NOW, PLAY BALL.

InaJ Gan Hlay Ball.
1t nece ssitated two scraps and
home run to break up he game of
baseball at San Pedro park be-
tween the SIM Antonio team and
the West End Browns yesterday
afternoon.
The Browns are yet young and
there's lots of space in their cram
iums which must be i'll led with
knowledge Of the great national
game ere they have a license to
pose as world. heaters. The Browns
are composed of popular
young men of this city,
who, however, play good
ball, and if they continue at the
present rate they will have team
that's hard to beat when they're a
little older and heavier. They
have been very successful thus far,
having defeated almost every
team they met. Their success
depends mainly upon the conf
dence they have in themselves
when they go upon the field. They
never think of defeat until the last
man is out and the small end of
the score is on their side.
But, as stated before, the
Browns have a great deal to learn
yet, and a few more games with a
team like the San Antonios will
tend to improve their baseball edu.
cation somewhat.
The San Antonio team put up a
good game, considering the little
practice they have had this season.
The team put up an exhibition Of
practice that was full Of snap and
ginger from the start. The boys
hit well, but were somewhat of at
the start, in both fielding and hit
ting. Toward the end they steadied
down, and after the second inning
not an error was made by the San
Antonios.
The San Antonios went to the
bat first and Phelan scored the first
run, which was on an error. The
Browns scored twice on errors
in their first. The San Antonios
scored twice in the fourth on er-
rors and the Browns failed to tally
again for the balance of the day.
Koerps made the first earned run
in the fifth. In the eighth and six
runs were scored, five Of them being
earned. Dewey, McAdoo, Hamil-
ton and Payne singled and dewey
and Mac scored. Garcia was hit
by a pitched ball and the bases
were full. Lockwood cleared the
corners with drive over the fence.
The Browns claimed it was a foul
and refused to work any more. The
umpire gave the game to the San
Antonios by score Of 9 to 0. The
score at that time was 10 to 2. 1t is
now claimed that the umpire had
$40 bet on the game, and that, as
the Browns could not have an
other umpire, they refused to play
against such odds.
The score of the game as sum-
married. is as follows: Earned
runs, San Antonio 8, Browns 0;
basehits, San Antonio 10, with
total Of Is bases Browns 2, Struck
out, by Van Ripper, 3; by Wright, 3.
Errors, San Antonio 3, Browns 8.
The features of the game were
the home run hit by Lockwood
when the bases were full, a sensa-
tional catch by Garcia and two
clever stops by Phelan.
The game was marred by two
disgraceful fights, one in the grand
stand and another on the ground
between a negro and a Mexican.
In neither disturbance was any
one hurt and the combatants were
Immediately parted.
