IN IT AGAIN.
THE sACRAMENT0s HAVE STOPPED IN
THEIR DOWNWARD FLIGHT.
Another victory for the Leaders Yester-
day-Oakland Was Victorious
at the Bay.

The Stocktous lost yesterdays game by q
wide margin. They never were in the
contest after the first inning and added
nothing to the score during the remaining
eight times the side went to the bat. Harper
proved too clever pitcher for the batters
that opposed him, and this fact, together
with the perfect field work of the Sacra-
mento team aud their strong batting won
them the game easily. Perrott did not
appear to exert himself as much as he
usually does and in consequence allowed
hits to be punched. which proved disas.
trous to his teams chances for winning the
contest Fourteen of the Sacramentos hit
the ball fairly out of reach of the opposing
clubs fielders, and being aided materially
by few errors, they scored twelve men.
The runs were made in the first second,
third. fourth, fifth and eighth innings. In
the first Goodenough was safe at the initial
on Selna's muff of thrown hall. Roberts
knocked out home run drive against the
left field fence and two men scored. In the
second inning Stapleton waited for his base
and got it. He went to second base on
Fcgarty's error of Wilson's throw, and
came home ON another error by Fogarty
on Harper's ground hit. Harper after
wards scored on passed ball. In the
third singles by Bowman, McHale and
Stapleton and scientific hit by Godar
netted two runs In the fourth inning
Goodenough led off with three bagger,
and scored on Bowman's hit. Hoffman
knocked high one to Holiday, who mis-
Judged it, and the runner made the circuit
of the bases, Bowman also scoring. Again
in the next inning two tallies were made.
Reilz and Goodenough made hits and
scored on Roberts swift drive, which Fudg
er could not block. In the eighth tue la,t
run was made. Bowman got hit in the
back; and, of course, went to his base. He
stole second, and afterwards crossed the
plate on Hoffman's hit.
The lonely run made the visitors was
scored in the first inning. Fogarty wentto
second oase on Goodenough's muff of fly
ball, after having made long run for it,
Selna's sacrifice advanced him base, and
Stockwell's hit brought him home.
The game was not interesting, but il was
far from being poorly played contest.
There were no very rank errors, and though
Fudger OF the Stocktons was somewhat
off in the beginning of the game, he re-
deemed himself nicely by afterwards doing
some effective field work, as his score
shows.
Armstrong, the regular catcher for the
Stocktons. was struck IN the stomach by
the ball 10 the fourth inning, and it was
thought for time that he was seriously
injured. Goodenough was at the bat and
Armstrong was up behind. The batter
fouled the ball and it struck the catcher
with full force in the pit of the stomach
He wore his body protector but it had not
been filled with air and was consequently
little protection to him. After being struck
he walked off to one side and then sudden.
ly fell to the ground. The players and
some of The audience gathered round and
did what they could to relieve him. He
was carried outside the park and placed in
a wagon and was about to be driven to the
nearest doctors house, when he suddenly
revived and would not permit himselfto be
taken to town. In q few minutes he was
able TO walk and by the time the game was
over he was feeling as well as ever.
Stockwell caught the remaining six in
nings of the game and no fault could be
found with his backstop work.
The umpiring of Sweeney was satisfac-
tory to everybody and it is generally con-
ceded that he would make good successor
TO Mclaughlin who has been released by
the League.
Following is the score:
