found Woodcock very much to their liking.
They not only bagged plenty of safe hits,
but thev scored more sacrifices, which
answered Just as we'll, than were ever before
made bv them in a single game. Boston
took the lead in the first inning and held 1t,
the visitors being unable to crowd them
hard owing to the effective work OF Stlvetts.
Had His Eye on the Ball.
Tommy Mccarthy had his eve on the ball
tp-day and started off with two-Dagger.
Duffy's scratch hit to Beckley enabled him
to reach third and he scored on Longs sac
rifce. Pittsburg's chances looked bright
after Bierbauer had hit safely, but he was
ca ught mapping and was run down between
first and second bases. With two men out
in the second Farrell hit safely and stole
Sc cond. Mack made frantic efforts to
knock the cover from the ball, but he could
not hit and smother chance to score was
lost In the third the Beaneaters took an
other step forward Tucker scoring on
Shugart's tumble, McCarthy's hit and two
sacrifices The bases were filled when
Kelly took up the stick and only one man
was out. The Triumvirs rubbed their
hands and wondered how many runs their
gllt-eQged players would make.
The Great Kings Failure.
The great King Kel swung his bat with
mighty swing and managed to send the ball
to Woodcock The latter quickly threw it
to the plate, forcing one man, and then
Kelly was caught before he could reach the
first bag. 1t was pretty play and was
loudly applauded, even if it did dash the
hopes of the Beaneaters Boston made up
IL, 10 in -I rho,,
two runs were scored on base on balls, two
hits, wild throw by Shugart and a sacri-
fee Nerved to desperation by the victori-
Gus tramp CT the Bean Eaters upon their
necks, the visitors took a brace in their
hall of the fourth inning. Bierbauer gave
Nash a hot one, which the latter threw
wildly, ard Bierbauer was on second when
the ball was returned. Shugart atoned for
his errors by dropping the ball in left field
for a single, and Bierbauer was advanced
base Becklev lifted the ball far into right
field, and Bierbauer scored on the sacrifice,
Shugart taking third. The next two men
were easy victims, and only one run was
scored.
Very Near and Yet So Far.
The fifth was another interesting inning,
in which the visitors came within an ace of
scoring after two men we're out Wood
cock got his base on balls and reached third
on Miller's single. Before the latter could
steal second, Bierbauer sent an easy ground
er to Long and Miller was forced at second.
Again IN the sixth did the Smoky CITY
lads make the Beaneaters tremble. for
their lead was altogether too slight to give
them much encouragement. With Shugart
out, Becklev was given his base and reached
second On Longs tumble of Smiths ground
er. Farrell sent another grounder to the
same player, but he did better work this
time and caught Smith at second, Beckley
taking third Farrell thought he could
easily steal second with Beckley on third,
but Kelly made a quick throw and he was
caught before Beckley saw his chance
The Bostons had four men on bases in the
eighth inning, but only one of them scored
Stivetts was forced out at the plate on a
good throw by Shugart. Duffy came to
the rescue with single on which Tucker
scored, but the other two men were left on
third and second bases respectively. Far
rell and Shugart were responsible for Bos-
toms run in the ninth inning. Each made
a wild throw, and with the aid of two sac
rifce hits, Lowe crossed the plate. Not to
be outdone in little courtesies of that kind
Duffy dropped BeckIey's fly in the last of
the ninth inning and that player took two
bases on the error. Smiths sacrifice ad-
vanced him to third, and passed ball by
Kelly enabled him to score The score:
