THE SPORTING NEWS OF THE DAY

Manager Hecker's National League Colt:
defeated the Syracuse Stars yesterday quite
easily. Daniels pitched well. The struggle
among the pedestrians at the Central Rlnk
still continues in presence of large crowds.
The annual meeting of the Pittsburg Cricket
Club was held and officers elected.
The local colts had a sweet revenge yes
terday for what the Syracuse Stars cid to
them on Monday, and admirers of the Ma
tional League will feel more proud OF the
youngsters this morning. There were
between 800 and 400 people in Recrea-
ton Park to see the game, and In some
respects it was an enjoyable one. The
weather was warm, but the diamond
was very muddy acco unit Of the rain
which fell in the morning. The muddy dia'
mond accounted for some Of the bad infeld
work of the visitors.
The youngsters won the game on its merits
and outplayed the Stars at every point The
work done by the former was indeed, great
improvement on that of Monday. La Rogue
showed up to much better advantage, and hoas
made one or two very brilliant pick ups.
A LITTLE FLURRIED.
place, but experience will improve him on this
point He promises to be good player.
Youngman really did first class, and it is not
TOO much to say that he did work yesterday
lust as brilliantly as the best second baseman
who has been in the city. Routcliffe and Hemp
also did very well. The former made great
running catch, and Hemp accomplished bril-
liant stroke by fielding the ball in great style
and by remarkable throw to the plate, retir-
ing man who was trying to score from second
on very long single hit. Altogether, the
youngsters did well.
Daniels pitched great game, and he is more
of favorite than ever. Had he remained in the
box it is not too much TO say that the visitors
would have only secured two runs He pitched
five innings and Gray relieved him. Gray was
awfully nervous and showed it by his wildness.
He gave three men their bases Oh balls and hit
two with pitched ball. Added to this were
four single hits, and the whole combined sent
in seven runs. Gray. undoubtedly. was in too
great hurry and had he taken a little more
time he would have steadied himself much
sooner than be did. When he did get down to
work the Stars couldn't touch him.
A MODERATE DISPLAY.
The visitors put up only moderate game.
Two of their regular infelders were absent.
and DeaIy and Ely flied their places. Lyons,
the pitcher was in left field and did wreJched
work However the Stars pitchers were
marks for the local young men. Morrison
pitched two innings and then Ramsey became
the victim. The game, excepting Gray's mis-
takes in the sixth inning, was well played, in
deed, by the local team. Umpire Zacharias
did well.
The home players went first to bat and after
Sunday had been retired, Hemp got his base on
balls. Hines sacrifice saw Hemp to second

head sent in the run. In the third inning Sun
day led off with a single to center field and
singles by Hines and Miller sent him home. In
thefourth inning RoutclIffe led off and got his
base on balls. He was put out at second, how
ever on Houngmans grounder to Batun.
Daniels got his base ON balls and Sunday made
a successful bunt though it might not have
been intended for bunt. Youngman scored
on the hit and Daniels got to third Hemp
knocked grounder to Dealy. who fumhled it,
and Daniels scored.
SOME MORE SCORING.

base on balls. A single by La Rogue sent him
to second and he stole third, La Rogue getting
to second. Routclitfe struck out and then
Youngman banged out single to left, sending
in Miller and La Rogue. Youngman went to
second on the throw in and Youngman scored
on Roats Single In the sixth inning Hemp
led off with a two-bagger and got to third on a
wild pitch. Hines was retired at first and
Hemp scored on Miller's single to cente- field.
La Rogue sent out double TO left field and
Miller stopped at third. Routcliffe went out
on foul fly to Briggs. but Youngman again
made a timely hit sending home Miller and
La Rogue. The seventh inning brought five
more runs but only was earned. The
others were secured on fielding errors, wild
pitch and a base on balls. The last run was
made by Hines getting base on balls, stealing
second and third and Lyons mutf of La RoQue's
fly.
The visitors didn't earn a run, but the fatal
base on balls had most to do with their run
getting. As stated above, Gray made nervous
display in the sixth inning and seven runs were
scored. which brought the visitors within one
of tieing the score. This caused the opponents
of the National League to cheer Justify. Fol-
Inning s the fnll score.
