The Senators Win in Philadelphia-
Other Games.
THE GOOD FoRTuNE OF THE WASHINGTON TEAM
HOW TIE GAME WAS woN-BosroN TAKES A
STRONGER HOLD ON FIRST PLAcE-NoTEs OF
THE DIAMOND.
The Senators felded well yesterday, waited
for bad balls to send them to bases and batted
at the right time, thus winning the game easily
from Philadelphia by the score OF to 2. The
batteries were Haddock and DAILY and Day and
Schriver. Day is from the Cape May club and
his appearance in the box yesterday was an ex-
pertinent, but q dismal failure. He was re-
markably wild. sending ten men to first on
balls. When he could get his drop curve any
where near the plate it was fatal, and he sue
ceeded in striking out eleven men, but there
were others who succeeded in batting him just
when men were waiting to go home. Hadaock
was hit harder than Day, but he gave only half
as many bases on balls and kept the batting Of
| the Phillies pretty well scattered. The field
work OF Washington was nearly perfect, Sam
| Wise making the only two errors of the game,
tumble and bad throw. The Phillies did
not put up remarkable game and their OPP
ponents profited by every error.
HOW THE GAME WAS WON.
The Philadelphia Press says of the game:
'Day is not entirely responsible for the loss Of
the game, for had the big Philadelphia bats
men hit the ball more frequently and at the
proper time Philadelphia might still have won
the game. Day struck out eleven of the visitors,
big Sam Wise doing the act three times in sue
cession-Beecher and Carney being the only
Nashingtonians who did not strike out
Notwithstanding the fact that the home team
cAnfQst N raotin fhov, hat
OF the day previous, for the reason that the
heiding was sharper and the score so close that
none OF the spectators gave up the game until
the seventh inning, for two or three good hits
them to the front. Hoy's catch of Thompson's
ny ball in the fifth and Mulvey's one-handed
stop OF Haddock's grounder in the eighth were
the two brilliant features
DETAILED ACCOUNT.
The Inquirer tells the story Of the runs in
this way:
''The Phillies retired in order in the first in
ming, and the Senators at once jumped off with
the lead by making two runs. After Wise had
tanned out Hoy was given a base on balls.
Wilmot flied to Thompson. Then Hoy stole
second, moved up to third on Beecher's single
to right, and scored on Arthur Twins single to
the same spot. John Irwin was sent to first on
balls and Beecher scored on q passed ball.
Arthur Irwin overrun third base on the same
Senators made another run in the third. After
Hoy had struck out Wilmot aimed at wild
pitch on his third strike and easily got to first
He stole second and scored on Myers wild
throw OF Beechers grounder. The Phillies did
not score until the fifth. Then two runs came
IN. Farrar was given gift of a base and went
to second on a passed ball. Day struck out
Wood placed single in left and Delehanty fol-
lowed with one in right, sending Farrar home
and Wood to third. Wood scored on Myers
fly to hoy. Then Sam Thompson sent the ball
skyward toward left center 1t looked good
for three bases, but Hoy sighted it and nabbed
1t on the full run, making very pretty catch.
Another tally was secured by the Senators in
their half OF the tifth. Hoy hit safely to center
and Wilmot was given base on balls. Beecher
sacrificed himself to Myers and the runners
moved up base. Then Schriver made a poor
throw to Myers to catch Wilmot off second and
Hoy scored. Arthur Irwin was the third out
on strikes. The Senators made one more run
In the seventh. Wise trotted to first on balls,
got to third on sacrifices by Hoy and Wiimot
and scored on Beecher's two-base drive to the
flag pole. Arthur Irwin ended the inning with
grounder to Myers. Three of the Phillies
reached first base in the eighth. but they could
not score. Thompson made two bases on a
wild throw by Wise, but was put out by fool
ishly running into John Twins arms after he
had stopped grounder from Mulvey's bat.
Mulvey stole second. Schriver was sent to
first on balls: Then Mulvey stole third.
Fogarty ruined chances for a run by striking
out, and Farrar flied to Beecher The Senators
made their last run in the eighth. John Irwin
and DAILY were sent to first on balls. Carney
and Haddock both sacrificed themselves ON
grounders to Mulvey, and J. Irwin scored'
Fogarty had two disagreements with Umpire
Curry that cost him $35 altogether. The last
was on account Of a called strike, Fogarty
throwing down his bat and declaring that he
would not play any more. This cost him S25,
and Farrar finally coaxed him back
The Press makes these remarks about the
game:
Wise was vIsibly affected by his failure to
connect with the ball. It is certainly very sell
dom that he strikes out three times in game
Arthur Irwin atoned for his slow work of
Monday by remarkable stop of screeching
hit on which he assisted In a quick double
play.
John Irwin played a decidedly improved
game.
There are very few fly balls which get away
from Hoy.
The Phillies made three hits in succession in
the second inning, but they could not get
man across the plate.
