The San Antonlos and Browns Play
An Interesting Game.


An Interesting Game.
Had the local rooters had an idea
what kind of game the West End
Browns and the newly formed San
Antonios had in store for them
they would have turned out to a
man. 1t was the belief that two
scrub teams were going to play
and that a scrub game would be
witnessed and, therefore, over one
half of San Antonio's dyed-in-the-
wool baseball fans remained at
home or tried to find a place
of amusement elsewhere. The
San Antonio baseball pub
lie has no doubt witnessed some
fine exhibitions of the great Amer
lean game and can readily tell a
good game when it sees one. AL
though yesterdays exhibition was
not marked by what may be justly
termed superior ball playing,
it was a game that gave perfect
satisfaction to everyone present.
1t was one Of those close and eX-
citing contests that has made
baseball so popular. San Antonio
went first to bat and was white
washed the first two innings. The
Browns went out without a
run in their first time at
bat. In the second the Browns
scored a run, which was tied by
San Antonio in the third. San An
tonic scored again the fourth. The
score was two to one until the
Browns sixth, when they got
man in, tieing the score. The
Browns tailed again in the sew
enth and twice in the eighth, max
ing it ) to 2. In the ninth, after
two hands were out, San Antonio,
by punching a few hits had three
men to cross the plate, thus max
ing another tie. The Browns in
the last inning filled the corners,
after one out. The San Antonios
played in close. A ball was hit to
short, who threw it home, forcing
the runner on third out. The catch
er, instead of throwing the ball
to first for double play,
and thus retiring the side,
touched the runner, leaving the
Browns with only two out and
two men on bases. The next bat
ter up met the ball for clean
single, bringing in the winning
run, the final score being to D for
the Browns.
1t was a game worth anybody's
money and no one showed signs Of
disappointment. OF course, if that
player had done so and that player
so, the score may have been differ
ent, but in baseball, as in the game
of life, mistakes are not realized
until they are made.
NOTES OF THE GAME.
The pitching of Ed. Martin was
of high order, as was also that OF
Martin Wright.
Charles Martin acted as receiver
for the San Antonios and did we'll.
Manuel Coy did good work be-
hind the bat for the Browns.
Boubel is a good fielder and
hitter, but needs improvement in
running. Had he been faster on
the bases he could have easily
scored twice.
Garcia umpired and not a kick
was made.
Charles Newman is good fielder
and sticker, but too eager to steal
bases. A few more games and he'll
be all right.
Another game will be played
next Sunday.
Will Huston is a lad the San
tones are after and must have him
if he does come high.
"Crip" says: 81 couldn't mascot
for San Antoine right, because |
didn't have me uniform and me
medal. But I'll be all right next
Sunday"
There are enough players in San
| Antonio to beat the Bostons.
The Browns are we'll uniformed
and have a hot team.
Anyone would believe Mosebach
had Joined the A. r. T., from the
number of times he went out on
strikes.
