Notes of tI,,e Game.
Yesterdays victory makes the games
three all between Lewiston and Portland.
Today's games will break the tie if either
club wins both of them. OF couise
Portland expects to be that club. The
forenoon's game to be played here will
begin at ten O'Clock. KiIleen and Daniels
are down.to pitch for Portland, Mains
will probably be in the box for Lewiston.
Manager Garrity is expecting two new
pl ayers tomorrow. Delayer, formerly of
Nashua is expected to be here surely, and
Sibb i, short stop of much experience
and good reputation among the minor
leagues will possibly be on hand to take
Gills place.
Cannon will play right field today.
Dockerty was so disgusted at being taken
out of the game after only two innings
yesterday that he refused to play longer
and went home last night.
"Ped'' Webster did we'll in Spills place
yesterday, and his hitting, three with a
total of five, was gilt edged. He will play
today, as Spill has not yet recovered from
the tanning of his side in Bangor. He
dropped stitch.
Sullivan had Leblanc at his mercy yes
terday. 1t was very unusual to see the
big first baseman, who is generally fine
hitter, strike out four times in succession.
He was very wroth about it and so
chagrined that he actually looked dis
tressed.
Sullivan struck out nine men. He also
made splendid record with the bat, get
ting three bagger, two bagger and a
single When he does hit the ball, it al
ways has wings on it, and when he gets
started around the bases he has wings on
himself 1t is doubtful if there is another
man on the team who would have got
round to third base any quicker. on that
long hit.
The New England League games today
are, Lewiston at Portland in forenoon,
and vice versa in afternoon; Kennebeos at
Bangor, forenoon and afternoon; Paw
tucket at Brockton in the forenoon, and
vice versa in the afternoon; New Bedford
at Fall River in the forenoon and vice
versa in the afternoon.
Umpire Cray officiated yesterday for
the first time. He is a man of extraordi-
nary activity and alertness, who makes
himself heard with much promptf1ess and
distinctness and who attends strictly to
all the duties and fine points. He may
not always be correct in regard to balls.
and strikes-nobody is-but he gave, yes
terday, to our mind, a first class exhibit
tion of umpiring
