Pittsburg dispatch. [volume] (Pittsburg [Pa.]) 1880-1923, 1890-06-26

1t was q very poor exhibition OF baseball
that was given out as the genuine article at
Exposition Park yesterday. A crowd of
2,45O people gathered to greet the New
Workers, and the roasting they gave the
players of both sides showed how much they
appreciated their attempts to play ball.
Many of these attempts were dead failures.
Maui was especially off his work
while in the box, and after being
put in the field shirked his work at
different times Not only was his play very
yellow but he showed bad disposition in
the field.
So far as the game was concerned it was a
slugging match all through, and was of
course interesting. In the seventh inning
when the local men made five runs it looked
like their game, but Long John Ewing was
replaced with 0'Day, and he wasn't SO easy.
WHEN THEY BEGAN.
The New Workers were presented with
several runs in the first inning. Gore got
base on balls, went 10 second on a wild
pitch, to third on O'Rourke's sacrifice and
scored on Keuhne's error. Connor also
got base on balls, went to second on the
sacrifice, TO third on Keuhne's error and was
forced out on Vaughn's base on balls. Rich
ardson went to first on Keuhne's tumble of
his grounder, was forced TO second and third
on balls given johnson and Vaughn and
scored on Whitney's single. Shannon and
Ewing struck out, leaving two men on bases.
Manager Hanlon decided that Maui had
had enough, so he was sent to left field and
Morris put in the box. Fields was put on
second and Robinson on the bench. Gore
opened up for home run hit to left, which
ri IN fa1d Hnnnor
given a base on balls, went to second on
O'Rourke's single, to third on Beckley's er-
ror and scored on Johnson's three-bagger.
O'Rourke got first on hit, second on Beck
ley,s error and scored on the triple. Beck
ley's error gave Richardson first, and he
scored on Johnson's three-base hit In the
third, Gore got a double and scored on a
wild pitch and Connor's sacrifice fly to Han
Ion. O'Rourke went out at first, and Rich
ardson hit to left for home run. johnson

CHAunOD new 10 DeckleY. III lne Sl4In new
York made their last run. Whitney got
single, went to third on Ewing's double,
and scored on Connor's sacrifice.
Pittsburg did not start the forlorn hope
until the third inning, when two runs were
made. CorcorAn got double, went to third
on passed ball, and scored on Hanlon's
hit Morris got base on balls, second on
a wild PITCH third on hit, and scored on
Visner's sacrifice. In the fifth O'Rourke's
muff gave Coreoran first and second, and he
scored on Maul's single. Two more were
added in the sixth. Hurley got a hit, and
went to third on Beckley's double. Both
scored on Kuehne's single.
LITTLE EXCITEMENT.
Excitement ran high in the seventh when
Pittsburg scored five runs, and it looked
like they might pull out of the hole. Han
Ion got a single and scored on Visner's
triple. Hurley got base on balls. Beck
ley got hit scoring Visner and sending
Hurley to second. Fields two-bagger sent |
both men home, and he scored on Morris
single and Kuehne's sacrifice.
Another run was made in the eighth. |
Hurley got to first on a missed third strike,
to second on Beckley's hit, third on Whit |
ney's error and scored on Fields sacrifice |
fly TO johnson. The Giants did not breathe |
easy until the last man was out and they
had the game pocketed. The score follows: |
