The Saint Paul globe. (St. Paul, Minn.) 1896-1905, 1896-07-02

1t homer, but Pickett, who was on
the coaching line, picked him off the
line and carried him back to the bag.
Stratton did not get the ball out of the
diamond, and George was left. Kuehne
second time hit for two bases. this
going over the fence at great rate.
Ball struck out, but Anderson hit safe
ly and scored Kuehne.
Pickett got a base on balls, and then
showed his heady play when Shugart
made a nice single to right. Instead
of stopping at second, Pickett ran well
over, and Frank in his anxiety to catch
him off the bag, threw like shot from
a bun to the bag. Ball, however, was
not stopping easy ones, let alone that
kind so after Pickett saw that the ball
was going to strike the right field fence.
he went on to third. Spies struck out
but Ball fumbled Mullane's gentle
grounder and Pickett scored. Then it
was that O'Rourke's fly started the
complications previously described and
Connor's dirty work let Shugart in
Wilmot secured base on balls and
Werden hit to left field Frank went
out on a foul, which Glasscock took by
| hard run. in the corner of the fence
| near the bleachers but Wilmot went to
third. Glasscock made a hard throw
| to catch him, but it did not work.
| Schriver then had nice one eaten up
by a young man named Turner in CEN
| ter field, and while Kuehne's single
scored, Wilmot, Ball flew out to STRAIT
| ton, and only one run scored. 1t was
Minneapolis last. 1t was this catch of
| Strattens that made the Millers, still
smarting under the sad results of their
tricky playing in the fifth, claim that
! Stratton took the ball as 1t bounded
| off the fence
Turner went out, but George made
] his third consecutive hit Connors' err
rOr spoiled a double play, which should
| have retired the side. Both runners, in
| stead, were safe, and Picketts hit
| scored George, while it gave the batter
a chance to guy Perry Werden. Shugart
forced Stratton out at the plate, and
Spies flew out to Connors, but the 10
Gals had an even dozen runs.
Anderson hit safely, but Shugaxt
made nice stop of a liner near second
base. and a double play cleared the
bases again. Lally hit for a base, but
1t was wanted, and it was in this in
ming that Turner made his beautiful
catch of WilnTot's drive that must 9TH
erwise have scored one or both Of them.
! 1t made Walter SO mad he did not
/ speak to Turner as he met him on his
way in from the field but the applause
that Tuck received from the crowd
probably compensated him for the loss
OF Wilmot's esteem.
Anderson had had enough, so Long
John Healey was put in. He had two
strikes on Mu1lane when the latter hit
the ball high in the air and Healy
caught it himself, with Schriver on his
knees in suppliant attitude to pro-
4 tect against a muff. ORourke, too,
failed to hit the ball effectively, and
while Glasscock put 1t over the right
fence for two bases. the hit was vast
/ ed. as Turner flew out to Connors. Den
ger went in for ST. Paul to even things
/ up. Shugart took the first ball and
Werden was out. Frank gave ORourke
an easy one, and Tim threw the ball too
high. 1t was St.Paul's first error, but as
| GlaSscock stepped back and stopped
| the ball, holding Frank at first, and as
Shugart Clearly started a. double on
the next batted ball, the only error was
absolutely inexpensive.
Werden spoiled Georges perfect bat
ting record by nice catch of a hard
foul fly Stratton and Pickett were still
| hitting safely, however, and yet they
| did not score, for Shugart forced STRAIT
ton out, and then Spies gave Ball a.
chance to distinguish himself. Kuehne
went out, and as Ball was not batting
well, Joe Straus- was put in his place.
Joe, however, gave O'Rourke a chance
to redeem himself for his error, and
Healy did also, giving him a foul fly.
Denzer opened the ninth by two
base hit that was dangerously close to
the left foul line rolling outside, in
| fact, and striking the bottle of club
house whisky, but O'Rourke's grounder
to Kuehne held Roger at second, and
then Glasscock struck out, which he
did not think was on the square. Tur-
ner again failed to hit, and ST. PauPs
score was full. Conner and Laily vain
ly tried to hit the ball out of the
diamond. and then Wilmot struck out
