intense delight of the bleachers.
Charlie Irwin started the enthusiasm
by a long clean drive over center
field for three bases. He might
have made it home run, but was
mt taking any chances, and was
satisfied to stop on the third bag.
1t was one of the prettiest hits ever
seen on the grounds, and he was
abundantly cheered. Stratton then
caught the fever, and pushed a sin
gle against the right field fence, and
Irwin came home. Kraus couldn't
so he took his base on balls, while
! Camp busted himself by shooting
the sphere over the fence for a
double, sending Stratton in and
kraus to third. George hit the ball
hard into center, and Kraus scored
before Gilks could get it in. Null
lane died at first and Camp went on
to third. Pepper was raped on the
hip and went to first, and stole sec
ond with perfect ease. When the
ball was returned to Roach at the
plate it fell from his hands and
rolled away a foot or two, Camp
improving the opportunity to steal
home. Boyle died at first and the
trouble was off. Not content with
this lead, the Saints took two more
in the fourth, and it was well that
they did, as it was subsequently
proved. After O'Rourke had fouled
out, Irwin was hit and took first.
Stratton hunted and brought Irwin
home, aided considerably by a wild
throw by Goar to first. Camps two
Dagger sent Stratton in, but the fun
came to an end when George died
at first. It was now the
TURN OF THE PIRATES r,
to do something, and they went in
evidently to hammer Pepper out Of
shape. They began it in the fifth
inning. Nops hit the ball against
the right fence for a single, and it
would have been a double had it
not been for remarkably fine field
ing by Camp. Goar struck out, and
Conner hit to short, the ball being
juggled just long enough to let him
to first. Gilks showed a pretty sin
gle into left over the bag and on
the ground, and Nops came home
Then Weddige drove long double
into left on the ground, and Con-
nors and GillAs trotted over the plate.
The game was growing exciting, and
the people enjoyed it.
The Saints were a trifie confused
to the rapid cracking of the leather,
and the visitors were in a fever of
hits. Gallagher was right in it,
and he sent a screamer over the
fence for two bases, sending We'd
dige home. Roach then hit hard in
the air, and the fly was eaten up
by Irwin after a handsome run.
Carney thumped a single into right
center, but Hughey died at first and
wound up the sport. The visitors
hadn't recovered from their fever in
the following inning, for they scored
twice more. After Nops had struck
out, Goar singled to center. Con-
nor got his base on balls, and while
fooling around that bag he and Null
Conner showed him off the bag, and
caused him to miss the ball, and for
little while there was some jan
Cling, which ended in smoke. Gilks
hit a slow one to short, and Irwin
couldn't get it over in time. We'd
dige hit hard to Pepper, and the
ball struck the Iatters hand and
bounded out.
THE BASES WE'RE FULL
and a hit was needed, but it never
came, although while putting Gal
! lagher out at first the Saints allowed
! Connor to score. That ended the
run-getting for the visitors, and they
were never near third after that
The score was now tie, and the
excitement was great. But the anx-
iety ended as it began. In the sew
enth, the Saints scored three by
timely hitting and errors. Camp hit
to Conner, and the latter fumbled
it. George dropped a neat single
into center, and Comiskey, who had
taken Mullane's place after the
squabble, showed the ball against
the fence for a single. The bases
were full. Pepper had a great op-
portunity, and he hit one to Gal
lagher too fast to field, Camp and
