St. Paul daily globe. [volume] (Saint Paul, Minn.) 1884-1896, 1895-08-02

three innings, which, as stated, We're
played in fifteen minutes. In the
fourth, fifth and sixth innings, the
Brewers sent but four men to bat each
time, and no one got beyond the sec
ond bag.
The Saints made their first run in
the fourth, and the score nearly made
the people frantic with delight, for it
was apparent that there was not going
to be such a torrent of runs as there
had been in the last six or eight games
played here previous to yesterday.
O'Rourke swung his willow wide and
pushed the ball into right for a base,
following it up almost Immediately
with daring and successful steal of
second. Charlie Irwin then drove the
ball singing through Taylor's legs at
short, and while the ball was rolling
out into center field, O'Rourke man
aged, by rapid running, to cross the
plate. Stratton was thown out at first
by the pitcher and George died at first
on a short drive to Sharpe at second.
The Saints scored another in the fifth
on hard hitting and excellent ball
playing. Camp led off with a hard
on Picketts swift drive over the sec
ond bag. Burns came to bat, while
the crowd applauded in anticipation
of a long drive, but Burns had other
views, and he sacrificed with a little
bunt, advancing Camp and Pickett to
third and second respectively. 1t was
then that
LITTLE EDDIE BOYLE
got his eye on the ball, and showed it
swiftly into long left for a double,
Camp coming home. The fly was
muffed, but the ball was fielded in in
time to prevent Pickett from advance
ing. An instant later Boyle was caught
mapping at second and thrown out by
Weaver, who made a handsome throw
from the plate. O'Rourke fouled out
to Weaver and ended the agony.
In the sixth, the Saints went in to
cinch their lead, and some hard hitting
resulted, the inning ending with five
| more runs added to the two made in
the fourth and fifth. Charlie Irwin
swiped the ball along the ground over
third bag for a double. He might
have been thrown out at second had
it not been for his unusually sharp
base running. Stratton worked Ste
phens for base on balls, and George
raped a bright single just far enough
into right field to send Irwin home
from second. Camp followed with a
good single to right and Stratton
| scored. Pickett then drove the ball
sharply past Sharpe, and George and
Camp crossed the plate, while Pickett
stopped at second. Burns hit to short,
and it is claimed that Pickett inter-
| fered with a player while running.
| Umpire Cantillion saw merit in the
claim and allowed it, declaring Pickett
out Boyle then singled TO right, and
Jimmy Burns, by the prettiest slide
ever seen here, passed safely over the
plate, in a cloud of dust, which en-
veloped both Burns and Weaver.
Weaver had the ball in time to get
! Burns out, but the slide was too much
| for the Brewers willy backstop. Pep
| per flew out to center, and then
| O'Rourke hit the leather into center for
a double The side was retired, how
| ever, and O'Rourke was left on Sec
ond, when Irwin flew out TO Sharpe.
In the eighth, with only four men
at bat, the Saints scored their eighth
| and last run. Pickett hit over the right
| fence for two bases and advanced to
| third on Burns out to first. Boyle
flew out to long center and Pickett
came home on the play. Pepper died
at-first and retired the side
LONGS HOMER.
The Brewers scored their first two
runs I'M the seventh, both being earned.
| Nicol, the first man at bat, died on
strikes, then Taylor dropped single
| into center and came home when
| Long sent a home run drive over the
right fence. Sharpe flew out to Irwin
| and the mighty Twitchell famed the
| air three times. The Brewers did not
score in the eighth, and the crowd be-
gan pouring out on the grounds, think
| ing the game would be over in a min
ute. But it was right here that Mil
Waukee spurted and came near tying
! the score, making four runs. They
| took on clever batting streak, but it
| wasn't hard enough to win. Twitchell
| led off by getting life on four bad ones,
| Nicol followed with a, single to right,
| and Taylor sent Twitchell home with
a nice drive into the left garden for a
! base. Long hit to Camp and died at
| first; then, Baker with a mighty smash
| sent the ball screaming into left for a
double, and George threw it wild to
| the plate, Nicol and Taylor scoring
and Baker going to third. Baker
scored while Stephens was being re-
tired at first. Klopf died at first on a
! grounder to Pepper, and the game was
off. The score:
