THE NATIONALS DEFEATED.
II was tough luck to lose game in which
there were no errors and Washington outbatted
Columbus. Yet it was lost and the dispatches
say it was on account OF poor base Nlnning.
The score WAS to 4. Carsey and Mcclure and
Dolan and Donohue wereathe batteries. Grif-
I'm, who was struck by pitched ball in Tues
days game in Cincinnati, was unable to play
and Sutcliffe occupied his place in center, while
Dowd played left, with Hatfield at short and
Shannon ON second. The game was remark
able In that there were no fielding errors made
by either side and yet only three of the nine
runs were earned. McCauley had a chance to
win the game for Washington in the ninth in
ming, when the Senators took on some extra
speed, as a single hit from him would have tied
the score and probably have brought in the
winning run. As it was tive tallies were all
that the Nationals could make and they rested
just short of the game. Sutcliffe batted very
heavily, making four singles, while Mcclure
made three, Shannon a single ana double and
Murphy two singles. And yet
THE SENATORS COULD NOT WIN.
Columbus scored twice in the first inning.
Crooks reached third on a base on balls a steal
and a sacrifice, and scored when Sneed hunted
one down to Shannon. Sneed. who reached
first in safety, tailed on a two-bagger by
Twitchell and sacrifice by Donohue. The
home club put another on the score board in
the second and made their lead bigger. One
man was out when Donnely went to first on
balls stole second anu scored when Crooks hit
for two bases.
~ .ipZ4IaI MURPHY SCORES.
Washington made its first tally in the third
inning Murphy being the man to break the
ice. He lined out safe one for base and
stole second promptly. Shannon struck out,
and after Hatfield had flied to Crooks Sutcliffe
smashed one at Leblanc, who became somewhat
ratified. and between him and Dolan, who tried
to cover the bag, Sutcliffe was safe and Murphy
was in with the run. The lead was further cut
down in the fourth. when Dowd made the cir
cult on a base on balls. a steal, sacrifice by
Alvord and single by Carsey. Thus the score
stood until the seventh, when Columbus pulled
away from the rather close proximity of the
Statesmen. 1t was well that that run was made
then for the sake of Columbus. One run was
Tailed by Leblanc, who made single. steal
and scored on sacrifices by Donnelly and Dolan.
The ninth was exciting. Columbus began by
making a run. Leblanc hit for two bases and
Dolan for one, and the combination was good
for a tally.
washington's contribution to the fun was
couple of runs and strong chance of more.
1t was then that McCauley could have won q
niche in the hearts of the stay-at-homes by
single or a whole gallery by q double, but he
neglected his opportunity. Carsey was out on
a fly when Lawrence Patrick made his second
hit shannon redeemed himself for his former
inability to hit by smashing out a two bagger.
Hatfield was unfortunate and famed the air.
but Sutcliffe was right there with his fourth
hit OF the game, and on ii Murphy and Shan
non ambled across the rubber. There were
two out when Mcclure hit for base, and SUIT
cliffe was on third as McCauley stepped to the
plate. His grOunder was captured by Crooks.
who was playing three-fourths of the Columbus
game, and McGuire was forced at second as
Sutclifie was digging for home with the run
that would have tied the score.
Washington made Is hits and no errors and
Columbus 8 hits and no errors.
