PHILLIPS PITCHED GREAT BALL,
And Terre Haute Piled Up Fourteen
Errors. Hence the Victory.

And Terre Haufe Piled Up Fourteen
Errors. Hence the Victory.
Manager Watkins and his candidates for
Championship honors came out of the
Northwest yesterday and celebrated their
return by walloping Terre Haute good and
bard For four innings the game was rath-
er pretty one. barring frequent Terre
Haute errors. but after that Indianapolis
scored In every inning. and 1t wasn't any
sort OF contest There was big crowd
out. and everybody shouted a welcome to
big Bill Phillips and Hogriever. The
fine work OF these recent additions to the
team was good 10 look at. and they came
In for large share of the applause. Hog
Fiever covered second base in place of
Caravan. who was called home by the
death of sister. and played the base like
. veteran. He also led the team in hit
ting. and his daring and successful base
running was one of the joyous features OF
the game. There are no longer any grunts
from the bleachers for this hustIing little
player. Such a sound would now be re-
garded as a sacrilege. and the offending
"bieacher'' would stand fair chance to
be mobbed- There are now nothing but
cheers for Hogriever, whose ability has
always been admitted but never apprecia-
ted until he donned an indianapolis uni
form Phillips pitched one of his old-time
mastery games. 1t looked natural to see
him foolins the enemy with those fast
curves of his, and the way he moved Car
ney's men down set the crowd wild. He
struck out eight, and in the fourth inning,
after Goar had reached first on Roat's FUN

him IN right that should have been easy

Hartman at third. and Goar apparently
had no liking for left field. Common played
