The Grays played I'm something like
Nheir old form yesterday and the result
was that aided by the magnificent pitch
ing Of Jim Sullivan of South Boston, they
beat the Bingoes. Sullivan had the repu-
tation as the best pitcher in the Western
League to sustain, and he did 1t to the
complete satisfaction of about 1000 per-
sons who went out to see the game, not
3 withstanding the hard luck the Grays
have had His nerve was something
wonderful when the Bingoes wanted hits,
and this was particularly true IN the SIKH kun
Heine and Leblanc, while knight was
forced out at the plate, Mack to Gray.
sReddyn Mack was back in his old
place at second, and as was predicted, he
put new life into the team. Farrar was
suffering with his injured hand, and this
is the cause OF the three errors In MS
score.
He sent one ball over the left field fence
in the second inning, batting it SO high in
the air that it was almost out OF sight,
and getting a fine two-bagger in the
seventh. Sullivan also batted we'll, max
ing three hits out of three times at bat.
For the Bingoes, Hanrahan did some
brilliant fielding, spelling at least two
base hits aud stopping two other hard
hit balls which he could not handle in
time. None of them could bat Sullivan
at the right time however, and had it
not been for costly errors they would
have been shut out.
The only run made for Eve innings was
the home run Of Grays. In the. fifth.
errors by Farrar and Petit assisted by u

to tie the score. In the seventh, Gray's
two-bagger, singles by Petit. Farrar and
Horning and two bases on balls, netted
them runs and placed the Grays appar
emily out of harms way. The Bingoes,
however. got one run In their half and
another in the eighth and made bril-
liant effort to tie the score In the ninth,
but Jack Leighton spoiled their plans by
