In the sixth Slater knocked short fly
to Fitzmaurice, who turned his ankle
when he started, but kept on, just reached
and held it and fell down. 1t looked as
if his ankle was sprained, but after a
little while he got up and went into the
game again.
M. Harrington made beautiful catch
in the sixth. He ran straight out behind
third base, after Shaffer's fly, and just
reached it in front of him after it came
over his head
O'Rourke don't look it but he can run
like fox. He started to steal second.
just as Magoon raped a hot grounder to
McDermott. When Kennedy got the ball
on first, O'Rourke was so near third that
it was useless to throw. He got two bases
on the sacrifice, but was left on third.
The champs got little mixed in
the eighth. Terrien was on first running
for Yerrick and Goodhart was on third.
Slater drove q hot one down to McDer-
mott, who headed off Terrien on his way
to second. Terrien stopped and Slater
was nailed at first. Then Kennedy threw
to eaten Terrien at second and threw into
left field and Terricn reached third.
Cray made some bad decisions yester-
day, quite few more than was at all
necessary or pleasant. The worst one was
in the eighth, when Goody nailed Fitz-
maurice at second as prettily as has been
done this season, yet Cray called him
safe.
Goodhart's scratch hit in the ninth was
amusing. 1t was high up in the air and
fell about twenty feet from home base.
1t struck the ground.
The cushions in the scorers stand are
a help as we'll as comfort Before, the
bench was a little high for the best
position in writing. Much obliged
Director Murphy If you could somehow
make people understand that the back of
the scorers seat belongs to that seat, and
is not footstool for the seat behind, you
would confer a still greater favor.
Doc Kennedy was decidedly off color
yesterday. Those big skilful hands of his
actually muffed one ball, fumbled an
other and threw another to the devil and
gone.
1t is very pleasing to see that Shaffer
has worked off that sftrance''. His work
was of high order.
