WILD PITCHING AND ERRORS.
The Washingtons Drop Another Game a,
st. Louis.

The WashingtOns Drop Another Game at
st. Louis.
The Washingtons hit hard enough to win two
games yesterday, but the box fatally weak
and men sent to first on balls brought in their
scores. Under the rules these runs are not
earned and, therefore. do not appear in the
score chargeable to the pitcher. The players
who are charged with six errors are conse-
quently blamed for the ten unearned runs Of
the twelve made by st. Louis The local play
ers have suffered more or less all this season
from poor work in the box, which the tabulated
score has failed TO reveal. The WashingtOns,
too, made more than their fair share of the
errors yesterday. Six is too many. As to the
runs-this is how Washington was beaten.
Caruthers first on balls and took third on
Brodie's hit past Richardson, Radford mutfing
the throw TO catch him.
Caruthers and Brodie scored on Gleason 8
single. Two runs
Crooks reached first on Abbey's tumble, stole
second and scored on wild pitch. Glasscock
hunted safely, stole second and scored on Car
rolls sacrifice. Two runs.

second.
Briggs took first on Radford's tumble.
Glasscock was given first on balls.

ley scored.

scored Five runs.
Singles by Carroll and Brodie and Dowd's
wild throw and good base stealing gave St.
Louis three runs and the game in the ninth.
