split his right forefnger, and it may be
some time before the Pittsburgs will see
the old standby in the box again. He was
succeeded by Elmer Smith, who also did
fine work after his first inning in the box.
Bufinton was as wild as March hare at
times, and at others again wonderfully
steady. He gave an exhibition of head
work in the sixth inning, when, with three
men on the bases and no hands out, he pre-
vented scoring.
One Very Unfortunate Feature
The fact that 13 of the Pit:sburgs died on
the bases speaks for itself. Both teams
played with snap and vigor, the fielding be-
ing good. Baltimores errors were not more
costly than those of the visitors. The fea-
tures of the game were two great catches by
Farrell and fine throw nipping a runner at
third. the fielding of Schoch. welch and
shurart and the batting of Halligan and
Beckley.
The Baltimores began scoring in the first
when. after Van Haltren went out WeIch
got his base on balls. Schoch followed with
q bunt to first. and in trying to ca tch Welch
Becllley threw wild and Curt reached third
Halligan then followed with q triple over
Farrelrs head, scoring Welch and Schocb
but he himself was left. In their half the
Pittsburgers got two men on bases after two
men were out, but Raymond struck out and
they died there. In the second they again
had two on the bases, but double play broke
them up. In the third Shugart made n
double after two were out and this, too, was
wasted.
Th- Ba1timores Increased Their Lead,
The Orioles increased their lead by one in
the fourth, when, after Hallisan had flied
out, Pickett made a hit He was forced at
second by Shindle. and the latter reached
second on a passed ball. Then Whistler hit
a hard one to Shugart, who let the ball go
through him and Shindle crossed the pla te
Then the Pittsburgs woke up. After Raw
mond had fouled out Farrell drove beauty
TO center for base. and Mack followed suit
with hit over third base on which Farrell
reached third. Mack going to second on a
play to catch Farrell, Corkhill sacrificed to
left field and Van Haltren threw beautifully
to the plate, but Robby fumoled and Farrell
scored. Then Calvin hit a little one to Bu.-
fnton and the latter fumbled, allowing
Mack to score and Calvin to get to first A
base on balls to Miller and Bierbauers short
hit followed, filling the bases, but Shurart
In the next inning Beckley started Off with
triple over Welch's head, and he came in
on a wild pitch, tieing the score.
Another Very Unlucky Stage.
In the next two men went out, but Farrell
and Corkhill reached second and third on
errors by Shndle and Schoch and a wild
pitch, but Smith struck out and left them to
die. In the sixth the Baltimores made their
last run, and what proved to be the last of
tie game. Halligan drove beauty to right
field which looked good for three bases, but
Farrell caught 1t by jumping fully foot.
Pickett then raped out single and Shindle
a double to the left field bleachers, sending
in Pickett. In the seventh Pittsburg started
out to do or die. Miller made a clean single
to center and Bierbauer followed suit. Shu-
CART, in trying to sacrifice, hunted safe and
the bases we're full. Then Buff1nton settled
down to work. Beckley hit a hard one to
Whistler, who made grand stop and nipped
Miller at the plate. Raymond, who followed,
struck out, and Farrell retired the side by
sending fly to Pickett, and for the second
time three Pittsburgeis expired the
bases. Alter this base getting was rare and
