ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DIsPATcHl
BOSTON, May 14-Some idea of the pic
mic which the boys from the ''Smoky City,
had with Billy Sowders during the first
three innings of to-day's game may be
CLEANED from the fact that in that brief
period they had pounded the bean eating
twirler to the extent of g singles, with a
total of 16 bases. Leather hunting was the
chief occupation of the bean eaters, and
they had more of it to do in the third inning
than any other inning in recent years. They
ran until they were ready to drop, and still
the Pittsburgers numerically banged the DaL3
all over the field, and kept it where the hGme
players had to hustle to reach it.
The third inning in to-day's game was Sne of
he mos: remarkable as regards the batting
at has ever been witnessed TbS6 Bostons
rted in with runs on singles md errors.
SOME HEAVY sLUG3fNG.
verybody thought that ,as phenomenal
t, and the $500 spectators were as happy as
when the yisitorS went to the bat. But
batting disease was catching, and when
ager Phillips men took their position in
teld once more they had not only given the
eaters taste of their own medicine, but
had rubbed it in in the most aggravating

singles and two three-baggers. Then did
the faces of those 500 bean eating cranks be-
come so long as the poles upon which their
favorite fruit is reared, and they looked as
though the services of many physicians were
needed to save them from immediate dissolu.
tion.
The Bostons began the sport. Camel was
given first base and Sowders and Brown Sc
cured singles. CAMEL scored. johnson was
80 &1,o 1,ofl nd
ished at first. Maui seemed to be
AFRAID OF KELLY
and sent him to first on balls. Then Dig Dan
Brouthers got in his work in the shape of a
single, and Sowders and Brown crossed the
plate. Richardson followed with another
single to left field, and Kelly and Brourhers
scored, the latter having reached second on an
attempt to retire Kelly. Richardson got around
to third on the return of the ball from left
field and Nash's out at first, and scored the
sixth run for Boston on Quinn's single. CAMEL
stepped to the bat again, but was easily retired
by Dunlap and Beckley.
That was pretty good work, but it was moth
ing compared with what the Pittsburgers did
when they got the opportunity. Sunday
showed his contempt for SOwders strategy by
hiding the ball in right field for three bases
Hanlon cut out another hit from the same and
in the same place, sending Sunday across the
plate and scoring himself on Beckley's long fly
10 Johnston. Sowders became excited, and hit
Carroll with the ball; the latter was not hurt,
however, and showed it by Immediately steal
ing second. 'tFoghorn" Miller cleared his
throat and the ball landed safely in left field,
Carroll scoring. Dunlap sent the sphere sailing
nearly into the right COW pastdre, sending
Miller to third.
MADE THINGS LIVELY.
Maui continued the sport by banging the ball
over the second bag and Miller and Dunlap
scored Smith placed the ball beyond Quinn's
reach and Maui landed safely on third by
reason of Nashs muff of the ball thrown TO cut
him of. Lauer distinguished himself by
making another rambling hit to right field.
Maui was streaking for the plate when Kelly
threw the ball and bean eaters arm was so
strong that the ball went far beyond the reach
OF the players around the diamond. The result
was that Maui and Smith both scored, making
runs for Pitrsburg in that inning and total
of runs. Sunday and Hanlon closed the
inning by popping up easy hys, then the Bostons
breathed easier when they went to the bat in
the fourth inning. They tied the score on two
singles, a three-bagger and base on balls and q
sacrifice hit.
When the visitors again took up the stick
they found Radburne in front of them instead
OF SOwderE. The latter had retired in disgust.
Radburne held them down to one weak hit
during the rest of the game, and as the Bostons
fielded well they could not score again. The
bean eaters scored two runs in the sixth and
two more in the ninth by superior batting,
winning the game and securing the leadership
of the League through the defeat OF the
Plilies by the Chicagos. Score:
