Results Of Games Played
Yesterday the Country
Round.

Johnnie Barnes youngsters had a
hard wrestle with the MillerS, and went
home three talies short of winning their
first game with Minneapolis yesterday.
There was nothing very startling in the
game at any time, and the only real
bowling that the ball cranks did was
when Tom Turner sent the ball out TO
plat outlots beyond the right field
fence in the second inning, and made
the circle of the bags at wining gait.
Errors were frequent from start to fin
lsh, but we're evenly divided, seven
black marks showing up for each
team. There was one double play
the last inning. Pierce reached first on
Rellly's error. Minnehan came to bat,
and sent an easy one to Pickett at short,
who gObbled it, and caught Pierce at
second. Werrick hustled the ball oveI
. to Hawes in time to stop Minnehan, and
the Minneapolis boys took the field.
Byrne. one of Manager Morton's ex.
periments, did very we'll in the box for
six innings. and held the Sanity sluga
gers down to two runs, and gave only
two bases on balls; after that he
BEGAN TO GET TIRED,
and the men in the outfield had to talzg
more exercise.
At the close of the sixth the score for
Minneapolis was eleven, and only three
chips had been stacked up for ST. Paul.
When Minneapolis went into the field
for their half of the'siXth. Capt. Hengle
put Dugdale in Minnehan'S place be-
hind the bat. but results from the change
were not noticeable.
In the lead that had been gained by
Minneapolis in the fifth inning was cut
down by one i'll the sixth. Hawes scor-
ing for st. Paul and DAILY, Hanrahan
and Hengie going out, and leaving
Miller on first. The next inning be-
longed to st. Paul from the start.
Pierce dropped fly into CarrolrS
hands, Dugdale sent a grounder to first,
West was struck by the ball and took
first, where Byrne left him by popping
the ball up i'll the air for TuckeIman.
The gentlemen with
THE JOLIET JACKETS
then came to bat, and they did bat, too.
Mr.. Byrne seemed tritle weary, and
let Iuckerman, Murphy and Pickett
have singles, while .Cal Tredway
pounded the ball for two sacks, and
brought Pickett in from second. st.
PaufS sons had four runs that inn-
ing, and found another in the eighth,
besides shutting out the Flour City ladl
dies. In the ninth Turner, DAILY and
Hanrahan went out as the clock ticks,
and Pickett went to bat for st. Paul.
Byrne gave him first on balls, and re-
peated the process with TredWay. LETT
ting Pickett steal second meanwhile,
Carroll sent out to first, and retired.
while Pickett went to third. Reilly
communicated with the second base-
man, but the ball got back to first in
time to stop him, and Pickett scored.
Werrick stirred UP Reddy Hanrahan
with hot liner, and was thrown out at
first, closing the game.
There was no VprU had nlau dnriTo O.
the game and none that were remark
ably good, except for Days running
catch of Reilly's long fly in the second
and similar exhibition by Carroll, who
made phenomenal catch of a star dis,
turber that Pierce had intended for the
left field fence in the ninth. Hawes
was struck by thrown ball in the lat
ter part of the first inning and quite
badly hurt, but played through the
game.
1t has always been a proud day for
Minneapolis when st. Paul was van
quished, and yesterday everybody
wanted to bet that the home team would
stand above the other Twin City aggre-
cation at the close of the season. Con-
sidering that Pierce has not played be-
fore this season, and that Byrne was
pitching his first 'S9 game, yesterdays
game and the result means much to
those who love good base ball, and Min
neapolis will be in the race this season
if it doesn't win the pennant.
The score:
