Three stralgnt.
The Dukes are not in it this week.
They will appear in green uniforms
before the month is out. in all probable
,ty. Yesterday the ex-leaders and twice
champions appeared in black and white
lust to change their luck. They day
previous they were attired in all white.
The change of costume did not have the
desired effect.
Duke Finn. in burst OF confidence,
stated to the HERALD baseball man that
the Dukes would appear in different
uniform at every game, even If he were
compelled to buy yellow costumes. II
the Dukes would only stay down in the
southern citrus belt for month, the
chances are that they would be obliged
to wear as many different colors as the
scripture says were contained in Joseph g
coat.
The Duke OF Santa Clara is not a
happy man. He doesn't mind fair
mixing OF things, but the three straight
is more than the naughty gentleman
from San Jose can bear up under. If
the Duke should lose the next two
games, there will be a gnashing of teeth
in the pennant winning city OF 1891.
The game yesterday was attended by
about 1900 people. The grand stand
looked bower OF loveliness. The
pretty girls OF Los Angeles were out in
numbers and they lent eclat to the oc.
casion with their smiling faces, stunning
costumes and one hundred and one
questions. There are more undesir-
able things in this world than answer
ing the numerous questions propounded
by the society young lady of
/, Los Angeles who is attending a
baseball game for the first or second
time, but when dainty miss asks in all
candor why the umpire does not bat
well, it is time to switch off and tell
something about the game.
Corner lots are at the disposal of
Jimmy Stafford.
Townsites can be obtained by McCau-
ley, Hasamaear or Newman by only ask
ing for them.
It was great old game. There was
plenty of old-fashioned hitting and
enough excitement and uncertain
ty to keep the enthusiasts at
boiling point for just about
two hours. The game was won and lost
a couple OF times. San Jose knocked
Balsz out OF the box and Los Angeles
knocked out Lookabaugh. Hits were as
numerous as tips on the American
Derby, and when the official scorer made
up his totals it was shown that the
base hits. which included two home
and twenty-five men had made the

The Angels opened up in their usual
modest manner by securing four runs
in their initial essay. Wright led
off with hit and Tredway
trotted down on balls and McCauley's
drive to center field brought in the first
tally. Hasamaear got his base on balls,
but Tredway was forced out at the home
plate on Stafford's swat.
The Dukes then made disastrous at
tempt to catch Stafford off fret. cooley,
in trying for the ball fell down, Nc
Cauley scoring. Newman's drive
brought in two more runs, and when
the bell rang out four tallies there was
plenty of applause.
The Dukes made one in their first
time up. Ebright got his base on balls,
and finally Tailed on wild pitch.
To solidify matters, the Angels added
three more runs to their score in the
second. Balsz led off with a two-bagger.
Wright felfa victim to Denny. Ebright
presented Tredway with fret base by
fumbling one sent down in his direc.
tion. Balez scored on Pops drive to
center field. Tredway Tailed on wild
pitch, and McCauley came home on
Hasamaear's smash which Stallings did
not get. tp.
The Dukes got in another tally in the
second. 1t was home run contribu-
tion from Jerry Denny, and magnifi-
cent drive it was over the left field fence
and clean over the fifteen-foot wire
screen. Denny was literally applauded
and an admirer threw him bright sil-
yer dollar.
The score at the beginning of the
third was to 2 in favor of the home
team, and the game appeared to be all
over but the shouting. The Angels
failed TO connect, but the Dukes got in
another tally. 1t was. another home
run offering. This time it was Everett
who knocked the sphere to the center
field, Rasty Wright losing sight of the
ball. Newman discovered the Spslding
article, but too late to head off Everett
in his wild career around the bases.
In the fourth two Angels had their
wings clipped, but they still managed to
get in one run and might have had two
If Hasamaear had not tried to stretch a
three-bagger into home run.
Quite change came over the game in
the fifth and Balsz was literally
slaughtered. The spectators watched
the bombarding with bated breath.
One Duke after another came up and
banged out singles and doubles at sweet
will. Balsz had hardly time to get his
breath before another Duke was up
swinging his club, while the coachers
We're earning a slice of their salary.
Seven Dukes had scored and Jimmy
Stafford went in to pitch, Newman COM
ing in to second, while Balsz was rele-
gated ia the right garden. Only one Duke
had been retired, but little Jimmy
stopped the stampede, and the two next
men were out in short order. Harper
was now substituted for Lookabaugh.
The score stood 10 to 5 in favor OF the
Dukes. They did not remain in the
lead very long, however, as the Angels
got in two in the sixth, thus tieing the
scoring. f&
The Dukes failed to make another tally
during the game, while the Angels put
a mortgage on the contract by smashing
out five runs in the seventh. It all hap
pened after two men had been sent to
the bench and two strikes had been
called on Tredway. Wright got to fret on
being hit by the pitcher. Tredway got in a
two-bagger, and both scored on old
Pops drive to the center field. HASA
