Manitowoc got it back at Kaukauna
last Sunday in we'll played game OF
base ball, and thereby evened up the
score of games played in the series.
Each team having taken two games.
it will be necessary to play the fifth
game to decide the championship. 1t
is not yet definitely decided where the
teams will meet to determine the
series.
Bloch officiated in the box for kau
kauna, and was found for nineteen
hits with total of twenty seven bases
which sufficiently tells the story. Six
of these, footing up to ten bases, were
punched in the fourth inning. and
yielded five earned runs. Two singles,
a double. a triple and Kromer's error
netted five more in the sixth and plac-
ed the game out Of kaukauna's reach.
Vollendorf kept the hits well scatter
ed after the first inning and the home
nine could do nothing with him.
The scoring began in Manitowocs
first half After A. Torrison had gone
out at third and Reuther had failed
to connect with three good ones, John
son cracked out hit that scored ".
Torrison. who had singled. In kau-
kauna' half the run getting proceed
ed. OFT walked. Dletzler singled, as
did G. Phillips, and after ". Phillips
had famed, KRONER hit for a base,
the result being three scores. Moth
ing occurred to weary the fans until
A. Torrison opened the third with an
other clean hit Reuther was poked
by a pitched ball and w. Torrison hit
to short, who fieided to third, and A.
TOrrison was forced out, leaving first
and second bags occupied, Bloch then
filled the bases by hitting johnson.
TO increase the excitement Bartels
struck out; but Rosenfelder arose to
the occasion and cleaned the bases by
two-baser. He Immediately after
ambled home on t. Torrison's safe
one. This pl laced the visitors two runs
in the lead, but W Phillips and Kro
mer's hits with an outtield error i'm
mediately evened matters up again.
However Pitcher Bloch had troubles
of his own in the next inning. Vol
lendorf pushed the ball entirely out
of reach and made the circuit. Just
to get into the game Rathsack drop
ped one IN safe spot, A. TOrrison
sacrificed, ". Torrison laced out a
double, johnson a single, Rosenfelder
another and L. Torrison one more.
The latter was caught trying to ap
proprlate second and ended the agony.
After the smoke had lifted a count
was had and five runs chalked up.
This lead proved to be ample, kau
kauna's efforts to overcome 1t produc
ing but one score, a home run drive
by DIetzler in tho seventh. Mantle
woo got their batting clothes on again
in the sixth and chased each other
around the diamond for some time,
and the home boys could not stop the
procession until five more had been
placed on file. In this inning KRONER
got intertwined with himself and then
after a runner had crossed the plate
attempted to take it out on the UNI

had no bearing on the game, which
was already lost to Kaukauna by a
large majority.

away the batting honors for the home
team. For the visitors, W. Torrison
showed up in the best form, both in
stick work and fielding, his record
being four basehlts, four runs. four
teen putouts, one assist and no errors.
Vollendorf had speed and curves and
ginger to burn, and helped things
along with the willow. Some hun
dred and fifty excursionists were on
hand to aid in therooting. The score:
