And Against the State League
Champions, Too
MULDER1G NO MULBERRY
After the Enemy Was in Full Possession
of the Camp he Routed Them-The
Harrlsburgs Had to Hustle-Tomsn Also
Did Excellent Work.

The largest crowd of the season wi t
messed the game between the Harrisburgs
and the home team at the Trotting park
and were treated to a series of surprises,
1t is safe to say that not a dozen of the
people who iourneyed to the park enter
tanned the slightest hope that the home
team would beat the champions OF the
state league and large majority of them
secuted the idea that the home players
would be able to make the contest a close
one, but the Shenandoahs not only made
the score close one, but made the game
a ten-inning one and came within a narrow
margin of winning
Contrary to expectations the manage
ment failed to have the construction of
the new grand stand completed on Satur-
day, but succeeded in getting up a sutli-
cient number Of rOOtless seats to accom-
modate a great number of people and
umbrellas did the rest
The game opened with the retirement
of the home team in short order and the
inning closed with a score of 1 to 0 in
favor of the visitors.
In the second inning the home team
surprised its most enthusiastic admirers
by making two singles, a two bagger and
a home run and rolling up score of six
runs, but the enthusiasm this created by
llt llhIElbuNTkS lbllOMluk II Nllu an
annihilation of Setley's delivery. They
pounded the Richmond fugitive for five
singles, a two bagger and two home runs
and transformed the score to l3 against 8,
twelve runs being made in this inning.
One would suppose that this should
have been sufficient to completely dis
courage the home team and drive most of
the spectators away in disgust, but
| only few of the latter went away and
| the players hastily proceeded to re-
| organize and evidently placed great faith
| in their showing in the first part of the
inning. Setley was sent to right field and
| Mulderig succeeded him in the box in
the third inning. Mulderig made
a splendid showing and held the
visitors down to eight hits in the last
eight innings.
The Harrisburgs did not score again
until the sixth inning, when they made
one more run and increased their score to
IA. Meanwhile the Shenandoahs had
| scored eight runs and held the lead by
one in the first half of the sixth.
After that it was nip and tuck. In the
| seventh the Harrisburgs secured a lead
of three runs by making the score II to
| II in their favor. In the eighth inning
the home team reduced the lead to two
and in the first half of the ninth made
| three runs and secured a lead of one. The
| Harrisburgs followed this up with three
runs and tied the score, making 90 to 20.
| They had an excellent opportunity here
| to end the game, two of the men being hit
| by pitched ball, one getting his base on
| balls and passed ball and two bagger
| helping the advantage, but the prompt
stops and acurate throws to first base OF
| Reilly, Toman and Ryan cut the scoring
off at three runs
In the tenth inning the spectators be
| trayed breathless expectation, but the
home team did not remain long at the
plate. Henry started out with a hit, but
was caught at second, Smith went out on
fly to centre field and the short stop
threw Brown out at first. An error by
| Ryan, and a wild pitch made the winning
run and the spectators left the ground
satisfied that they had received their
moneys worth because the home team
made one of the best uphill fights even
seen upOn the grounds. Score
