The Saint Paul globe. (St. Paul, Minn.) 1896-1905, 1897-05-10

PAIL, but Mcbride got by, ana Miller >
only misplay of the game brought in
in the air toward third base. Kuehne
went after it, but the wind blew 1t
away from the thick man, and Nyce
ran in on it. Miller, by a fine throw,
caught George well off second on a
vain effort to steal. 1t vas a tie.
Phyle ielded C~assidy's light one, but
then gave Kuehne a base. Preston
spoiled an easy mt and gave Part
ridge a life, and four balls to Carney
filled the sacks. Phyle was in a tight
box, with only one out, but he struck
Ball out, and Lally hit a hard one,
which promised well, but for McBride's
nice run and catch. The three died.
Spies, who waited for four, was the
only Apostle to reach first in h sec
ond.
Wilmot tried Phyle and Phyle fielded
perfectly. Miller hit a high foul. Pres
tor and PARROT we're both after it,
when Shugart ran away outside the
foul line and got it.
Pickett was next, n an enthusiastic
ST. Paulite in the stand yelled: There
he is. Get him an easy chair"
met the ball and drove it sixteen inches
farther back in the field than Parrot
ever thought of playing, in the very
shadow of the fence. Jack is not the
fastest runner in the business, but he
made three bases.
AN easy chair, eh?" went up de-
risfvely from at least 200 throats. "He
needs IN easy chair, does hep"
I'm all through admitted the st.
Paul man, and the game was resumed.
Phyle's next ball hit Cassidy, and
then kuehne drove a black sphere
down the right, white, foul line. 1t
was close at first base, and it went into
the crowd. Kuehne went three bases
on it, no blocked ball rule being en-
Lally did not allow it. and Pickett
and Cassidy scored, naturally. Kuehne
vas left when Mcbride took another
pretty fly. 1t was four-two. <FE.
Mcbride hit a hard one toward Cas-
sidy, but went out. Carney hit Preston
on the leg, knocking hin down. Nyce's
clean drive through the center won
him a hand, and Preston went to third
after Parrot flew out to Partridge.
Preston and Nyce worked the double
steal. 1t was close at home, and Miller
kicked pretty hard, but it was only
one u against two that Kuehne's du-
bious three-bagger had materialized
George again hit safely, tying the score
with Nyce's second run, and was again
caught trying to steal second.
A fly to George and some inield
grounders retired Minneapolis one, two,
three; n two flies to Lally and an
easy one to Ball did the same for St.
Paul. The game was getting interest
ing.
Wilmot again got his base on four.
Miller drove a hard one out, and Wal
ter, thinking it was surely safe, start
ed around. When he discovered that
George had caught the ball, it was ev-
erlastingly too late, for Glasscock had
started one of the merriest little
shrieks of laughter that was ever din
ned into the ear of a discounted pro-
f%essional. Pickett almost repeated his
three-bagger, but Parrot made a star
catch. Phyle went to first on Carney'S
excited throw to first. He hen tried
to steal second on McBride's third
strike, a futile experiment with Dog
gle" in the triangle. Preston gave
Pickett an easy one.
Cassidy planted the ball safely i'll
right field, and Kuehne sacrificed,
Phyle covering the bag. Partridge hit
another hard one to Glasscock and
again Phyle covered the sack. Cassidy
reached third, but Carney hit to Shu-
CART, who played with the ball long
first. Lally, however, ruled the little
pitcher out.
Nyce a second time hit safely, open
ing st. PauTs half. Parrott and George
did as well, and on the latter Nyce
scored for a third time. Partridge
tried to catch Parrot at third, but in
vain, and George also succeeded in
making second. Glasscocl1 went out on
a grounder to Ball, but Shugart drop
ped a two-bagger in Lally's vicinity,
and the Saints were three ahead, Spies
hit a hot one on Balls right. He
reached for it but let it get through
his fingers. Shugart scored, and Wal
ter anne in from center to ask the
shortstop if his fingers were made out
of bread dough or pie crust. Phyle hit
to Pickett, and a double play retired
the Apostolic combination. Two were
out when WilmOt again got a base on
balls, but Mcbride surprised all the
Millers by another fine catch. Then he
was also presented with our balls, and
Preston sacrificed. Nyce, for a third
time, hit safely, amid general approx
al, and Mcbride scored the Saints ninth
run. Ball ate up a line drive and threw
Nyce out at first in a pretty double.
Pickett opened the eighth with a. sec
ond safe hit, but three high ones to
various parts Of the field kept him from
scoring.
The Apostles did not get to first. They
did not need to. Minneapolis needed
five to tie, when Carney led with an
easy one to Nyce. Nyce fielded it too.
Ball gave Spies a foul tip, and Lally's
pretty single to left field was wasted
when Wilmot gave George the final
fly. The score:
