1t would be an insult to the intelligence
of the public to attempt to offer an ex
cuse for the second defeat of the Shenan
doah state league team by the Pottsvilles
at the Trotting park yesterday. There is
no excuse to offer. Our people were in
clined to be lenient with the home club
for its work on Wednesday on account OF
the conditions set forth in our report ol
yesterday, but to suffer such ham fat
plays as marked parts of vest terday's
game is beyond all human endurance.
At two stages of the game the siJuatiou
was absolutely ridiculous. The Potts
villes had the creamery men completely
at their mercy.
Ehe first chapter of the tale OF wo
opened when the first Pottsvllle batter
went to the plate in the first il nj X
Davis got his base on Clark's error, went
to second when Stanhope got his base OIL
balls, scored ON passed ball. Tigh,
brought Stanhopa home with three
bagger and scored when Ellis got his first
on another error by Clark. Ellis got to
third on passed ball and reached home
on hit by Fox after Fuller struck oul
and Hill went out on a fly to Gill. The
Pottsvilles were retired by Eustace strik
ing out. From the above summary it is
easy to understand why the spectators
who were not many, became disgusted at
the start of the game.
The second inning only added gall to
the dose. Anderson, the first batter, got
to first on balls, advanced to second on a
wild pitch and scored on third error by
Clark Davis also scored.
The home team started out in the third
inning in a manner that aroused some
hope. At an wholly unexpected move
ment Kennedy banged the ball out for II
three bagger. Little also found the ball,
but was thrown out at first by Tighe
Gill stepped to the plate and banged out
another three bagger, Kennedy scoring,
and Gill getting home on McGarYey's IS
strong hit. McGarvey and Clark went
out before any more advantage could be
gained and the Pottsvilles were prevented
from scoring in the last half of the
inning.
In the fourth inning the progress Of the
/ game became a burlesque when the
/ Pottsvilles went to the bat. Nevins either
went TO pieces, or was very much dis
couraged. Davis and Stanhope got their
base on balls. Tighe went out on fly to
Kennedy, and then the POttsvilles com
lmenced the slaughter. Ellis started with
a hit and Fuller followed with one. Hill,
Fox and Eustace each made a three
bagger and Davis, the tenth man, made a
hit. A total of seven runs was made
before the side was retired, eleven men
Having presented themselves at the plate.
In the sixth inning Merriman got this
base ON balls snd was bro1ght home by
Sewers two bagger, making the third and
last run for the home team. The Potts
yilIes scored their two runs in this inning
on an error each by Clark and McGarvey
and a hit by Davis.
In the seventh inning the run was
scored on two good hits by Fuller and
Fox and the last run was made on q
single by Anderson and double by Davis
In the ninth Nevins went out on a fly to
Fuller, McCOach made hit, Kenneo.
went out on fly TO Eustace, Little made
a hit, and the game ended by Gill strik.
