older organizations, and at the close of the
year there was quite demand for his ser
vices, but the Detroit club managed TO get
him. He played in number of exhibition
games in the fall of 1886 with the Detroit
team, and did exceedingly well. 1t was then
predicted that he would certainly make a
very brilliant player. He played in twenty
championship games during 1887 with the
Detroit club, nineteen of them at third base
and one in the out field.
In the spring of 1888 Manager Barnie, of
the Baltimore club, purchased Shindle's re-
lease from the Detroit club and placed him
on third base, where he played remarkably
well, and did even better than his most san
guine friends dared to hope for. He led all
the third basemen of the American associa-
ton for 1883, with a fielding average of .919.
In lS5 championship games he accepted COG
chances. Shindle's batting record for 1888
In the 1856 championship games, was .216. He
is playing in brilliant form this season, both
in the field and at the bat he covers con-
siderable ground, and tries for every ball hit
within his reach, and is also very swift and
accurate thrower. That he is one of the best
professional third basemen is shown by thu
high rank he has held each season in the official
fielding averages. He is also a clever base
runner, being very feet footed.
SCORES AND SCORES OF SCORES.
Perhaps no two persons ever keep a base
ball score alike and it is interesting to note
some of the different cards kept at game.
The same general system applies to all, but
the variations are infinite. There is given
herewith six examples of scoring at game
between New York aFd Pittsburg. The
fourth inning was particularly lively, says
The New York Sun, three base hits, two
bases on balls and two runs being the feat
ures. The difference between the methods
Of individuals could not be more striking.
No. shows the runs by cross marks and tbs
outs by numerals. 1t is very simple, and al
lows the scorer to see at a glance how the
score stands, but the information conveyed
is limited.
The very simplest, as shown in No. Q, has
only a single mark for each run and small
circles for the outs Women take great sat
isfaction in being able to make this score. The
boyiSh enthusiast tries to keep more COM

SCORES BY THE cRANKs.

prehensive score by taking in base hits and
bases on balls. No. is a specimen of his
memorandum. He always has sharply
pointed lead pencil, and he can, by neat and
small marks, have clean and useful score
The strictly private or very exclusive score
card is unsatisfactory often to the maker and
always to the overlooker. You can see an
example of it in No. f. For the time being
it may be sufficient to prevent repetition of
the frequent inquiry, LET me see your score
card, please?" by the careless scorer after
visits to the bar, but by few observations
its key may be obtained. What earthly rea-
son the scorer had for using A. NJ. and Il. in
scoring the outs of O'Rourke, Ewing and
Ward in that particular inning is known only
by the maker of the score and the maker Of the
scorer. Almost any other score card on the
stand would give the key to the characters,
but the underlying principles that actuated
the use of them are mysterious. The excit-
able scorer often gets mixed, especially if he
tries to record more than runs and outs See
what hieroglyphics there are on No. s. His
card is always dirty and crumpled, and his
errors outnumber those on the field The
comprehensive score is readily understood by
the average spectator, and was explained
with pleasure by the maker. No is an il
lustration Of it. Beginning with the first
man at the bat in the inning referred to the
score gives O'Rourke 0, with small num-
eral close by 10 indicate the first out Then
Whitney is credited with base hit by dot
in the upper left hand corner of the square or
first base. If it had been two base hit it
would have been indicated by dot in tine
upper right hand corner or second base; if
three base hit, by dot in the lower left
hand corner, and if home run by a dot or
small H in the lower right hand corner
If he had stolen the second before Crane
advanced him by base hit the feat would
have been indicated by in the right hand
corner, or second base, but the advances by
Crane and Gore, who made base hit are not
indicated except by leaving blank the other
cornersof the square. The runs are indicated
by r, the larger the better, unless the team
is in batting streak, anda player goes to bat
more than once in an inning Herman took
first base on balls, and the fact is indicated by
a small B in the upper left hand corner or
first base. Ewing was the second out, and
Conner took his base on balls. Ward tried to
bring in the men ON the bases, but he popped
up fly that was easily caught The various
plays are easily distinguished in this score,
and the method is not too complicated for
general use. 1t is wiser to not attempt to be
extremely comprehensive by recording the
errors, wild pitches, assists and other plays.

