WON IN THE ELEVENTH.
A Hard Fought Game Which Min
neapoIis Again Won.


neapoIis Again Won.
In the afternoon the audience kept
streaming into Athletic park until every
available seat and spot of ground was
occupied by moving mass of humanity,
and after 1000 tickets had been taken
in at the gate, the doors were closed,
and several hundred were forced to re-
main outside These who managed to
get in saw the first extra inning game
ever played on the new Minneapolis
ground, and eleven innings of excite
ment almost painful III its intensity.
Each player seemed to be on his mettle,
and brilliant stops and circus catches OF
long flies were the rule. For the home
team, Miller. 0'Day. Hengie and Min
nehan distinguished themselves III the
field, the two double plays being quick
pieces of work. Black carried off the
hOnOrS for the Indians, making two
jump catches of high flies that looked
good for two sacks. Both pitchers were
hit rather freely, Myers and Hudson
leading with the stick for the
locals, and Strauss for the visitors.
Duke pitched one inning. but his
arm was not in shape, and he gave way
to Hudson. Minneapolis started to
score in the first, earning three runs OH
a succession of four singles and a
double. Sioux City made two III the
first, and forged one ahead III the third
with the assistance of Strauss home
run, after he had made himself excess
siyely diSagreeable to MIR Blogg, by dis
putting double play decision In the
preceding inning, from which he Suf-
fered fine that was richly deserved.

ing two runs in the fourth, and the In
dams again brought things TO business
basis by tieing the score again III their
half The next was a blank, but Min
neapelis again got its eye on the ball In
the sixth and batted out three lalnS.
Fer three innings Minneapolis was
BANKED, although the bases were filled
i'll the eighth Meantime Sioux City
gradually came to the front. and tied
the score in the ninth by hard work and
an error by Carroll, who muffed low
ball after a hard run. In the tenth
Myers led off with a home run that
brought a shower of silver from the
grand stand as the sturdy catcher
trotted across the plate The next man
went out in order, and Sioux City made
one run, which again tied the score,
on two doubles after two men were out.
Matters again looked gloomy. Hudson
was suffering from a hurt from a hard
hit ball which struck him III the foot,
and when Foster came TO bat in the
eleventh the predictions were that Min
neapoIis would lose. The first ball
pitched he sent over toward the car
tracks, but foul. Again he picked out
a good one, he swung hard, and the
ball sailed out over the brick building
on Second avenue. There was another
shower of silver as he came In. Singles
by Minnehan and RYn, aud Hengfe's
sacrifice scored another. In the latter
half, Cline hit high foul fly into the
crowd and Carroll went after it. There
was scatter and mixture of crowd
and ball player, but he came out with
the ball above his head. The crowd
yelled, the Indians kicked and threat
ened to give up playing on the decision,
the crowd invaded the grounds, and
pandemoniuns Teigned. After time
matters were smeothed over, and the
next two men went cut, ending game
that was chiefly remarkable for the
kicking of the visitors. The score fol-
lows:
