1T WASA GREAT SLUGGING MATCH.
)THER GAMES PLAYED YESTERDAY

The Pittsburg National League team
went into the game yesterday with whirl,
such as was never seen before. They have
a great batting streak, and Burkett's curves
were twisted all out of shape and sent
sizzling hot against the fence. Then he was
wild as we'll, and gave numerous bases on
balls, netting quite a number of runs in
themselves. Will Gumbert pitched for
Pittsburg, and while he was wild and hit
hard at times, he was given good support
and won his game. He did well with the
bat also, and his hitting is responsible for
several runs. In fact, everybody hit the
ball but Hecker, and Catcher Decker got
four hits and life out of five times at bat.

inning, Miller scoring on base on balls, q
