Jimmy Callahan, of Kansas City,was
yesterday knocked out of the box by
the st. Paul aggregation of batters,
and, while it occurred on the West
side grounds, Jimmy's troubles were
not due to the short fence, for the
fatal inning, the fifth, was marked not
by long flies over the boundary, but
fast, low drives that fell within range
without being winged by his superior
outfelders.
Fourteen hits in five innings, with
six of these punched in the last, tells
the story of his downfall. His OPP
ponent was Roger Denzer, and the
Kansas City rowdies thought to rattle
Roger by the prediction that his arm
would give out, if he pitched every
day. At the same time they were pitch
ing Callahan, who has pitched three
games out of the four the locals have
played with them this series, or, to
be more exact, has tried to. The first
game he lost but saved external dis
grace by scrapping with the umpire
and getting put out of the game. The
second game he won, but the third
he was beaten decisively. And when
he went out Denzer was pitching pref
ty near as good ball as there is pitched
in the Western league. In the sixth
he let down a little and the visitors,
by gathering together four runs, came
within speaking distance of the locals
again. It was only for a little while,
however for in the next inning, with
three on bases, Jim Burns lifted one
of Knelrs prettiest shoots over the
fence, and from that on the score was
as one sided as the trail of a three
legged rabbit.
Two hits were made off Callahan
In the first, Twitchelrs being a homer
and George double. George did not
score. and the visitors tied it forthwith
with Lakes two-bagger, and Klus-
mans fly which was allowed to drop
between Burns, Twitchell and Hol-
lingsworth.
Three singles and Kings failure to
catch Spies fly gave the locals three
more in the second. Callahan distin-
guished himself by a pretty double,
getting Denzer out at first after catch
ing O'Rourkes wide pop-up. Three
singles gave Kansas City another run.
George and Glasscock hit safely in
the third with no one out, but they
Were held while two went out, and
then Callahan caught George away off
second George claimed a balk, but
Caruthers would not allow it. Gala
han caught him off the bag without
throwing the bali at all. The Blues
went one. two, three
Callahan gave Hollingsworth creden-
tials by which he reached first without
serious delay The little fellow stole
second and went to third on Lakes
bad throw. Menefee intercepted Spies
liner, but Lake dropped Denzer's third
strike, and Roger ran to first. Lake
threw to Klusman, but the latter, with
out covering the bag, threw to the
plate to catch Holly. Lake again
dropped the ball. and all were safe
Twitchell's base on balls advanced
Denzer, and Glasscock's hit scored him.
Menefee made fine catch of
O'ROurke's fly. Kings home run was
Kansas City's only accomplishment
Burns opened the fifth with a base on
balls, and with Shugart out on a high
fly to Klusman Hollingsworth went to
first the same as before.
Spies. Denzer and O'Rourke in turn
pounded out two-base hits, and Glass
cock singled. He was doubled out on
Georges hit to Menefee but the locals
had pounded six runs out on Callahan
and were content.
Burns took two flies and Twitchell,
after hard run, took the third. The
Blues We're bluer than usual
Knell was not permitted to delay the
game at all. Burns opened the inning
with a hit. Shugart went out, but the
next two hit the ball and the only
reason that but one was scored was
because Spies tried to steal second on
DenZers third strike and failed. Klus-
man was permitted to walk to first
Shugart gave Nichol life, and Hatfield
and Campau hit for two bases and three
respectively. The counts hit was a
beauty to the far corner of the field,
the wind carrying it deceptively over
Burns head just out of reach. King
hit to Glasscock, who tried to catch
Campau. ORourke, however, was not
on the bag, and both runners were
safe. Knell flew out to Burns, who
made a, pretty throw to first, but did
not quite make a double. Campau's
was the last score, however, Burns get
ting another nice one.
The locals proceeded at once to get
the four back, as Comiskey quantity
puts It, Twitchelps base on balls
helped a little and then Knell hit
Glasscock's leg. Georges fly, which
Campau could not see for the sun,
filled the bases. Burns emptied them
with homer. Still the locals were not
satisfied, for Shugart hit hard one.
and Hollingsworth rolled one through
Nyce Spies double and O'Rourke's
single brought in three more runs
Nichol made a hard run to catch Spies
drive, but could not reach 1t and fell
into the fence. He was stunned for a
minute, but was able to continue the
game. The visitors got two on bases,
but could not score.
Only six men were at bat in the
eighth, Knell, the only one of them to
reach first. going out on double play.
Campau took two flies in the ninth
before Spies third two-base hit, which
was wasted. Klusman and Blanford
