Pittsburg dispatch. [volume] (Pittsburg [Pa.]) 1880-1923, 1891-08-16
CREDIT FOR BILL BROWN.

To Bill Brown is due the greater part of
the credit for the Pnillies run getting.
With two on bases i'll the sixth he raped
out twobagger to left center, which was as
clean as a whistle and scored both men and
scoring himself on Rcilly's fumtle of
Mayors grounder and a wild pitch. While
Brown deserves credit for the part he took
in the scoring, the brilliant work of Hamil-
ton, Clements and Thompson. which pre-
vented Pittsburg from tieing, if not winning,
ia the seventh deserves mention. Hamil-
toms catch OF MiIlers fly and his
throw to the plate WAS a brilliant play. If
thr throw had been the least bit wide, or if
clements had shown any weakness, Hanlon
would have scored. Bierbauers fly was a
low liner TO right. which less capable
fielder than Thompson would have missed,
i'm which event our name would have been
Dennis. That seventh inning was probably
The most exciting witnessed here this sea
son, and at its conclusion the crowd gave
vent TO its enthusiasm in one prolonged
cheer. -
The Phillies broke ice in their half of the
fifth. Brown was sent to first on balls and
advanced to second on Mayors sacrifice,
Baldwin to Beckley. ESper was sent to first
ON balls. Hamilton followed with a sharp
zap toward third, for which Reilly made
play, but only succeeded in breaking the
force Of the ball. which rolled safely into
left center, and Brown came in.
EvENED MATTERS UP.
Thompson flied to Corkhill and Delahanty
was thrown out by Bierbauer The Pirates
evened things up in their half. Carroll led
of with double to center, although from
the stand if looked as though Delahanty had
it. Reilly then came up and gave a COM
prehensive exhibition of bunting. He had
one strike called, hunted II flies, and finally
hunted one fair. on which he was thrown out
nj FIRST by Mayer, Carroll going to third
Corkhill poked one straight at Myers who
went down after it but came up with a hand
