Referring to Mondays game at Spring.
field the Republican of that city says:
Belts can be classed as misfortune for
Springfield. He did remarkable feat
yesterday in pitching eighteen consecutive
innings. and winning both games, includ-
ing shut-out. Belts looks like one of
Palmer Cox's Brownies in the pitchers
box, but he does his work WE'LL as the
hp hax
good many times. His left-handed shoots
look easy enough to hit, but they seem to
be very deceptive. In the first game he
was particularly effective, allowing
Springfield but four hits, two Of these In
the first inning. During the rest of the
eight short innings Springfield could get
but two hits. one of these of the scratch
order 1t was risky too put him in for the
second game, and for an inning or two It
looked as though Springfield would hit him
hard enough to win the game. But after
being hit safely four times In the second
inning he settled down to work again and
allowed the Ponies" but three more hits
in the seven innings"
