Minneapolis, s; Toledo, 7.
The locals won on the Minneapolis
grounds, but it was a close shave.
After holding the Blues down to two
runs in seven innings, Baker was bat
ted all over and out Of the lot in the
eighth for seven hits and five runs.
The Minneapolis team gave some
scholarly exhibitions of base running,
which cost them two or three more
runs, or the score would not have been
so close. There was no reason why
it should have been SO. GOar, whose
sanguinary name did not frighten the
locals at all, was treated to four safe
hits in the first inning, which gave
the locals lead of three, for Toledo
did not connect with Baker at all
until the second, when Carney made
a single. None Of the Buckeyes scored,
however, and in the third singles by
LaIly and Straus and a double by
Kuehne gave the locals another run.
There should have been some more,
but Joe StrauS was caught trying to
get home on throw from short CEN
ter. In the next inning two more runs
gave Toledo the ague, a base on balls
and two safe hits being the causes
or Mr.. Goar's undoing.
In the fourth the Buckeyes made
two safe ones, but neither scored, and
there were goose eggs all along the
lower line of the blackboard. A pretty
double play and a fly to Roach gave
Minneapolis a little of the Easter egg
business in the fifth, while, on the
other hand, a base on balls, a high
throw of Norman to second and a
safe hit by Weddige taught Roach.
the first Toledo man, the route around
the bases Norman tried to retrieve
himself by a safe hit, but his follow
ers were frdil and he died. Goar hit
the ball to the fence for two bases,
Nops hit safely and Toledo had an
oher run. Lally hit safely, but was
forced out at second, and another
double shut the locals out again. The
goose eggs were coming this way.
Toledo, however, saved one, too, and
in the eighth the locals were subjected
to another of those Ohio xxx brand
double plays, none genuine without
the firm name Of Connor and Carney
stamped on the wrapper.
1t was at this juncture that small
boy named Gallagher, who was picked
| up by Carney somewhere down the
line, opened choice assortment Of
fireworks which he bought at bar
gain sale in Toledo the night of Me-
mortal day. Goar had a rocket and
Nops had a Roman candle. Roach's
was only niger chaser, but it sput-
tered around long enough for Goar
to score, and Gallagher was ahead of
him. Dammon's had been wet, too,
and did not make show, but Hart
| man had avolcano which he had kept
dry under the bench all day, and when
| he set 1t off two more runs were
dropped, making the score tie. Three
before the stock ran out, and the Wis
ftors were one run ahead.
That reminded Billy Hulen of some
thing, evidently, for he had been try
ing all day to tire the pitcher out wait
ing for wild ones, but this time he let
off a warm two-star illuminant which
scorched the fence. Jim Burns hit a
fly to Nops, and iHulen stole second,
just to show that the game was not
over yet. Mighty Perry, who had
matched pennies with Bill Wilson to
see which should pay the barber for
shaving off their mustaches, was con-
tent with base on balls. Lally hit
grounder to Connor which rolled
along in the mud like a 40-car freight
train on a 100-foot grade, but at that
it was coming too fast for Connor,
and Hulen scored. Straus hi1 safely
and Perry scored the winning run,
as it turned out.
Martin Duke went into the box
then, and struck out Mr.. Nops. Some
