IT Was A GREAT SERIES.
The Fourth Game of Baseball Was
Another Exciting One.
Sacramento Splits Even With the San
Franciscos on the Series
Saturdays Games.

Sacramentans have evidently come to
the conclusion that they have first-class
baseball team to wear their colors this
season.
The series with San Francisco which
closed with Yesterdays game at Snow
flake Park was without doubt the best
set of games witnessed in Sacramento in
years. Anyone who would find fault
with any one of the four games must in
deed be hard to please.
The Sacramentos won again yesterday,
thus quitting even with the visitors on
the series. They won with bigger mar
gin than they did on Saturday, but still
nobody left the park until the last San
Franciscan was put out, for the metro
politans are hard losers and are notorious
for making what Manager Harris calls
Garrison finishes" But the finish didn't
go yesterday.
Harper pitched for the home team and
never pitched better game in his life.
He only gave the visitors tour hits. Balsz
did the twirling for the visitors and did
quite well, but he suffered by comparison
with Harper.
Neither side scored in the first inning,
but in the second there were some fire.
works. In Sacramento's half Of this
inning McHale was safe on Spies mutf of
high fly. Roberts then sent one down
into left field near the foul line. Levy, the
San Franciscos' left fielder, tried hard to
get the ball but before he
reached it it struck the ground
and bounded over the fence. hoberts
scored home run, and McHale came in
from first. 1t was one OF the luckiest
hits ever seen. Those who followed
these two players in this inning We're put
out before reaching first base. The;Visit-
ors in their half of the second managed
10 get one man across the plate. Carroll
was first up and he was not in good
humor. lie became angry al the umpire
and disputed the latterS decision on a
ball. 81 could see the plate from here"
said the umpire. Jaw, you can't see
nothin'," replied Carroll, hotly. and with
that he 'swatted' the next Tall for two
bases, thereby causing Manager Harris to
remark that hereafter he would endeayor
to keep Carroll mad all the time. Me-
CURE went to first on balls, and Power
struck out. Pretzel Ebright sent a long
one into right field, ana Carroll scored
after the ball had been caught by Nc
Hale. McGdire was put out at third,
however.
In the third inning Mannasau added to
his record as a hard-hitter by whacking
the ball for home run and was rendered
an ovation by the grand stand. None OF
the other SacranIentans could score, how
ever, although some good batting was in
dulged in. The visitors scored nothing.
No tallies were made by either side i'll
the fourth or fifth innings. In the sixth
the visitors made one on Levy's three
Dagger and Works single. They would
have had another had not Mannasau
made circus catch of McGuire's long
fly. The local team goose-egged in this
inning.
The Sacramentos got the best of the
'luclly seventh" scoring two runs to the
visitors one. SWEET was first up and he
went out on pop fly TO Sharp. Harper
and Mannasau followed with good singles.
Sweeney hit to Mcclure and on the lat
ter's low throw home Harper and Man
nassau scored. Whitehead was thrown
out first and klopf went out on a lily.
In the visitors half of the seventh Car
roll went out on fly TO McHale. Spies
took first on balls, stole second, and
scored on wild pitch. Balsz flew to
Roberts and Sharp was thrown out at
first.
The home team got another run in the
eighth through errors by Mcclure, San
Franchises shortstop. That was their
asst run. The visitors could do dothing
1 either the eighth or ninth.
There was good crowd in attendance,
ID as there were numerous opportuni-
s throughout the game for lung eXer-
G, il can be imagined that there was
ne noise. The quality of baseball that
put up during the series will I'M
.btedly insure boom for the game in
IS city.
Following is the score.
