The record-union., 1897-06-28

won out in a sprint. with a score of
% to 16.
At the conclusion of the struggle be-
tween the Wholesalers and Retailers
the two athletic club teams played five
innings, resulting in a tie-4 to 4. The
game throughout was marked with
brilliant plays, and the fielding on both
sides was of the first water. 1t is to
be regretted that the limited time did
not admit of finishing the game.
Several aggregations of ball players
met on the diamond at Agricultural
Park, the first game, between the Hol-
brook, Merrill & Stetsons and the
Southern Pacific Freight Sheds, being
called at o'clock a. m. The score was
somewhat startling, and after it had
been added up showed that the Freight
Shed men had won cut-36 to IA.
If the score made by the Freight
Shed and the Holbrook, Merrill & Stet-
son teams was somewhat higher than
is usual in a professional game, it was
hardly to be compared with that made
by the Courthouse men and the Law
yers, who faced each other at IL
o'clock. The game was long and earn
est, and resulted in the defeat of the
Courthouse men by a score of 81 to 70.
At 2:30 o'clock p. m. the Reubens
again showed their mettle by defeat
ing the Golden State Hotel team by
score of II to Z. The game was played
at Twenty eighth and @ streets. The
principal feature was the home run
made by Ira Woodruff of the Hotel
team
There was quite a large attendance
at Agricultural Park yesterday to see
the ball game between the newly-or-
ganized Railroad League team, the c.

who attended were given perfect salts
faction, as the game was one of the
most interesting played this season.
The c. c. and BIS won the game by
two runs.
Good games are promised, as the
diamond is in the best condition. Wis
iting teams will be billed at different
dates, and all that the management can
do to give to the public the best of ball
games will be done