afraid of collisions fcw runners attempt to
steal third base against the Athletics, and it
Is never attempted unless the pitcher gives
them big start. With Lyons to block them,
and such lightning throwers as Robinson and
Cross to fire the ball over, it is almost impos-
sible for any base runner to steal third base
against the Athletics. This naturally puts
the opposing team at a great disadvantage in
q close game
For heavy man Lyons is also a very good
base runner, as may be inferred from the fact
that thus far this season he has stolen no less
than twenty-three bases. Indeed, Lyons at
present ranks sixth among the Athletics in
base running, there being nine men on the
team who have stolen fewer bases than he.
Lyons first saw the light of day in Cincin-
matt, twenty-four years ago. He started his
baseball career with the Crescents, one of the
leading amateur clubs of that city, in 1888.
He next joined the Shamrocks the strongest
amateur club in the Ohio metropolis and it
was while with this club that his work at
tracted the attention of minor league mana
gers, and the Atlanta club, Of the Southern
league, made bid for and secured his SER
vices. He played great ball for this club,
and easily ranked as the leading third base
4ud4i Va luc AOOuNhcln ACtAeOCy SASu5h SuSA
players as Werrick and Bradley were also in
that association that year. He also led the
Southern league in batting. In the spring Of
1886 he played with the Providence reserves,
and finished the season with the Atlantis. Ii
the fall of 1885 the Athletics secured him, and
he has been with them ever since.
WILLIAM sHNDLE.
An excellent portrait of William Shindle,
the clever third basemen of the Baltimore
club, is given in a recent issue of The Clipper
Shindle, The Clipper says, was born Dec. 5,
1858, at Gloucester City, N. J., and first play
ed with amateur clubs of his native place,
which is opposite Philadelphia, and is the
Sunday resort of Quaker City ball players.
his professional career began in 1885, with
the Eastern league team of Wilmington,
Del, as third baseman. The club disband-
ed after two months play, and Shindle went
to Norfolk, Va, where he finished the season
with the Eastern league team of that city,
playing third base, and of those playing in
majority of games in that position he ranked
second in the official averages at the close Of
the season.

lean association and National league clubs,
and In the fall of that year he received no
less than six offers from managers of major
league clubs The Athletics offer was the
best, or at least he considered it the most adj
vaRtageous, and as a result he decided to
60 to Philadelphia.
. Manager Sharsig considers Robinson one
Of the best finds he ever made since he has
been connected with baseball It was in
July, 1884, that Mr. and Mrs Sharsig went
on trip to the White mountains, and dur
ing their stay there the Athletic manager
went down to Massachusetts, for the purpose
of seeing the clubs in tie New England
league play. His object was to take look at
the young players of that league, and if he
saw any promising ones in the lot to nip them
before any of the other managers Of the two
big leagues came around. Robinson i'm
mediately caught his fancy, and he made up
his mind to secure him at any cost. Mr..
Sharsig had a talk with Robby after the
game, and an understanding was reached
that the latter would sign an Athletic con-
tract as soon as the New England league
season was over, and he stuck to that prom
ise, though tempted with very hattering Of
fers from other clubs.
DENNY LYONS.
''Denny" Lyons is known to fame as the
hardest hitting third baseman in the profess
sion. The Stage says of him: He is power
fully built man, feet 10 inches tall, and
weighs 215 pounds Not only does he rank
as the greatest batter among the third base
men of the country, but he travels in the
same class of hitters with Arson, O'Neil,
Brouthers, Stovey, Conner, Orr, Kelly and
Browning. In some respects he is more Of
terror to pitchers than either of the above
mentioned sluggers, for the reason that ne is
what is known as free hitter, by which is
meant that he hits high and low, in and out
balls with the same freedom, giving pitchers
no chance to work" him at all, while Arson
and Kelly are just as weak on low balls as
Stovey, O'Neil, Conner, Orr and Brouthers
are on high delivery.
Hitting the ball, however, is not Lyons
only qualification as ball player. He is a
