The Saint Paul globe. (St. Paul, Minn.) 1896-1905, 1896-07-11


But it is no nearer Indianapolis than
it was yesterday morning.
The Hoosiers are playing pennant-
winning ball, with the luck of circum-
stances.
Yesterdays game here was very one
sided after the fifth inning, when the
local team fell upon Pitcher McFar-
land and piled up all manner of runs.
Jack Carney was out of the game, it
being the first league game he has
missed this season. Phyle's swift ball
of Thursday gave Jack very bad
arm, and his physician advised him
that from the way it felt, there might
be a compound fracture below the ell
bow. He hopes, however, to be able
to play in Minneapolis today.
Mullane pitched for st. Paul, and as
he walked into the diamond a storm
of Kisses came from the bleachers
where there was very evident memory
of his unseemly conduct of last Sum
day. Mullane is clearly not the pop
ular idol that he was, and as soon as
he gets his head down to the same
size as the pedestal Oh which the pub
lie plants him, he will be much better
as pitcher. A few sharp calls will
take some of the conceit out of him.
Mcfarland pitched for Grand Rapids,
and Pitcher Parker played first base.
putting up fine fielding game. He
accepted every chance, and took in
some foul flies in manner that would
have done credit to old Jack Glasscock
himself, and the fans do agree that
when it comes to foul flies the old man
is the best that ever happened.
O'Rourke was given first and stole
second. Glasscock hit for two bases
which made a run. Then Jack stole
third and came home on wild pitch.
The next three went out, Gettinger
catching George at first on one of his
characteristic throws from right field.
The Gold Bugs didn't get to first base

Pickett landed squarely on the ball
for two bases A. passed ball sent him
to third, and he came home on Shu-
CARTS fly to Mcbride. Parker went out,
but Gettinger ard Mills hit for two
bases each. Tony gave Smink a base,
and then Camp hit one of his chance
drives to right field. That brought in
the third and tying run. The next two
went out on grounders to Pickett.
Three successive singles and Georges
fly to Mcbride brought in two more
runs. The Gold Bugs failed to reach
first
Mcfarland hit Mullane in the back
with the ball knocking him down.
Three flies, one to Mcbride and two
fouls which Parker ffelded nicely re-
tired St. Paul. Smink was the only
Hung Chang to reach first and he went
there on a roller that rolled through
Jack Pickett's hands and feet. pair

error by Wheelock, gave the locals six
runs in the fifth. There were three

score on 1T from first base and was
caught between third and home The
Yellow Jackets failed to reach first
St Paul made five more singles and
two-bagger. Five more runs. Butler
was put in to pitch. Grand Rapids
played three safe hits against pair
of strike-outs, and only got one run
out of it all, Camp tanning with his
usual two men on bases.
Stratton hit a single and George put
the ball over the fence Burns hit

out to Gettinger, and Shugart hit a low

second. Stratton singled and George
made home run over the left field

that there were divers and sundry
singles and two-baggers until ST. Paul
had acquired the modest competency
of twenty-four runs for the game, when
Glasscock gave them another chance

did better than Camp had done
Wheelock then got his base on balls
