How Yesterdays Game
. !. Was Played.
Mr.. DEvERAUX's NEW VOICE.
The Pioneers Defeat the San Fran
ciscos by a Score of Seven
q. to Four.

. The fog bank which settled down over
the park Yesterday afternoon did not in
. terfere TO anv great extent with the ball
game. One of the largest crowds of the
season witnessed the game and saw Uncle
Reuben and his young men snatch the
ralfn of victory from the other fellows
The other fellows were the San Franchises
and a. Sharp.
Mr.. Sharp has been summering in the
vicinity of jackson Park. Chicago, and
Yesterday was his first appearance since
his return. He did not break any long
distance pedestrian records while making
his homeward pilgrimage. but he got here
lust the same. His ball-playiDg yester-
day was trifle frayed in spots. due, per-
haps, to the fact that he has not yet recov-
cred from the fatigue CT recent travel
He expects to recover his usual even stride
In few days.
Pop Swett's work behind the bat was
also little ragged, state of things very
g. uncommon for this old favorte. Pop is
now assisting in the good work of building
church over in Oakland, and he finds the
exertion of carrying shingles and fitting
jofss conducive to feeling of extreme
: lassitude. Otherwise he is feeling first
rate.
= Galindo-he of the fiery temper and

oud: base for the Pioneers, his place at
short being filed by Monahan. His diff
feFences with Horner during Saturdays
game nave all been patched up, also the
various sore spots on Mr.. Galindo's ana
tony.
Manager Gilbert's men led off with a
run. secured by hit each by Peoples and
NethercoIt aud an error by Munahan. The
I'd l., 49,. a
inning Crowley and Galindo hit safe, and
= were brought home by DeVeraux. who tore
of thTee-bagger to deep center. The
Pioneers increased this lead by one run in
the third, two 10 the fourth and two in the
sixth innings. The San Franciscos got
one in the fourth, one in the sixth and one
in the seventh. Their Inability to hit
DeverauX's inshoots was the principal
cause of their downfall. for on several
occasions when the bases were full, ami a
two-bagger or even safe hit would have
tied the score, the batter struck out and
relieved the side.
60 The most striking feature of the game
was DeveraIXS voice. Not even his
closest friends suspected before yester-
days game was called that the popular
pitcher had a voice worth speaking of.
But he has. Some time during the fourth
inning he wandered down to the cOacher's
box at third base and began coaching in
8 tone of voice that knocked the dust off
the chairs in the press stand. He spoke
in some foreign tongue, apparently, but
people far downtown as Baker street
. kHew ". that he was in the city. Another
iRctdent of the game worth mentioning
was. little exchange of civilities which
occurred in the seventh inning. Neither
colt made safe hli and while the ball
was being juggled between Galindo and
Monahan he attempted to steal second.
Bug,QDay was coaching, and during the
. TEN porary absence of Crowley from first
be stepped up closer to the bag. GaIindo
discovered Netherc0tt's intention and
threw The bali to ODay, whom he took TO
be Crowley. OF course. Bug let it 60 by
and then joined the excited group about
the umpire. After a jawing match which
lasted five minutes Neth+rcott was sent
back to first and tie game proceeded.
