Manager Burnham. today engaged
Pitcher Daniels. recently OF Portland. He
occupied the box for the Colts and pitched
good ball. He Is in fine form and will be
q valuable addition to the team.
Buffers work was great, his throwing
to bases being very fine lilo was handi-
capped by Connor's failure to hold thrown
balls, allowing several men to reach sec
ond safely, when good work on his part
would have stopped them.
Bean played q brilliant game at short
field. Kelley covered first base in superb
style.
Sullivan was easily the star of the day
for Portland, his hitting being one OF the
surprises of the season. In itself it was
almost enough to win the game.
