The Wilmington team made it's first ap-
pearance here on the Howard avenue
grounds yesterday afternoon, and was de.
feated in regulation style by the local team.
There was strong wind blowing and 1t was
little too chilly for model base ball day.
The visitors put Sworbaok In the boz with
the hope that he would prove effective
against his old comrades, but the home team
did not seem to find much trouble in con-
Meeting with The horsehide. "Billy" was a
trifls wild and hit three of the home players.
At times the felders in back of him braced
up and did sharp work, but on the whole
their work was poor. "Jack" Doran twirled
the sphere for New Haven, and was whole
team in himself. He retired twelve of the
visitors on strikes, and only allowed them
three hits. The visitors should not feel bad
over their defeat, though, but jump in to-day
and play ball from the word 60. There are
very few teams in the country who could
beat New Haven the way they are playing at
present, especially with our clever ''sonth-
paw" In the box. and the visitors should
not get discouraged, but hope for
better luck next time. About 1000
people attended the game and they literally
applauded the good plays made by both
teams. The feature of the game was enc
handed running catch of fly by Will
liams in the ninth inning and then throwing
the ball to second and assisting in double.
Lynch carried off the batting honers with
three beautiful singles. He was hit in the
arm in the eighth inning by a pitched ball,
severely iujuring that member. Lynch
seems tn be playing in hard luck lately and
has been hurt several times. Dickerson took
his place at right, but had nothing to do.
Dorsn up in excellent style. In fact, their
battery work was as perfect as anyone could
wish it to be. Terrien gobbled up everything
| at second and seems to be playing that posi-
| ton like an old timer on the bag. He made
| pretty stop in the second and then nailed q
| man at the plate by q lightning throw.
"Snap" Lang also did we'll, but he probably
| imagined Schosneck was fifty feet tall at one
| time. Taken as whole 1t was good game,
but New Ravens supremacy was painfully
apparent.
The first runs were scored In the third
inning. Hofford got his base on balls and
took second on Doran's single. Lang's
grounder forced Doran out at second. Hof-
ford took third on the putout and came
home on Sullivan's error. Lang went to
third on wild pitch. Mckee fouled out.
Lynch hit safe and Lang scored. Nelson
fumbled Schoenick's grounder and the runner
got first, Lynch taking second on the error.
Lally was hit with the ball and both runners
moved up a base. The bases were now full
but Doyle went out from second to first, re-
firing the side.
One more was scored in the fifth. Coogan
misjudged McKee's fly and "Mack" took
second. He prettily stole third and came
home on Lynch's single.
Two more were scored in the seventh.
Coogan again dropped McKee's fly and the
runner got to first. Lynch again came to the
front with single, moving Mckee to second.
Corcoran tried to catch Mckee at second by
throw, but "Mack" went to third, and Sui.
Ivan let Lynch 60 by him with the ball in
his hand. Schoeneok then poked out sim
gle and both runners scored.
Three more were made in the next. VII
liams made bad muf of Terrien's fly and
"Teyry" grinned at him from FIRST base
Terry then stole second. Hofford flew ont
Doran lined the ball over Galligan's head fol
two bases and Terrier crossed the plate
Newell fumbled Lang's grounder and "Snap'
reached frat. Doran stole third and Lang
went to second. Both runners scored on {
passed ball. This ended the run.getting.
