OTHER CAMS.
Opportune hitting by the Athletics won them
game from the Baltimores in Philadelphia
yesterday. Cunningham pitched for the Orioles
and only hits were made of his delivery. while
only we're made Of Weyhing. The Athletics,
however. hit hard. their total bases on hits
being II, while the Baltimores made only 4.
Out Of q total Of five base hits, the spiders
made three home runs, two by Mexican and
one by thinner in the Chicago game yester-
day, yet they lost because the 'Colts'' punched
their hits and when Prefer made three-bag-
ger in one inning and two-bagger in another
there were men on bases. The fielding Of An
sons men was sharp and the two errors made
were not costly.
The Pirates started in with rush yester-
day at Cincinnati and scored four runs in the
first three innings. but then old Radbourn set
tied down and they could not do much with
him for the next five innings The home team
hustled themselves in the third and by hard
hitting. daring base running and good luck
made four runs, tieng the score. They struck
the lead in the seventh and held it till the
ninth, when Hanlon's men got q man around
the bases and tied the score. but were unable
to get man on base in the next inning When
Capt. Latham came to bat in the Reds half Of
the tenth he was hit by pitched ball, was ad-
vsnced on a sacrifice by McPhee, stole third

only one man out.

The Columbia Athletic Base Ball Club crossed
bats with the strong team from the Washington
Light Infantry Athletic Club at Capitol Park
yesterday afternoon and easily defeated it. the
score being Is to 1. A far as the Columbus
were concerned the game was by far the best
yet played The boys seemed imbubed with
new Life. and their batting and base running
and they fully demonstrated the fact that there
Is no better in the District. Leach struck out
sixteen men and the Infantry club received but
two hits off Of his speedy delivery. Wise and
Hayden occupied the points for the Infantry
and while both played an exceptionally good
game, the former was not effective. The game
was won strictly on its merits, the Columbias
outbatting and outfelding their soldier
brothers.
Mr.. E. Wright, Princeton's crack center
fielder, played with the Columbias and fully
sustained his reputation by his timely batting
and daring base running.
All the boys did well. The feature Of the
game was the timely and terrific batting Of
Springman and tho base running OF Greene,
Phil King and E. Wright. The victory yester
day practically decides the championship of
the District Amateur League, and the pennant
will fly from the flagstaff Of the Columbia
Athletic Club. Mr.. Ashford umpired, and his
decisions we're unbiased.
