The evening herald. [volume] (Shenandoah, Pa.) 1891-1966, 1893-07-31

from Pottsville, Tamaqua, Mshanoy City,
Girardville and Ashland were present in large
numbers.
The game was an excellent one throughout
and everybody felt we'll rewarded for the trip
to the park. As the home team had been
unable to secure regular pitcher Setley was
brought on from Bloomsbury, and he worked
like Trojan up to the sixth inning, pitching
good ball and putting up good game gener-
ally until the strain on his arm and close
decision by the umpire broke him up and he
went to pieces rapidly.
The Giants were full of capers when they
went upon the diamond and their practice
was as good as any farce comedy ever seen
upon stage The great crowd alternately
INDUCED in roars of laughter and storms Of
applause and the Cubans seemed TO enjoy
themselves. When the home team went to
bat in the first inning Fulmer, Martin and
Hickman were retired so quickly that many
of the spectators hardly had time to realize
that the game had started.
The Cubans remained longer at the bat,
but were neatly retired before they could
score. A. jackson got his base on balls, but
was thrown out by Messitt when he tried to
steal second. White went out on a fly and
o. jackson was left on second by C. Williams
going out ON Henry's throw to first.
No runs we're scored until the third inning,
when Fulmer started the ball with a three
| bagger. Martin got his base while the Giants
prevented the Tamaqua man from scoring.
Hickman went out at first by Grants throw
and Shaeffer got to the first bag on A. Jack
sons error. Setley then went to the plato
and banged the ball away out to left field,
sending in Fulmer, Martin and Schaeffer.
Setley reached third base when the ball was
being ielded in and tried to make a home
run, but was caught in making a dive and
when his hand was just few inches from the
scoring point. Shenandoah got two more
runs in before Henry was thrown out at first
They had two three baggers single and
base on balls in isinning and total of five
runs.
In the sixth inning the real sport developed
and therein lies the tale of the home teams
woe. The score at the beginning was to
against the visitors. Hickman went out on q
fly to right field and Shaeffer reached first on
A. Jackson's error. Setley went to the play
and after patiently waiting for good ball,
sent it with terrific force to the left field.
Setley got to second base when he learned the
referee had called foul" The pitcher went
back to the plate and struck out and the
manner in which he threw the bat aside
showed that he was in bad humor shaeffer
reached home before the inning closed and
nAsde the to o.
The Giants had picnic now. Setley's
arm, according to his own story, was "Out."
Two singles, three two bsggers and two bases
orSalls made tolal of six runs and tied the
score. In n,-shs sh.ss,- seventh fhAning the Giants
scored three more runs on four singles and
base on balls and the hopes of the home
team admirers dropped to zero. Heckman
took Setleys place in the box in the eighth
inning but the change was made too late,
and the retiring Of the home team In the
ninth sealed their doom. Many looked upon
setleys work in the sixth and seventh inning
with suspicion, but he protested after the
game that his arm had actually weakened.
