Basebarlist-AiI the Way From Coed to

Baltimore, Nd, Oct. 2-The Cham
pions took a long pull and pull all to-
serher this Afternoon, and beat their an
.ient enemies, the Spiders. in the first
game OF the Temple cup series OF 80.
They did it with such apparent ease
that the hearts OF the Baltimore fans
Are filled with the fondest hopes that
The trophy which has heretofore hung
coo high for the Orioles to reach, will
ut last be plucked and brought to Balti-
more to keep company with the three
championship pennants Of which Man.
ager HanIon is so produd. The weather
was everything that could be desired,
but in spite OF this fact less than 1000
people went out to Union park to see
the contest. This was a great diSap-
pointment to the players as ii was
thought that not less than 10000 would
pay their admission fee. The slim at
tendance is probably attributable TO the
TACT That the price of admission to the
bleachers was increased to so cents and
that to the grand stand to IS cents.
The contest throughout was clean and
free from wrapgling. although some
close decisions were questioned. The
crowd was good-natured and cheered
Captain Tebeau when he came TO the
bat He was compelled to relinquish
his place to O'Connor at the beginning
of the third inning because Of an injury
TO his back which will probably keep
him cut Of tomorrow's game.
McGraw, for the Orioles, also found
the work too hard for him and Quinn
took third base in the last half of the
same inning.
The game as an exhibition Of scien-
tific ball playing, was a good one,
albounding in fine fielding and hard hitt-
Ing. Jennings error, the only one for
the Orioles, was an excuSable one, be-
Ing low throw to first after brilliant
stop and while running at top speed.
Those the visitors made were very cost
BY and all but one OF them resulted in
giving runs to the home team. Young
ives batted freely while Hoffer pitched

Ut times when even a long fly would
have meant a run for the visitors Score
