Attendance, $500.
TIE afternoon game was one of the most
desperate struggles between two pitchers
ever seen on the home grounds Baldwin
and Staley were arrayed against each other,
and the 5,467 people present enjoyed the con-
test immensely. The twirlers performed in
the most brilliant manner, and it was evil
dent that if ever they wished to pitch win
ming game, yesterday was the time. OF
course the visitors won, but that was no fault
n lSsI Wi a oh
concerned, the home players ought to have
won, but his support was not as good as that
accorded Staley.
If Baldwin had been well taken care of by
his felders, the score at the end of the game
should have been one to nothing in favor OF
the home players. This means that he had
a shade the better of Staley in the pitching
argument. Ii a blunder in the outffeld had
not occurred, there would have been only one
hit made off Marks delivery. The blunder
was painful one, and doubtless not as pain
ful to anybody as it was to Hanlon and Car
roll and Baldwin.
How 1t Happened.
1t happened in the third inning. After
two men were out Stovey knocked a long
flv to right center field. Both Hanlon and
Carroll ran for it, and either could have CAP
tured il handily. But when near it both
stopped, and the ball fell between them
This allowed Stovey to be credited with
rhrcc-baso hit, when he should easily have
been out. Then Quinn followed with a real
three-bagger to right, scoring Stovey. This
was enough to rattle any pitcher, but Bald
win kept calm, and not another run should
nave been made by the visitors if Miller had
rot again loomed up with mis- take.
This was in the seventh inning. After
iIrodie had been retired on strikes Tucker
made q single, and then Lowe knockeda
@rounder to Miller. The latter got the ball
al right, but made wild throw to first
Bennett followed with a long fly. This
-hould have retired the side but Tucker
~cored from third on the throw in. Alto
-:ether amid the most brilliant pitching ever
done for the home players both games were
tpSu.
staley, OF course, pitched with vigor, being
.'Jtremely anxious to defeat the club that
Iad released him. His pitching was one
more proof of the mistake made by the
supreme authority of the club in being so
eager in casting Staley adrift
Diamond for Stalcy.
When the latter appeared at the plate he
was presented with valuable diamond
stud and r handsome basket of flowers by
els Pittsburg friends. He then proceeded to
strike out.
in the fourth inning, when the score was
one to nothing in favor of the visitors and
fer Miller was out, Carroll made home
-Hn to left field, tietng the score. In the
-iNth inning the home players looked like
winning, as with only Miller out Beckley
.uocked ont long hit 10 center Brodie
an and got under the ball, but on account
Il the stakes and ropes in the field to keen
7bc expected crowd back, he could not
manage to hold the ball. BecEley was there
Jricd to score on Carroliis hit to the infield
and was easily thrown out at the plate. The
