Pittsburg dispatch. [volume] (Pittsburg [Pa.]) 1880-1923, 1892-07-03

troduced by the locals and that cast the die
lgainst them. The Giants were just wait
@ for such shortcomings and sure enough
appeared in the eighth inning, and, OF
drse, they were taken advantage of by
visitors But the visitors had to hustle
r everything they got at that, and taking
verything into consideration the contest
was a very interesting one and the $500
people present enjoyed it.
King Was the Stumbling Block.
Charley King was in great form, and
probably the "Silver"- haired Young man
never pitched better ball, and do as they
would the local representatives couldn' t
get away with him. His greatest ambition
was to down his old pals, and he did it.
But his present colleagues gave him ad-
mirable support They made few errors,
of course, but they stopped several base
hits Doyle, who PLAYED short, really
crowned himself with glory, and so did
Burke. Boyle also caught we'll and threw
to bases in way that soon stopped our
worthless from trying to steal bases
And "Red' Ehret pitched in splendid
form, and it was only in the eighth inning,
when everybody thought that victory was
sure to perch itself on the local banner, that
he made one or two fatal mistakes. A double
was made off his delivery at that stage, and
he supplemented that by giving base on
balls and hitting the third man with a
pitched ball And there was nobody out
when these disastrous things occurred But
despite that inning he pitched great game,
and even amid his mistakes there not run
should have been scored had Shugart and
Bierbauer not blundered.
An Argument About the Umpire.
-efo-e~the game started there was some
controversy about who was to umpire the
game. Early in the morning, in answer to
Mr.. Days protest, President Young wired
hat Terry or Mack umpire the game in
stead of Mitchell To this the officials of
the local club strongly objected on a matter
of principle, and notified Mr.. Young to this
effect. Mr.. Young finally wired that
Mitchell could umpire the game, and he
did SO. He did it well, and it is hard to
understand why Mr. Day made the protest
on FRIDAY night. In all fairness to Mitchell
and every body else, that gentleman umpired
a really good game. Yesterday the visitors
started in to make hostile demonstrations
against every close decision made against
them, and their own sense of manhood and
fair play caused them to desist.
1t is needless to say that hits were as
scarce as sunbeams on q rainy day. The
the plate and they did SO in somewhat
remarkable manner. After two men were
out in the second inning, Denny LYONS
picked out a good one and knocked the
ball high into the air far into left field near
the foul line Smith got partially in under
the ball and it struck his fingers ends and
bounded into the bleachers OF course
Lyons ambled home.
Our Singers Took the Lead.
The fifth inning came round before any
more runs were scored and then the home
PLAYERS took the lead. After Smith was
out Farrell got his base on balls and reached
third on Corkhill's single Corkhill got to
second on the throw to nab Farrell at third
Ehret followed with fine single to center,
scoring the two runs These were all the
runs the home players got or ever looked
like getting.
1t looked like another home victory up
to the eighth inning. In the second half of
that inning Doyle started off with hit for
two bags, the ball striking the left foul line
Herman got his base on balls, and, as ill
luck would have it, Ehret hit II. LYONS
with a pitched ball, filling the bases.
O'Rourke's grounder to Farrell forced
DovIe out at the plate. Ewing was up
next, and knocked a grounder to Shugart,
O'Rourke out at second Bierbauer threw
the ball wildly to Beckley 20 effect double
play, and the bad throw allowed both Tier
nan and Lyons to score. Had the clay been
clean there would have been double play
andlno runs made. Ewing was put out try
tngtto steal second. Score:
