REMARKS ABOUT THE GAME.
Leach pitches this afternoon.
Belts has improved on his base de-
cisions.
Jimmy Little is the same "old man"
of last season.
Mcnamara and Burke worked splen-
didly with Holman yesterday
Slow base running and dumb coachins
cost Portsmouth the game yesterday.
Judging from the work of the Hill
Climbers yesterday, they have started
IN the pennant race with grave deter
mination.
Pat" Rollins went to the bat just five
times yesterday, and he didn't do
thing but bang" out two two-baggers
and three singles
o /,
pied condition found Stultz for three
Dagger and three singles. What would
the cap" do II he was In fine condi-
ton?
Glenn did very we'll yesterday in the
box. He has n very deceptive curve,
which seemed to puzzle Belts, for that
gentleman invariably gave him the
worst of the deal.
Another pleasant feature in the way
of accommodation has been added to the
park in Portsmouth in the addition of
bicycle rack. Messrs. Mavo and Will
liams have charge of ii. and they are
kept busy storing away wheels.
Ludlow. Ky, has been signed by
Cap" Mari, and he will join the team
about Wednesday morning. He Is a
fast man. six feet tall, and is said to be
a hard hitter and feet base runner
Come. get together Portsmouth root
ers" and stop knocking" You have
got one of the best ball teams in the
league, so don't discourage the players
by saying unpleasant things about
them. They will strike their gait short-
ly. and then you will be sorry for the
hard things you now say of them.
The visitors from Lynchburg displayed
ginger and backbone in yesterdays
game. They were apparently baase
at the beginning of the game, but they

suit was game added TO their won
