smiled, and smiled, and
smiled. He was count
ing gate receipts and
thinking OF the bright. new game which had
just been added 10 his collection. And as
the happy thought kept stealing softly back
and back again, again he smiled, and
smiled.
The game itself was not a particularly
Brilliant one. but still 1t was game, and it
has just as much effect on the percentage
as though 1t had been errorless. Not such
bad game was ii eli ther. There were sew
eral situations which were full of promise
and therefore exciting to contemplate, and
they worked out in very Interesting shape
occasionally
There was one change which it will be
necessary TO note in passing. Mr.. Nc
Donald has handed a release TO the polka
dot cap and signed a small maroon n affair,
which is more on par with the rest of his
regalia. He was reluctant to part with the
polka dot, but il was so loud, he says, tn at
1t was difficult for the people in the grand
stand to hear the orations, which have now
become feature of the games, and so he
let il 60.
Captain Ebright resurrected the old dis
eussion Of where the pitcher should stand
just as the game got nicely started, and for
a minute 1t looked as though the crowd
would have to submit to another Joint
debate on the subject, until it suddenly
occurred to some one that Mr.. Spulding's
little book could settle it. Then the game
went merrily on.
Roach, the southside ihrower, was in the
box again for Los Angeles. He pitched a
fairly steady game, striking out two men
and allowing two or three base hits and one
nnnhll "a ali f1,,r oil
maze off his delivery.
Balsz, who won out the game for San
francisco, pitched those same speedy balls
little Wild at times. but generally effactive,
Tor which he Is so justly celebrated. In the
last OF the seventh, however, he allowed
the Angels 10 make four of their seven runs
after TWO men were out By allowing three
men TO go 20 first on balls and tunking Me
Cauley under the arm with the ball. The
tnnk caused Papa TO emit something about
half way between a grunt and a screen.
and which might easily have been mistaken
for the wall of a lost soul
Van Dyke, over in the left pasture for the
Angels, added some luster to his slightly
taTnlshed reputation by making a circus
catch or two and holding everything that
came his way. But Van Dyke is not a
graceful fielder by any means; his manner
OF getting in under high fly reminds one
quite foTcibly of a bear dance, but this can
all be forgiven if be will continue to eat up
y
MIR. J. Peck Sharp. the station agent at
stOpOver No. 2, did not seem to be in his
usual frame OF mind yesterday. On two
occasions y hen easy ones were batted down
to him, and after in;erceDtiDg The sphere on
each occasion, he got into a disgFaceful
alteration with his feet and the runner
beat the bali out. These affairs both appear
Ia the table below in the ''E' column.
Mr. Spies had his throwing arm along,
and during the game he gave it little exer

Donald.
San Francisco drew blank in the first
inning and Los Angeles got one Wright

sent up sky-Diercing foul, and after 1t
was back in Spies hands Wright left for
the second station. Mccarthy singled and
ditto Hutchinson. GlenalYin sent out a
long fly to Carroll, which both Papa and
Hutchinson tried to beat in, but Papa was
called out at the home place because neither
of his feet came in contact with the plate.
The second engagement was quite the
reverse OF the previous one When 1t was
over San Francisco had four life-siZe tai
lies and downhill grade for the remainder
Of the game. The inning started out with
a single, contributed by Work. Sharp flew
out to Van Dyke. Then Power lugged in
a three-base bit and Speer went out on a fly
to Van Dyke, while Power came in.
and was rewarded with base on balls.
Balsz singled and Mcguire did likewise,
sending the ball out TO Van Dyke. In the
course OF time Mr. Van Dyke decided what
was best TO do in the premises and sent the
ball sailing mp 10 third base. According to
all authorities there should be man on
each base to catch the ball when 1t comes
there, hut in this particular instance there
was nobody there. The ball went madly on
past the base, under the players bench and

Balsz scored. Mcguire had reached third
during the melee, but EOTight retired the
side with fly to Lytle.
Los Angeles made a score in the fourth

The remainder of the inning was very un-

The cluster OF four plucked by the south
erners came in the seventh. They also
came after two men were out. Lohman
and Roach both went out at first. Wright |
hit to Sharp and a shameful scene ensued.

was, alas. too late.
