STRUCK A
WINNING STREAK.
San Jose Takes the Second Game
From Frisco.
Ginsberg's stampeded Steers Receive Sorry
prubbing at the Hands Of the Colonel's
Men-Games To-Day

San Jose executed another of its world re-
nOwned and justly celebrated finishes in
the game with Friscos yesterday afternoon.
During the first half the play was full of
sparkle. Runs came in singly and alone
until each side had three.
Then came the innings fraught with con-
hicting doubts and pains and one base hit
In the seventh inning q three-bagger and
few well-timed errors gave the Gardeners a
lead of two tailies In the next inning more
errors and a couple of light and airy two
baggerS paved the way for four runs which
were not needed. They were simply thrown
in as guarantee of good faith.
1t wasn't horseshoe luck that gave Finn
his second straight victory over the locals
Clean hitting helped, but unclean bungles
were OF greater assistance. San Jose bungled
some too, but not so much as their oppo-
nents Willie Hassamer played through
Fridays game without chance, but yester-
day he had more than he could take care Of
Three Of his failures to connect were re-
sponsibie for like number of runs
THE DUKE PUTTING ON AIRS.
Just because he is two games ahead al
ready. the Duke is putting on more airs
than new hand-organ. He thinks he has
picked winner, but when the swelling sub

gets well. the fielders stop muffing fly balls,
Hassamer swears off bungling, Cobb ceases
to throw wild. Sharp Squeezes thrown balls
and Cartwright keeps his hind foot on the
bag, the Duke will sing different tune
OF course accidents will happen, but they
are more annoying on the ball-field than
anywhere else. To begin with, Peck Sharp
started away on single and reached second
on sacrifice. He might have fingered
there had not Bill Everett got his hands and
feet tangled up in a ground hit. But that is
what happened tG Bill and Peck reached
third. Levy started for second to draw
StallingS' fire and Sharp scored.
In the second for San Jose Ebright sent
the bali to center. Daniel Webster Sweeney
made rush to meet the ball, but stopped
and turned like an unprotected steer in a
blizzard, and the bounding sphere went on
to the clubhouse. d. w. Sweeney chased
the ball, but by the time he reached it
Ebright was at third, where he stopped.
The bail was thrown to Clark, who dropped
1t, and then while he was tearing ND hands
tul OF earth reaching for 1t again Ebright
Hoped home.
STRUCK THE UNITED STATES.
In this cheerful reciprocity mood the teams
kindly gave each other much needed run.
Then Cobb went to work in the third for
his side and, by sublimely beautiful exhi-
bition of patience, which never ceases TO be
virtue at the plate, he got base on balls.
Sharp sacrificed and D. w. Sweeney weited
out two-bagger which went and lost itself
in the luxurious alfalfa down by the score
board. Thus Cobb tailed the first run that
had no rebates due on it.
Frisco was now one run to windward,
but the scene changed and they dropped
astern in the next inning. Stallings sent up
tall fly, which d. W. Sweeney juggled after
long, hard run, in which he was con-
siderably In advance of his legs. Looka-
bsush and McGucsen made martyrs of
themseivts-hase-ba martyrs it should
be--in order that their friend might reach
third, which lie did.
He would have fingered there had not
Cobb tried 80 catch him mapping. Cobb
threw 10 Smith, and the play would un-
doubleday have been a success had not the
United States suddenly loomed UP between
Nick and the ball. The sphere caromed on
this great and glorious republic and then
bumped along to the bleachers, while
StallIngs came in and tied the score up
again.
IN AT THE FINISH.
Harris men passed out quickly in the
fourth, but San jose improved its golden
opportunities, to get one run ahead. l:
single. Buck helped him to second and then
Bill Hassamer got in his first bungle.
Everett scored and San Jose pulled into the
lead once more.
it was now Frsco's turn to tie the score.
which trey did with the assistance OF Firms
young Mr. Sharp in right field Hassamer
swatted the tail to him, but he muffed it
and Bill got to second, scoring later on
Sweeney S sacrifice drive to right. The tie
remained unbrOken until the eighth when
Lookabaugh drove in two runs ON a triple
to right.
Lo0ka5augh's pitching fooled the locals,
and they got but iour scattering hits Cobb
pitched strong game, but the San JoseS
punched on him in the lasttwo innings,
when they raped out a victory. The fea-
lures were Smiths clever stop of a line
grounder and Swetts cannon-ball throw to
second, ami the subsequent arrest of a base
Stealer. Following is lhe score:
