ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DIsPArcH.l
NEW YORK, Aug 4-Anticipations OF at
least breaking a osing spell made Manager
McGunnigle feel hopeful this afternoon, and
as Silver King was feeling rather strong in
that right arm of his prior to the game, it
made the manager bold enough to wager n
81 necktie that the Smoky City team would
win. Il want to wear that tie when reach
Pittsburg," he remarked. But Manager Nc
Gunnigle will not get il this time, for the
| PittSburg's again lost, and they were de-
feated quite easily at that. A very small
crowd was present, the threatening weather
keeping the attendance down to 476. King
began well, but in the final innings he was
laced ont rather hard. There were no bril-
liant plays, the balls being hit at the field
ers. Ward and Pinkney however, picked up
number of rapid moving ground hits, both
also throwing well J. o'Bnen did not do as
well at second base as has been his custom,
but only one of the errors were costly.
BEGAN IT ALL RIGHT.
The visitors began the game in proris-
ing manner. They retired the Brooklyns in
one, two, three order and in their turn sent
flied out, but Shugart merely pushed the
ball just far enough over j. O'Brien's head.
Shugart cleverly stole second, and ran for
third when Beckley hit to J. 0'Brien. The
latter fumbled and as he was unable to pick
up the ball the Pittsburger kept on running
and easily crossed the plate. double play,
in which Ward, j. O'Brien and Foutz were
the factors, put a damper on all further
scoring in this inning. While at occasional
times each team would get player on the

the Brooklyn players feel somewhat tick
liSh. for rain storm after the inning was
completed meant defeat. Griffin waited pa
tiently, as only Griffin can, and for the sec
ond time would not bite at any wide balls,
and as King could not find the plate, Griffin
trotted to first base on called balls. John
O'Brien knew it was time to do something,
and responded in n lively manner. He laid
his stick up against an inshoot and the ball
shot to left field, where neither Shugart,
Reilly or Miller happened to be. "Did you
see it7'' yelled Burns to Manager McGunni-
gle, who was jumping around uneasily i'll

One of the Pittsburg f1elders was mean
enough to remark "two out, boys" when
Lovett stepped to the plate. 1t was the
third ball pitched that the doughty pitcher
took liking to, and he almost

over the Dencn Dy smashing MS Dat against
the ball and like a streak the ball went skin
ming along the ground toward Hanlon. On
the hit Griffin and J. O'Brien crossed the
plate. The visitors tied the score in the fol-
lowing inning SThen Miller found himself on
second after hitting to left, and he felt so de-
lighted that he gave his lungs full power in
yelling. "WOw, WOW. wow" But he stormed
with madness when Umpire Hurst declared
him out at the plate while attempting to
tally on Mack's bunt to Pnkney. The latter
threw too late to Foutz but the first base
man got it home in time to retire Miller.
Carroll dropped the ball just inside the left
field foul line and although the ball was re-
turned in time to catch Mack at the plate,
kinslow dropped the ball. The seventh in
ming was hummer for Brooklyn and the
ball was fairly raining in places where the
flelders were not. Griffin singled and stole
second on Mack's low throw. Kinslow also
hit safe, while Lovett dropped the ball in
short left, sending in Griffin. Ward banged
out double lotting Kinslow score, and
Foutz also got to second on a hit to left on
which Lovett and Ward crossed the plate.
Pinkney WIS the last TO hit safely and on his
effort Ward Tailed. A base on balls to Grif-
fin and two steals gave the home team an
other run in the eighth inning. Score:
