The newly organized Elkton base ball
club played its first game on Saturday aft
ernoon last with the Delaware College club.
The visiting club WAS fresh from easy VIC
tories over clubs from Middletown and
Wilmington, and as the Elkton nine was
almost without practice, expected an easy
victory. They were chagrined to find that
the home club was made of good material.
The gar.e began at 4 80 o'clock. After five
innings had been played the college boys
refused to play longer. They claimed that
it was necessary that they should return
home on the 6 SO train. Another train
leaves at S2s but the visitors would not re-
main. No agreement having been made to
close the game before the end of nine in
nings Umpire Maxwell awarded it to the
Elkton club. The pitching of Realey for
the Ekton club was the feature of the
game. When play ceased the score was as
follows:
