GOOD ENOUGH.

Ball for Frisco.

port and Lost.
Harper Again instrumental in Downing the
Colonels-Resu,ts Of Contests in the
Amateur League.

The ball game yesterday afternoon was
well patronized considering the poor work
Frisco has been lately doing, and that
Stockton is in the tail-end of the league
race. The home team won the contest
baudIly. but not easily, as there were sew
eral periods in the game when the visitors
could have tied the score by getting safe
hit; but. unfortunately for them, that much
needed base hit never came. The game
vas not a good one, neither was it poorly
played, as a whole, 1t was tame affai at
best, with few fine plays to arouse the in
terest of the audience. In the early in
uings the fielding was of such poor char
acter that it marred all enjoyment for the
succeeding work.
The StoektOns had steady streak Of er-
ror-making, marrinG their field perform
ances, and Duane, the Texas importation
played the poorest ball in the whole outfit.
He has been praised for his catching by
Stockton people, but his back-stop work
If yesterday is not deserving of laudatory
common t. He threw splendidly to bases in
he preliminary practice, but IN the game
was very wild, throwing anywhere but near
the baseman.
PeTrOIt pitched winning game for the
NlollOIoS DuI IL ldhtS llOlo lIldu OuC HAL W
play baseball, and the other eight members
Of the team might have done just little
better work The Stockton twirler had fine
control of his curves, and the hits made off
him were seldom punched.
There was no spot that was weaker than
another in the visiting club. but each man
contributed his mite to the bunder column
and the sum total makes a discreditabe
showing. Heavy and frequent safe batting
was required to overcome the results of
their errors, and the Gas City men we're
dneq ual to perform the task. Cahill raped
a single and a two-base hit and Armstrong
thrice hit safely, but the balance of the nine
used the stick in weak style.
Charley Chase, the young twirler who
has been In the box for the Stockton and
Sacramento clubs this season, pitched for
the home team in place Of Young, who is
on the sick list The young fellow twirled
an excellent game, giving but four bases on
balls and allowing seven safe hits, one q
twO-bagger. His hit was a long double to
center, and his error wide throw to Sec
Ond on force hit.
The Frisco team gave their pitcher fair
support. Riley was guilty of two errors at
short, but made up for his misplays by
good fielding. Ebright and Shea did con-
siderable good work in their positions and
batted heavily, the former lining out two
singles and a triple. Perrier was again at
first base and played the bag in clever
style. The Frisco outfeld played a perfect
game, and the three men gathered in some
difficult hits.
In the first inning for the home team
stevens hit to Fudger, was safe on the
shortstOp's error. stole second and scored
on Ebrlghts triple TO right field. Ebright
scored on Levy's single TO right.
In the third for Frisco Shea hit safely to
left field, stole second, went TO third on
Duane's low throw and scored when Wilson
missed the return throw from Holiday.
Hanley hit to Wilson. was safe on Selna's
error, went to second on Stevens sacrifice
and scored on Ebrights single.
In the third for Stockton Cahill hit a
two-bagger to right field and scored on Hol-
liday's single. In the fourth Armstrong
batted to Shea and beat the bail to first.
He stole second and went home on sacTi-
fees by Duane and Wilson.
In the seventh for Frisco Chase batted to
center for two bases and scored on Shea's
single 10 left. Shea went to second on the
thrOw-in, advanced TO third on wild pitch
and scored on Hanley's single.
In the eighth for Stockton Armstrong
made first on Riley's error, stole second and
scored on Wilson's single. The score:
