MINNEAPOLIS. July 1S-The Indianians
want no better pie than they are being
served with in Minneapolis The Millers
went in the game to-day like a lot of men
just awakened from trance and PLAYED
with about as much vim as the proverbial
ice wagons. Nearly all seemed to have
been taken with epidemic of blind stag
gers or something equal, for they fell like
ninepins on a big strike Connors went
after a ball and stubbed his toe only TO
fall to the ground. Werden backed up on
a high fly. and just as he got it he sat
down so hard that the ball was jostIed out
of his hands. Wilmot, of course. had to
follow the general tumbling disease. and
then Hutchinson. to be in line did the
same. Two errors were then thrown in to
make handful
In spite of all this groggy work the
Millers would have tied the score but for
O'Day's decisions in the second inning
when. all agree except the visitors, that
the umpire presented the champions with
two runs. Motz went TO bat and singled
going TO second on Stewards base on balls
Motz took a big lead from the bag and
Hutch" fired the ball TO Ball. who touched
Motz out by three feet. He was called
safe. and for the first time on the Minneap-
oils grounds O'Day was vigorously roasted.
Shiebeck then came 10 bat and hit to
HUTCH who had plenty of time and
threw Motz out at third. Shannon then
went to bat and hit TO Connor, who threw
TO Ball in time to catch Shiebeck In the
melee Stewart trotted home. Then Phil
lips sent Shannon home on a clean single.
Had the umpire seen Ball put out Motz
there would have been no scores. So rea-
soned the cranks. and they were awfully
sore on the umpire. None could claim.
however. that such display as the Millers
made should ever entitle a team TO vic
tory.
Motz. the boss base thief OF yesterday.
was not in ii to-day and was put out twice
while attempting to steal. The champions
made made two double plays. but the cranks pro-
tested the one IN the sixth, as they did sew
eral other decisions None of the home
runs brought runs in ahead.
