DESTINY AGAINST rs

The second game was very well played,
ana the only drawback to it was that the
home team did not come off the field with
victory. Our star Of destiny did not lead
that way, however. and thanks to the god OF
luck and perfect fielding, Louisville won the
contest
The Senators did not score until the
seventh inning. when the visitors had five
tales to their credit, and when it looked
good deal as if the home team would be
whtewashed.
In the last inning a rally was made and
two runs were scored, breaking the goose
egg.
Mcclure. the first man up, led off WITH
a double and was followed by Sclbach With
a single a base on balls to Cartwright

game Pitcher Mcakn became ratified and

the emergency, and went out from Collins

SOME REMARKABLE PLAYS
As it was then getting too dark for play,
Umpire Murray called the game, ard all
chances for a victory for the home team
We're ended.
There were two very remarkable plays
made, one by three Of the visiting players
and eaten by Tom Brown. 1t happened
in the sixth inning, when Clarke was at
the bat and Holmes was on second.
Clarke caught one of Boswell's speedy
curves on the end of his wagon tongue and
drove the ball toward deep left field
with terrific force.
Brown and Lush rushed for the ball,
and ii seemed an impossibility for either
of the players to get near it.
Brown, however, by a magnificent burst
OF speed passed Lush, and, as the ball sailed
over his head. and while he was on the
dead run, reached out his arm and grabbed
it, 1t was a miraculous catch and Nc
Closky was heard to utter something that
does not appear in the good book.
The other feature was brilliant triple
play. by Meakin, Hassamer and Collins, in
the first inning. Brown started with a
two base hit, and Joyce secured his base on
balls
Abbey drove a slashcr on the line tC>
Pitcher Mcakin. The latter could not get
out of the way Of the ball, and it stuck in
his hands.
Brown and Joyce of course thought the
pitcher would drop the ball. AM started
to advance to the next bases. They were
easy outs, as Meekin brew - Hdssamcr,
who touched first base and then threw
the bah to Collins, who touched second
base, completing the play.
BOSWELL FULL OF SPEED
Pitcher Boswell is gall, wiry, ath-
leticlooking young man, and # there aIs
any twirlcrs in the League who Lave
more speed than he showed they have
not been seen in this city.
In fact he used so much force that Nc
CURE dropped the ban on several oca-
sions. Boswell was very wild, but held
his nerve all the time, and struck out six
men. Meakin, the new Louisville pitcher,
also did good work. Outfielder Lush S
a very speedy player, and his errors ia
the two games, are cXCusable, because OF
| a broken finger. For the same reason
his batting effectiveness is impaired.
The scores were made as follows by Louis
vile: IN the third inning Shugart singled
and Holmes was given first on a hit by
pitcher. Clarke sent up a high foul which
Mcclure had to run up against the grand
stand to capture.
Hassamer, TO show that he was still
| slugger, doubled to right scoring Shu-
CART and Holmes.
Collins flied out to Abbey, and Get;inger
struck out. One more run was made in
the fifth, after two men were out, through
