SECOND GAME.

SECOND GAME.
A new prodigy was inserted in the
pitchers box by Manager Watkins in
the second game. His name is KEEL
lam, or Kallem, and he is the young
man who took the position that Chaun-
cey Fisher vacated Sunday in Mime
apolis, finishing the game, which was
as good as finished before he ever
went in.
Yesterday he was the first hand, but
his cards ran poorly and he was frozen
out at the end of the first inning, after
four hits had been made off him.
Wiley Davis, the Squirrel Hunter
then made his first appearance on st.
Paul grounds. Wiley has the physique
of Rusie, with the rosy cheeks of a
boy and a smile-picture of artless-
ness and serenity-of a. cherub, instead
Of the willy villain that he is-supposed
to be- The locals were not seriously
deceived by him, although he had the
speed of an encampmeut week police
man firing bullets into passing pedes-
TRANS. When he threw the ball it
would bear watching. Jack Glasscock
shouted down the line, He amt got
nothin'," which In the vernacular of
the club house is usually construed
to indicate that the opposing pitcher
has neither speed nor curves. Before
the game was over, however, Davis
world like a. plate-cutter, but which
meandered around until it penetrated
Mr.. Glasscock athwart the lumbar
vertebrae. After that the st. Paul
first baseman had no more contemp
tuous remarks for that pitcher.
When Kellam, however it may be
spelled, left the box, the locals had
two, two having been left on bases
when Spies struck out.
Indianapolis half started out as
though the morning errors were to be
repeated. George muffed Mccarthy s
fly and the Hoosier reached second,
going to third on wild pitch. Luck
lily he did not score.
Davis was credited with two strike
outs in the first inning he pitched,
Denzer getting a fine two-base hit III
between them. He did not score,
either. Then Hollingsworth gave
Scheibeck a life, and Denzer gave Stew
art a base. It looked exceedingly du-
bious for the locals, but Kraus pulled
down Woods liner and threw to sec
ond. Hollingsworth caught the ball
in one hand, about the time that
Scheibeck got back, and TWitchell
called him out. Glasscock hit Davis
safely, but George and he were dou-
bled. McCarthy's homer put the Hoo
siers where they could not be shut out.
The fourth saw only one man in
In the fifth O'Rourke gave Hogriever
a fly. Kraus hit toward third just as
a cloud of dust blew across the dia-
mond, and Shannon could not see the
ball. Glasscock followed with another
single. George flew out to Hogan, but
Burns three-base drive scored two
runs. After Hogan had struck out,
Davis started in to save his game
with a good hit. Shannon dropped a
fly where George could not reach it,
although it looked as though either
O'Rourke or Hollingsworth should have
gone after it, Mccarthy, however,
did not duplicate his home run and tie
the score, but forced Shannon out,
after which it was easy.
The locals hit three balls in the air
in the sixth, and O'Rourke's bad
throw gave the visitors a start with
Scheibeck on first. He stole second
and singles by Wood and Hogan
scored him. The last two tried to work
the double steal, but Wood was caught
at the plate by fine throw by Hol-
lingsWorth.
The locals had a good chance to do
something in the seventh. O'Rourke
hit short one, and beat the ball out,
or made the umpire believe he did,
which amounted to the same thing in
practice. Kraus sacrificed, and adj
vanced O'Rourke who threw his adj
vantage away by DelIS Caught Trying
to steal third. He had a good start,
but Wood made fine throw to the
bag. Shannon hit for two bases, but
was unable to score. Neither side got
beyond first base in the eighth
The ninth was a surprise. The To-
Gals had to play the last third Of the
batting order, but as soon as Spies
had gone out, Stratton drove the ball
into Hogan's precinct for three bases.
Denzer made the shock still greater
by planting the ball outside the lot
in Aurora avenue which was good
for two bases O'Rourke would have
forced Denzer out, but Shannon muffed
Scheibeck's throw. Kraus' fly to Ho-
gan permitted Denzer to score, and the
only Hoosier to get away from the
plate in the visitors last chance was
Shannon, who owed his good fortune
to Kraus' failure to stop ground ball.
He got no further. however.
