Pittsburg dispatch. [volume] (Pittsburg [Pa.]) 1880-1923, 1892-08-23

lvn fellows that
team can well get The walloping was so
tremendous that the 1,75O people who saw
ii only laughed and resigned themselves so
much to it that the affair was looked upon
as an effort of fun making rather than any
thing else. A score of II to 1 is a corker
and that's how matters stood at the end of
the ninth inning the one belonging to the
local team of course. Great big humping
hits and glaring errors were the order of the
day. The hits belonged to Brooklyn and
the errors to our chaps.
Started in All Right.
1t looked as if the entire home team had
an of 6ay with the exception of Bierbauer,
who, it may be remarked, has of late put up
one of the most brilliant games at second
ever seen in Pittsburg. And he has been
doing it steadily. But his colleagues yester-
day had quite picnic among themselves.
The contest started with Ehret in the box
and at the end of the first inning it looked
as if the visitors were not going to be in it,
as Ehret put the ball across the plate with
lightning-like rapidity. He struck big
Brouthers out on three balls pitched But
the second inning was where the fun
started and Ehret mmenced it He
Jared worse in the third, and in the fourth
he appealed to Buckenberger to be taken
out.
Manafee went in and before the contest
ended it was obvious tn at the State Leaguer
is not the ''phenom" that his friends claim
him to be. True, he was up against the
very worst people in the world for young
phenom to face. John Ward, indeed, has
Some people with him who are at any stage
likely to find out all tn weak spots of vet
erans to say nothing about the young
bIoods. At any rate, there was not much of
the phenomenal about Manafee when the
visitors were through with HIM. They
nearly knocked the leather off the ball
when Enret pitched it, and they kept
things Just as lively when Manatee tried
his hand. There we're eight hits, including
two double and triple made off Ehret, and
the remaining ten were made off Manafee.
Some Players Were Injured
And there were mishaps in the game that
relieved the monotony. In the fourth in
ming Smith hurt his foot when running to
second and Miller went to left field and
Mack went behind the bat In the same
inning Burns hurt his leg when running to
first and Foutz relieved him, and the game
was so one-sided when the seventh inning
started that Kennedy went to right field
and Foutz started to pitch. Our sluggers
only made two hits off Kennedy's delivery
were so effective that no matter how we'll
Ehret had pitched it is not likely that he
would have won.
Altogether the defeat was one of those
general break downs that is liable to occur
with anv team.
In the second inning Burns led off with
single to left DAILY knocked a grounder to
Ehret and the latter picked up the ball to
throw Burns out at second. But Ehret
took no aim and the ball went into center
field and aided by tumble by Kelly Burns
scored. O'Brien made a single to center
and Keli again fumbled the ball and DAILY
scored. This blundering was the COM
mencement OF a remarkable exhibition.
Made Matters Very Lively.
Griffin started the third inning off and
made a single to middle. Ward gently
knocked the ball near to Ehret and the latter
fumbled it. Corcoran's sacrifce sent the
two runners to second and third respective
ly. Brouthers scored them both BY a single
to center. Brouthers reached second on the
throw-in OF Burns long fy to Smith.
Dalv made double and Brouthers scored,
and O'Brien's single scored DAILY.
Young Nh. Kennedy started off in the
fourth inning by whacl1ing the ball to the
LEFT fence for three bases, and then Ehret
looked toward the bench. But he was kept
III the DoX until Manalee got little prac-
tice. Ehret struck Griffin out and Ward
made two-bagger and stole third. Mana-
fee now relieved Ehret and Corcoran got
his base on balls. Big Dan Brouthers faced
Manafee, and, after looking at him a little,
banged the ball to the right center fence for
three bases. Burns made single, scoring
Brouthers, making total of four runs for
the inning.
In the sixth inning Ward made triple
and scored on passed ball In the eighth
a wild throw by Shugart, sacrifice, q safe
bunt BY Corcoran and a two-bagger by
Brouthers scored two runs.
In the ninth inning a muffed fly by Mil
Ter, a single by O'Brien, doubles by Daily
and Ward and triple by Corcoran and a
base on balls netted four more runs.
The run of the home team was scored on
Donovan's base on balls, Smiths double
and q sacrifice by Kelly. The score:
