5. The
| Statesmen excelled perhaps, in long hitting.
Carney and Healy each made double. EbriSht
| three-base hit and Carney and Ebright
| home-run apiece, while O'Rourke was the only
New Yorker who could squeeze more than one
| base ont of his batting, he making three
doubles. Washington earned runs and New
/ York 2. Shoch played in left field Wilmot not
| being yet in shape. and made three singles.
carney was in right, Morrill, on first and
Sweeny on third. each of these men playing his
| position perfectly. Wise made j error in
chances, and Myers IN chances. The base
running was sharp and exciting, the men TAX
ing more chances than on the previous day.
OTHER GAMES.
Pittsburg succeeded in taking a second game
| from Cleveland yesterday afternoon by the
| score of to 4. Beattin and Sutcliffe and Con-
way and Fields were the batteries. The bat
ting was light. Conway being the only man to
break beyond a single by making tremendous
hit over the left center-field fence. Pittsburg
made hits and l error and Cleveland hits
and errors.
Philadelphia won again from Boston in the
presence of over 1000 people the score being
to 6. The result was accomplished by batting
well punched and loose field work by the visit
ors. The batteries were Madden and Kelly and
Saunders and Clements. Philadelphia made s
hits and errors and Boston hits and err
rors.
A fine game between Indianapolis and Chi
cago resulted i'll victory for the Hoosiers by
the score of to ). There was no particular
superiority of batting or fielding on either side,

BASEBALL NOTES.
1t is evident that Manager Morrill, is trying
experiments with his team while away from
home. He is playing first base himself, with
Sweeny on third, and Carney in right Two of
these men are almost indispensable Oh the
team. Morrill, and Carney, but Sweeny, while
he has played third all right. far. is GER
tainly not yet league player, although he will
doubtless turn out well.
1t is hoped that the Senators will bring at
least one game away from New York, before
they return to play Boston four games, begin
ming on Friday.
New York leads the league, with Philadel-
phia and Pittsburg second Washington, hay
ing lost all of its games. is last
1t Is said that Paul Hines is to be tried on
first base at Indianapolis and if he does not
come up to time will be released
The necessary postponement of the game be-
tween the Reporters and the Policemen from
yesterday to Thursday on account of the rain
was a sad disappointment to quite number of
people, who made the journey to the grounds
under the delusiOn that the eighteen pieces
OF humanity were going to sacrifice their good
looks and their health by scrambling around
III the soft soil of the diamond. The great bulk
of the ticket holders however, remained at
home.
NEW YORK COMMENTS.
The New York Sun says of yesterdays game:
Upright caught his first game for the Wash
ington club. Although he is fair back stop,
he goes to pieces when there are men on the
bases. 1t was owing to his weakness that the
New Yorks got the lead early in the game. He
redeemed himself. however. with a home-run
hit, when two men were on bases. and put his
club where it had a chance to pull out ahead
but his weakness reappeared before the game
was finished, and it was that which gave the
New IOrks their last lead. and finally the game"
The World says: AT two separate and dis
tinct periods in the game it looked as though
Washington would win. Ebright, the new
Washington catcher, held the game in his hands
several times and monkeyed with it as a Japan
csc juggler handles the flying knives With
Washington i'll the lead i'll the second inning
he tossed the morsel of victory to the home
team by disastrous passed ball. He then
brought his club to the front again in the sixth
inning with long home-rIn hit into the Ro-
man ruins. Once more, i'll the eighth inning.
he gave the victory to New York by muffng
O'Rourkes foul fly, and this time the cham
pions clinched the gift with four runs"
