SACRAMENTO SEES THE PENNANI
IN THE DISTANCE.
The Capital City Club Playing Win
ming Ball These Days
Yesterdays Game.

| AT Snowflake park yesterday afternoon
Sacramento lowered the leaders of the Cali.
| fornia League peg and gained her fourth
successive victory, winning by score of
seven to four. The game was good one,
and the crowd one of the largest that has
ever been at the park. The diamond
looked as if canvased. and was as smooth
and level as could be wished for The day
was somewhat sultry and consequently not
comfortable one either for the players or
the spectators.
No lucky playing won the game for Sac
ramento, but their good steady work in the
field and at the bat proved too much for
the visitors. The latter were outplayed at
all points, though they did some clever
work.
Krehmyer and Goodenough did the ash
WELDING for the home club, each hitting
safely three times. The former PLAYED a
good game at the initial, but an error (the
muffing of a grounder) slipped into the
score. Fifteen put-outs at first is pretty
fair playing, however.
Sylvester picked out one of Concannons
curves in the first inning and was safe on
VI.
McSorley played a beautiful game at
third. He took charge of seven ground
ers that came to him, throwing
the runners ont at the initial.
He also assisted in a quick double
play, and stopped ball knocked over
third base, which would certainly have
meant two-bagger had it passed. O'Day
and Newbert both guarded their ground in
faultless manner, but were weak at the bat.
Roberts made his first appearance before
Sacramento audience this year. Some
how in the first of the game he couldn't
find the ball at all, and struck out twice.
However, IN the ninth inning he made
Perrier chase into the paddock for the ball,
and gained third base on his hit.
Burke and Roxburg proved too much of
battery for the visitors, and kept them
guessing considerably. The latter caught
good game, but his batting was unlucky.
All of his hits were hardones to the out
field, but Perrier or Levy would always
gather them in.
Concanon, the pitcher brought by San
Francisco, proved to be pie" for his OPP
ponents, and he was taken out of the box
after the third inning and Farrell substi-
tuted. The latter was exceedingly wild,
giving five of the Sacramentos bases on
balls in two innings. Otherwise he pitched
a fair game.
Shea sized Burke for home-run in the
eighth inning, but out of the one chance
he got he made an error. Levy had an
other off-day, and to the surprise Of every
one present missed an easy fly. A 'jugglen
gave him another error. Perrier and
Stockwell did nothing remarkable, either
in the batting or fielding line.
Hanley and Donohue took charge of some
hot grounders in the infeld, and Powers
played the initial as foxy" as ever.
SWEET caught another fine game, and as
usual proved to have weakness for catch
ing high fouls. His error was given in a
low throw to first. His ankle was consid-
erably swollen, being sprained in last Satur-
days game.
Noticeable features of the game were the
four double plays made. all of which called
for pretty quick work. and the players
| were equal to the occasion. Following is
the score:
