inexpensive. Parrot was picked off
between second and third when Hasa
maer hit to Shugart.
Pickett mad a safe hit, but Shugart
gave Genins a fly. George hit hot one,
which PARROT, by a brilliant effort,
stopped with his mitt near second base,
but on the north side. The ball bounded
from the mitt to the other side of the
base, and as Cantillion went after 1t,
Pickett kicked it. 1t was a foolish kick,
If it was Intentional, for there was no
chance to get either runner out, and as
1t was he was declared out for inter
fering with the ball. Inks gave Genins
another catch, and the side was out.
McGreevy hit Inks safely, but there
was no one behind him to score him.
Two were left on bases.
O'Rourke went out, but Wilson
dropped a thrown ball, and Glasscock
reached third safely. That was the third
place the Columbians lost the game.
Kraus made a nice single to wide left
field, in the vicinity so favored by
O'Rourke. He was caught trying to
steal second. George hit in the same
direction as Kraus and Mccormack
made a bad throw to first The fourth
place where they lost the game. Burns
sent liner over the pitchers box which
would have carried away Umpire
Clarke's topmast had he not gotten
the low bridge sign in time. Glasscock
and George both scored. 1t was eight
to two, but the visitors braced up i'm
mediately. Genins waited for four
balls. Parrot gave Burns fly, but
Hassamaer hit and Genins went to
third. Wilson hit safely and Genins
scored. Mccormack hit to left field, and
Wilson was caught trying to make
third on it. Hassamaer, however,
scored. McGreevy hit lively one into
right field bringing in Mccormack and
lifting the score to eight to FIVE.
Shugart opened the seventh with a
single to right, but the next three went
out and he did not score. Cantillion sent
beautiful drive down the field as
straight as die, and made third on
it. Two were out when PARROTS sin
gle scored him. That made it eight to
six.
Classcock hit one which scorched
PARROTS fingers, and stole second,
Kraus gave Genins a fly, and a passed
ball gave Glasscock third base. George
hit to Mccormack, and Glasscock was
caught trying to get home, although he
delayed the game long enough for
George to reach second. Columbus fail
ed to reach first.
After two were out in the ninth, Spies
hit a beautiful three Dagger between
Butler and Genins. but Inks merely
out. Butler gave Glasscock a hard stop
but he made it. Cantillion sent a live
twist over the sand heaps near second
base. Sharpe was next and home run
would tie the score. The first ball cut
the plate in the center and Sharpe met
it at the back corner. When it went
over the fence it was right over the
center of the big hat about ten feet,
which Is pretty long hit. Genins
struck out and Parrot sent fly to
George, so the fans breathed easier.
Then McGreevy pitched the low one
into ORourkes leg and was put out
of the game as already stated. Tim
stole second. Glasscock gave Butler a
fly. Kraus struck out A wild pitch
sent O'Rourke to third Daniels hit
George and the latter stole second.
Burns sent up a foul fly and Hasa
maer took it in. Then he went to bat
and Inks struck him out. Wilson hit
nice one to left field, but tried to make
second on it and was thrown out, the
fifth place where Columbus lost the
game, for IL he had not come in on
MeCormack's single to the right fence
moment later, he must have on But
ler's hard rap to Glasscock. Daniels
went to first on balls and the bases
were full when Cantillion came up.
There was a moment Of intense ex-
element when Joe pounded what
looked to be safe one into the corner
of right field.5 Itftwas pretty fast one,
and not very high, but Kraus judged
1t within the smallest fraction of an
inch and took it out of the air amid
great applause.
Pickett gave Parrott a chance and
Parrot accepted it. Cantillion credit
for the one that Shugart sent, and
Spies fly was looked after by Genins.
Capt Pickett had decided to change
pitchers, and DenZer, who had been
warming up since the seventh inning,
went into the box. The first ball that
| was batted got no farther than him
self. Genins sent a fly to Glasscock
and Parrot gave Kraus another
chance to save the game.
Denzer opened the twelfth with a
strike out, but O'Rourke was again hit
on the leg, strangely enough, perhaps,
in the same place as before. He went
to- steal second, and as Hassamaer
threw the ball, Glasscock lifted his
bat. Hassamaer claimed an interior
ence and Glasscock was declared out,
while O'Rourke was ordered back to
first. He stole second little later,
however, and Kraus got a base on
balls A nice hit would have given a
good lead, but Billy George, who had
not made a hit all day, sent fly to
Butler
Hassamaer opened with hard hit,
| and there was cloud on the faces of
the local fans. Wilson, however, sent
liner to Shugart, who not only made
beautiful stop, but brought the ball
down and threw 1t to first before
Hassamaer could get back Glasscock.
