Yesterday was very disagreeable day
for ball game, and what was more, the
result was also exceedingly disagreeable to
the weekday crowd that assent led q,
Snowflake Park. A chilling wind blew
from the southwest, and sitting in the
large, open grand stand was not at all
pleasant. The San Franchises and Sacra.
mentos were the opposing clubs, and the
contest was one-sided and rather uninter.

i've runs, the score being to 1. If it were
not for two mere accidents favorable to the
home club, the result would have been S

on third base and Goodenough on the
initial. The ball was thrown to second to

It was mpffed, and Roberts scored.
No runs are in the score for the San
Franciscos in the first inning, although two
men crossed the plate. There were two
outs, when Hanley got first on a hit.
Ebright followed with q single, and Speer
came 10 the bat. The scorer called out
that he was batting out of turn, but he was
not heard, and it was but few seconds
afterward when he drove a beautiful hit TO
left field. Hanley and Ebright scored, but
Stapleton, the Sacramento Captain, was in
formed of the irregularity in batting, and
brought the matter TO the umpire's atten-
ton. Sheridan recognized that Speer had
batted out OF turn. and called the side out
and no runs scored. The visitors took the
decision with goOd grace, and retired to

the second inning four in the third and
one in the fifth, making an even half-dozen.
In the number of hits made Harper got
the better OF the San Franchises. Only six
were made off him while the Sacramentos
hit Young safely seven times. The latter,
however, pitched winning ball, and the
hits made OF him were we'll scattered. He
received the best of support both IN the in

nlflcent work in left. On the other hand,
Harper was very poorly supported, espe-
cially by Daily, who did wretched work at
short. Bowman was also wild in throw

the hackstop work during the remainder

Notwithstanding the fact that the Sacra-

liant about his pitching. He was wild, yes,
very wild, and should have had better con-
troll of the ball. He kept Bowman and
McHale guessing where be was going to
throw, and probably was not very sure on
that point himself.
The feature of the game was by all odds
a one-handed catch made by DAILY. He
had been making error after error. when
Young whacked out cannon-ball liner
over tue shortstop's head. Daily jumped
high II the air for the ball and grabbed it
with one hand, and the audience fairly

was very neat, and Reitz's guarding of the
center bag was treat to witness Every
one OF his plays was accurate and quick,
and he is without the least possible doubt
the best infelder in the California League.
