ONE VICTORY AND ONE DEFEAT,

II is q mingled tale Of joy and sadness that IL
| to be told today Of the doings of the National
ball club in Louisville. 1t is tale that begins
WELL but ends sadly. There in, therefore. about
as much of a counterbalance about it as could
be expected from . team that is playing ball on
other than its own grounds. On Saturday the
team played to an audience of something more
than couple of thousand people, and won by
the score of 10 to G. 1t was pure case of hard
smuggling. Every man on the Washington team
batted safely during the game, and some of
them three and four times. Murphy and
Alvord. for instance, hit for base four times
in the game, Mcclure three times, and Sutchffe
and Hatfield twice each. 1t was an odd feature
of the game that with all Of this heavy hitting
there was not a senatorial hit that was good for
more than one base.
The batteries were Foreman and Mcclure,
and Stratton, Schellhasse and Cahill WASH
ington took big lead in the first inning, max
ing five runs on hits by Murphy, Dowd, Nc
Guire, McCauley and Alvord, together with q
passed ball and base on balls. Then in the
third inning, wheI Hatfield Foreman, Mvord
and Murphy hit safely. The score wac 10 to 2
in the seventh, when Louisville made o squirt
and tailed four runs on three single hits, a
double of doubtful variety by Wolf and a
Shannon did not play and Dowd covered sec
ond. with Sutcliffe in left and Carsey in center.
Washington made 10 hits and errors and
Louisville IL hits and errors.
YESTERDAYS GAME.
There were over $500 people at the game
yesterday, and the Colonies, invigorated by
this apparent revival Of interest among the
folks of Louisville, took their turn at hitting
the ball and won by the score of IL to 4. 1t
was good deal like the game of Saturday re-
versed. The Colonies took big lead early in
the game and held it throughout. Carsey,
Eiteljorg and Mcclure and Fitzgerald and Ca
hill were in the points. Carsey was hit so hard
In the first two innings. when his opponents
made seven runs. that he retired in favor Of
Eiteljorg in the third. The westerner pitched
great ball during the rest Of the game and kept
the hitters guessing. 1t was only in the ninth
that they discovered enough of his system to
bat little bit, and then they managed to bunch
enough to make three runs.
Louisville played perfec. game in the field,
while Washington did about as well as on Satur-
day. Shannon was not in the game and the
same combination as on Saturday was worked,
with the exception Of Foreman in center field.
Each side had scored one run in the first
inning. when Louisville went to bat in the Sec
ond- There were two men out aud man on
first when the fun began Three singles. a base
on balls. triple and another single were the
factors that produced the six runs that won the
game.
After Louisville had made another run in the
fourth inning on some scratch work on both
sides Washington took a hand at the hitting
and scoring. Hits by Hatfield, Alvord and
Eiteljorg scored Hatfield, and after Murphy
was out on a fly and Alvord had been nabbed
while trying to score on Dowd's ground ball to
the pitcher Foreman went to first on balls and
he and Eiteljorg scored on SATELLITES single to
right. This was in the fifth inning. and after
that no runs were scored until the ninth inning.
when Louisville with lead of four runs,
thought to make the thing certain and Tailed
three more times A triple by Cahill, an error
by Dowd and triplet of singles by Taylor,
Weaver and Jennings did the work.
