TUE InE WASHINGTON CLUB-LAT8 MOTIFS fkOA
THE DIAMOND FIELD.
The Senators administered o crushing defea,
to the champions yesterday by the score Of Ia
l and made folks in Gotham think that the TO-
boggan slide has been reached by the Giants.
The tail-enders won because they felded beau
tifully, played with q snap and go that con.
trasted strongly with the sleepy. play Of New
Herald says:
pitched for New York and tried all the tricks
he knew, but they didn't work. The Senators
waited till the ball cut the heart Of the plate
and then they smashed it. And when it didn't
cut the heart Of the plate Umpire Quinn sent
them to first on balls. So it was blue day for
Tim. Still, that wasn't the only reason New
was hidden in the anatomy Of young man
named Pearson. What funny name! Quite
as funny as his pitch. This young man
had everything going-'drops,' shoots,
raises, 'ins' and 'outs'-and he tried them
one after the other ON the champions with
great success How beautifully he did scatter
the few hits New York made! And the young
man was SO elated over his success that he de-
clared he would 'strike" his club at once for Q
''raise." In the very first inning this young
uliiu SuOWcu uOW uelplebb the CuaIuplOub Wore
before him. There were 1,806 spectators on
the ground and they had to rub their eyes again
and again before they felt sure that it was
Wizard Keefe who was pitching"
The Sun remarks: 'As for the Washingtons,
they played just as well as they knew how.
Clarke did very clever work at third, and Will
mot came in for his share Of the glory by max
ing one-hand catch Of fly from Richardson's
bat in the fourth inning that cut off a three
base hit. The only run by the homo team was
scored in in tho, the eighth inning. Ewing
second base and beat the ball out wild
pitch sent him around to third and he scored
on Connors sacrifice grounder to Carney.
The visitors began scoring right at the start.
Hoy got to first on balls, Ward fumbled Will
Sam Wise stepped up and raped out q long
line hit to center field, which Gore waited for
until it got over his head. It resulted in o two
base hit and enabled Hoy and Wilmot to
score. Irwin struck out. Clarke hit for one
base to right field and went to second on the
throw in, while Daily and Wise scored. Clarke
had no trouble in stealing third while the New
York players were kicking over decision at
the plate. and he easily scored on q wild pitch.
Hoy, in the second inning, got base on balls,
and Wilmot put the ball under the right field
seats for home run, adding more runs to the
visitors score. In the fourth inning hit to
right by Person and a two-base hit by Hoy to
right center, which was felded in badly by
Gore, put Ferson over the plate and Hoy on
third, from which point the latter scored on a
long fly by Wilmot to Slattery. This was a
sufficient lead for the visitors to win"
After a column wall the Herald winds up
thus: There, now, is the story of the cham
pions' crushing defeat. But for that wild pitch
in the eighth how much sadder it would have
BEEN"
Washington made hits and / error and
New York hits and errors.
Carney made two singles, Hoy and Wise a
two-bagger each, Wilmot home run, and
Wise, Clarke and Person each single.
