sACRAMENT0's STAR BALL PLAYERS
CONTINUE TO WIN.
The Oakland Aggregation Defeated in
One Of the Best Games Played
This Season.

The Sacramento people are being treated
to the best exhibitions of ball-playing that
are being pat up in the State. Yesterdays
game was rather from start TO finish,
and the home nine proving to be the best
stayers, won the victory by three points,
the score standing to 3. The Oakland
team came up determined to win, if they
had to put in their best stock to do it, but
even with Carsey, their star twirler, the
| visitors could not win the contest, for
Farrell pitched the game of his lite, and
| two lonely singles was the extent to which
he allowed the Oaklands to tamper with
| his delivery. His work was simply i'm
mense, and had it not been so the victory
would not have been for Sacramento. for
Carsey was also at his best But six hits
were made off the Oakland pitcher, bu,
these, coupled with errors were enough to
cause the visitors defeat.
Bowman and Lehman, the catchers.
were both up to everything, though the
latter was superior. Bowman acted quite
stupidity on the bases in one of the innings,
and he is getting to be altogether too slow
in picking up passed balls. He saws, how
ever, that he can hardly see at times, on
account of trouble with his head.
The out6elders of the Sacramentos had
but one chance, and that fell to Roberts
1t was fy-ball, and went the way of all
that are batted out in his direction.
Cedar made two pretty assists, Daily
erred once, and Reiiz was also marked
with an error. 1t was rather base-hit for
the batter, Mcdonald, than an error for the
little second-baseman. The ball was hit
hard over the second bag, but Reitz gath
cred 1t in after hard run to the right.
In his anxiety to forward it to first in time,
he threw low, and the runner was safe at
the initial. Mcdonald should have been
given hit, for undoubtedly no other Sec
ond-baseman would have attempted 10
field the ball, and in such case the batter
would have been credited with his bit and
the fielder given no error. Nine other
chances were given Reitz, and he took care
OF them all. His home-run in the second
inning braced up the nine.
Stapleton had twenty chances and took
all of them without an error. His hitting
was also quite an important factor in the
| run. getting of the home club.
The Oakland outfeld played without a
fault, but had only four chances. Stickney
at third got an error for tumble, O'Neill
at short muffed fly, while Mcdonald and
Isaacson had fifteen chances between them,
all of which were accepted.
ONeill undoubtedly expected to be
guyed by the audience more than he was
but after giving him few rallies they
ceased.
Mike Fisher umpired. and beyond being
little off on balls and strikes his decis-
ions were generally correct.
The game was holly contested through
out, and the score stood 10 3 up to the
ninth inning. 1t was at this stage that the
Sacramentos got in their hitting and added
three runs to the score. In the Oakland's
half of the ninth inning no runs were
made. Farrell, however, gave out after
one man was retired, and Reitz went into
the box. He shut the Oaklands out Fol-
lowing is the score:
