CaldWell'S Title to the Idaho Pennant

WOOD RIVER NOT IN IT.

The Caldwell Ball Team Goes to Baker
City and Will Cross Bats With the

If there is any one hobby that the
ntaldwell ball team dOtes on, it is the
practice of giving their opponents one
run. Until this is accomplished the
boys seem ratified and nervous, but as
soon as the opposite side scores one, they
ally prevent another being made. For
three straight games the opposing team
has made but one run. The game Sun
day was no exception. The best picked
nine that Wood river could produce
arrived in town Saturday night, accom-
panied by about twenty-five people.
Some of our sports sat up for them,
hoping to get good bet before the
Wood river boys retired, but they were
too cautious. In fact very little bet
ting was done, the Caldwell boys being
unable to place their money. At about
o'clock Sunday the festivities were
opened by the Caldwell band, which
rendered several popular airs. The
game was called at 3 O'Clock, Caldwell
taking the field. Mr.. Young, of Nampa,
was agreed upon as umpire. Cheveron
and Sebree were the Caldwell battery:
Reed and French the Wood river bat
terry. Up to the eighth inning the
game was close and exciting, but at
that time French threw his arm out
and Smith took the box. The Caldwell
boys hit him at will and scored five
runs and but for brilliant double play
would have scored a dozen. Had
not French's arm given out the game
would undoubtedly have stood to l..
Not q run was earned by either team
up to the eighth inning, all scores being
made on errors. Following is the score
by innings:
1913 4.5 IS 8

[Signedl GEORGE,

the Wood River team and gave them
good treatment. Manager Reed has
written to Baker City, Oregon. that
: Caldwell will pay their expenses ia

come and play at that place next Sun
Gay, and Caldwell will go. One fare
for round trip.
The national league closes the season
today. The fight for the pennant thu
past two weeks has been between Chi.
cago and Boston. The last-named team
has been playing wonderful ball in
the wind-up, winning, up to Thursday
thirteen consecutive games. Two de.
feats for Chicago the first of this week
enabled Boston to So to the front in the
race where she will likely remain. The
standing of the two clubs is SO close
however, that the result cannot be told
until tOday's games are played.
100000 DEAL.
