to Defeat.
At San Francisco yesterday the Bay CITY
Club, assisted by the umpire defeated the
Sacramentos by score of 10 to u. Young
may have tried to be fair in his decision.
but If he did he was quite unfortunate;
and even the audience (which was of course
in sympathy with the home club gave
vent to their feelings several times and
Kissed the umpire repeatedly. 1t was the
opinion of everyone of the press repre-
sentanves present that Sacramento won the
game fairly, but for the treatment they re-
ceived from the referee He tried to please
everyone, aud the result was that he didn't
please anyone, excepting, perhaps, the nine
men in the San Francisco club, and they
Will undoubtedly never brag over the VIC
tory.
In the first inning Sylvester reached first
base on balls and stole second. Veach was
out on Incell's assist to first and McSorley
came to the bat. He drove the ball for GER
tainly two bases into left field about three
feet inside of the bag. Everyone saw the
hit, and Sylvester trotted around to home.
but to the general surprise, the umpire
yelled Foul !" for which decision he was
subjected to great deal of guying. Nc
Sorley afterwards got his ball and Sylvester
scored, but there would have been at least
another run had the decision been made
fair.
Again in the eighth inning, when the
Sacramentos were batting the ball lively
and had the bases full, Doyle, to the ap-
pearance OF all, pushed Burke of third
base, touched him with the ball, and the
umpire again shouted tout" He got it
from the audience again. If Burke had
been allowed his base hit by Veach right
afterwards would have made the score in
that inning three runs instead of two.
The game on a whole was intensely
interesting and everyone held their
seats until Veach, the last batter, was out.
At the end of the eighth inning the score
stood 10 to in favor of the home club. but
the latter piled up two more runs in their
part of the ninth. Even though it was
their last chance, and their opponents were
five ahead, the Sacramentos started in the
inning with a vim and came pretty near
changing the result, "but yet so far"
Jevne made first on Incell's letting the
ball roll between his legs. Mclaughlin
hit to Donahue, who threw about ten feet
over the FIRST baseman's head and he was
safe on his base, Jevne going to third
Both scored on Newbert's clean drive to
center. The latter in turn scored on
0'Day's hit and there were yet no outs, and
Sacramento stock was booming. Burke
flew out to Donahue and Sylvester on a
long drive TO left, which Levy gathered in
Veach got life on being hit by pitched
ball, but McSorley was out at first on
Doyles assist.
Eight hits were made off Blu rke, two Of
which could hardly be called hits, being
slow balls to the infield. He did good
work in the box, striking out five men to
incelrs one The San Francisco people
voted him a success. At one time he
used bad Judgment in throwing the ball 10
first instead OF home, letting in run.
lneell pitched well, although he was
gagged for ten hits, yet not even two
Dagger was made during the whole game.
There were some magnificent catches by
the outfielders which had good deal to do
with it, however.
Perrier and Jevne worked hard IN the
field but got five errors between them for
their pains.
Perrier and Sylvester both made magnifi-
cent running catches, and received an oya-
ton. Veach didn't get chance to catch a
fly ball, but he raped out two singles, and
died on the bases.
McSorley and 0'Day got five hits be-
tween each other. The formers score,
however. is marred by Two errors, one ex-
cusable.
Newbert played at short with one error.
Mclaughlin was a little of, having four
passed balls, some of them disastrous, and
using bad judgment at one time in throw
ing to second base when a runner was on
third. The result was a run to the San
Francisco score. They all have "off days.
however.
Krehmeyer played at first without an
error, and though he drove the ball far
into the field several times, there was al
WAYS somebody under it.
As whole the Bay club did not play
good ball. piling up ten errors, yet they
won.
