KANSAS CITY, June S.-Kansas City
broke three records to-day at Exposition
park. This is the first Sunday game
won, the first time the club has had an
average of 800. and the first time it has
won three straight games. The game
started off very poorly for both teams,
and the score shows that three runs
came in for each in the first inning.
There was much bad playing, but the
game was exciting after the sixth inn
ing, when Kansas City came near max
ing the score even. In the first Muir
ply was given his base on balls, stole
second, and took third on a wild
throws. Halves made a base hit and
Murphy scored. HAYES stole second
and got third on Daly's sacrifice, and
home on Burks' ground hit to left.
Burks got life on bad throw to first
to Conway and third on mutfed fly, on
which Phillips got second. BurkS tried
to get home on a passed ball. but was
caught at the plate and called out. A
kick was made by the visitors that the
backstop was too near the catcher,
and after five minutes Wran-
Cling it was allowed and Burks
was given the run. Phillips start
ed home on Burks' grounder, but
was caught at the plate, Brougton get
ting first on choice. Rourke went out.
In the second inning Halves made
beautiful double play on line fly. In
the third, after HAYES flew out, Daily
was given first on balls and was sent to
second by scratch hit and home by
Phillips double Dagger. In the fourth
Rourke made single to left; Meekln'S
triple sent him home, and Moore's sim
gle let Meekin cross the plate. This
ended the run getting for the visitors.
The Blues started out in very listless
manner, and it was the general
impression that the game would
go the way of all Sunday games
and be very tame, but the
boys began to brace up in the sixth, and
made two runs, ty ing the game in the
seventh. Then it was close playing for
the odd run, and when the ninth inning
came, with the score still tied, the
crowd fairly stood up i'll its excitement.
Elmer Smith got first on scratch hit
and second on a wild throw. Then the
ST. Paul team made a series of bad
plays, which let i'll three runs, and
hopelessly lost the game for them.

MINNEAPOLIS AVERAGES.
Good Work by the Leading West
ern Team.


In 80 of the 95 games played by Min
neapolis in the association race, the
averages. Individually and collectively.
are set of figures that will compare
more than favorably with those of any
cam in he country. Especially is this
true of the batting table. The mem
bers of the team all seem to be hitting
the ball with a degree of proficiency
that was hardly expected of them: in
fact, they win many of the games by
their superior stick work. Four of the
men have averages above 300, seven
above $50, and only one falls below the
200 mark. 1t is doubtful if there is a
team in the association can boast of such
a record-the team record being .2S2. In
the record below Foster is given an av
erage of 1000, his only error of the sea-
son having been madein the game of Sat
urday. The catchers also have brilliant
records to show for their good work,
and all are fielding splendidly. ODay,
while having number of errors, is
covering vast amount of territory. as
his record Of III assists in 80 games at
tests. His record of 81 putouts is also
large for a shortstop. The team field
ing average of 1886 and only 80 errors IN
80 games should please the clubs
