Pittsburg dispatch. [volume] (Pittsburg [Pa.]) 1880-1923, 1892-04-30

against that team principally owned by Mr..
Won der Horst, OF Baltimore. The tall and
stately Egyptian was not equal to the occa-
sion, however, and he came in for a real
sound drubbing And when things looked
their worst for John and his companions in
distress, the calliope on the new steam
packet passed down the river near the ball
grounds, sounding out in suggestive tones
the air of ''Home Sweet Home"
All Much Affected.
This NAV have been irony or it may have
been means of consolation, but it had a
great effect on the Baltimore team from
Manager Waiz down to Buffnton, who was
at the gate.
There were nearly 1000 people on the
grounds, and they saw very one-sided
game. The visitors can undoubtedly play
much better than they did Yesterday, and if
they cannot home is certainly the best
place for them. Their general work didn't
rise TO the dignity of good amateur base
ball. That may have been caused by the
erratic pitching of Healy, but whatever
was the cause it is certain that the team
will play much better than they did yester-
dav.
Shoch, the shortstop, was bright exam
pie of how not to do it. Anything that
went this way was all right for the home
players and doubtless the young man felt
very, very sad. He piled up four errors in
quite an artistic manner and Welch added
two more. And then again when John
Uealy was getting the ball over the plate
the local singers were every now and again
knocking the ball out of sight. Bierbauer
was out with not only his Sunday clothes
and batting clothes on, but he must have
had general suits on hand, for out of five
times at bat he knocked out four hits in
cluding splendid and clean home run.
Nearly Made a Record.
His fifth try at bat almost yielded
another great hit. And Connie Mack, too,
was on deck with the stick. He made a
fine three -bagger and was cheered go much
that he subsequently sent the ball to the
2j-cent seats for another home run. This
was all very pleasing, but it really left the
Baltimores SO far behind that there was
comparatively little enthusiasm over the
tall slugging.
And Old Sport Calvin pitched another
good game, alth pugh he surprised his Oldest
acquaintances by giving three bases on balls
in succession and forcing in a run. This
was, indeed, something remarkable for
Jeems. The fielding behind him was once
more brilliant, and the only error credited
TO the team was a highly excusable one
made BY Bierbauer in irving to effect a
double play. He made bad throw and a
run scored on account of the throw. Alto
rether the home team put up a splendid
game.
In the first inning Miller started off by
knocking grounder to Schoch.
