cry was hit harder than was Camps
The best piece of fielding in the game was
Stencils forward running catch of Twins hit,
which he barely reached and by so doing shut
out run Powell also made a nice capture of
Klopfs line drive, and Irwin got in fine left
handed stop Of ground hit and caught his man
at first.

strother umpiring was great improvement
over bis work of the day before, but he still
seemed trifs unsteady on balls and strikes.

went to third on passed ball. Schoeneck flied

out on his forced attempt to reach second. Man
