The third Eane Of the series with the
Fort Waynes was played yesterday ar-
,erroon and ended in q victory for the
leaders after hard-fouSht contest OF
s,eycn innings. Phil Knen. the once
famous south-paw, was In the box for
III. visitors and after the first inning no
had the whecHngs guessing all sorts Of
ways-any way but the right way,
Garyey OBLIGATED In the box for the
Nallers and pitched very fair game,
although he seemed to be unable to keep
the opposing batsmcn from hitting the
hail when hits contributed to runs.
But for the lucky batting streak OF the
Wbaelings In the first inning, when,
With two men on bases, Rtckert knocked
a homer over left tield fence. the home
team would not have been IN the hunt
with the visitors at any stage OF the
game True, the Sallcrs put UP very
6ne game In the field, doing Tar better
work In that branch OF the game than
their opponents, but the trouble was
they did not hit the ball, securing but
two hits OF the reluVcnated Knell after
tbes fourth inning. After Fort Wayne
had tied the score In the eigAth inning II
was seen that sooner or Later the FCrt
Wnypes would win. Glrvcy was pitch
trr fair article OF ball. but was not eff
fectiye ut critical moments, while, on
