How the PortIands Beat the LoweIls. o to
S-Catcher Hayes Missing.
Had it not been for Farrell S errors yes
terday the Lowells would have won the
game easily. He made four glaring ones
and the usually good natured cGunnigle
was as mad as wet hen. Farrell was
sent to centre. The Lowells out batted
the Portlands but the Browns put up
wonderful fielding game, Rogers's great
playing and three lightning double plays
by Clymer, Smith and Rogers being the
features. McCauley caught finely and
Meagher put up great game. Farrell
led the hitting, though the Portland boys
had their eyes on the ball all the time.
Willie Mains has been subsisting on
flour, milk and eggs lately and that
makes good batter. AS usual Honest
jack Burke was there with his three
''leedle hts
Cudworth was i'll and couldn't play so
Guianasso took his place.
That the Lowells are not cutters was
illustrated in the fright they gave the
Portlands in the last inning. A lightning
double play saved the Po1tlands, for the
visitors were pounding Klobedanz all
over the lot.
The Lowells opened up with Guianasso
getting a pass to first Farrell sent him
up peg by single and it looked like
runs, but o. Brien hit to Clymer and a
double play resulted. Halves flied out
and not run came in. The Portlands
scored in the second. Mains went up to
the bat and made vicious lunge at the
ball.
s'What are you swinging Willie?"
yelled Mac from the coaching line, "a
crowbar?" Willie said nothing but hit
the ball out for two bases. Platt sacri-
feed him to third and he scored on
Farrelps tumble, of Deady's hit.
Portland, 1; Lowell, 0.
After Rogers had flied out in the third
| Burke smashed the ball for single, and
| Farrell fumbled Burns's hit. Gentle
William came up with his 'scrowbar"
and knocked the ball to the centre field
fence, scoring Burke and Burns. Clymer
caught slow curve and hit the ball for
a pretty double.
The Lowells got in their first run in
this inning when Henry Burns got a
! single and was forced to second on
Guianasso's base on balls. He stole
third and scored on FarrelFs single.
| Portlands, 4; Lowells, 1.
The Portlands forged ahead in the
fifth. With one out Burns hit for a
single and Mains was given first on balls.
Clymer pounded air and Farrell fumbled
Platt's hit while Burns scored. Klobe-
danz cleared the bases by drive for
| three bases to the extreme left field cor
ner. MeGunnigle entreated his men to
do something SO Meagher, knowing that
salary day was near, hit out for single
and scored on Henry Burns's two Dagger.
Portland. Z; Lowell, o.
In the sixth Smith raped out three
Dagger and as usual Burke brought him
in with a single over second. Not to be
outdone Macs men made a move after
two men were out Whitney singled,
Meagher hit for two bases, McCauley
did the same and two earned runs was
the result.
| Portland, s; Lowell, 4.
In the Fights Smith singled and stole
second, Rogers flied out, Burke laced
out rafting single and the man who
said Jack ought to be in the hospital
went out to the sidewalk and kicked a
dog. Burns's nice hit scored Smith.
The fun came in the ninth. The
Lowells had their last half and wanted
five runs to tie. Klobedanz sent Nc
Cauley to first on balls and McGunnigle
nearly had the st. Vitus dance when
Meagher hit for two bases scoring Nc.
Cauley. Henry Burns hit for a base and
Mac yelled. Guianasso followed Burns S
example, and Mac screeched, as four
runs had been scored after Farrell had
singled. A great double play stopped
the fusilade. O'Brien and Farrell were
doubled by Clymer, Smith and Rogers.
Halves struck out and the game was
over.
