San Antonio daily light. [volume] (San Antonio, Tex.) 1886-1907, 1897-07-10

At Fort worth-Houston 8, Fort
Worth z.
There was rejoicing in Paris yester-
day. 1t was a double event. The Mid
landers won their fourth. game Of the
new series and for the first time took
a fall out Of the Champions. The
Green Parasites had no trouble with
Red Herbert. and with the aid of a
few costly errors won the game hands
down. Callahan. the former Sherman
lite, was a puzzle for the Bronchos,
and they had to content themselves
with six measly hits. while Kohnle.
Bailey, Knau and Stanley were added
to his strikeout record.
And Jack Phelan was the umpire.
But this is not Yewst'n, and the UNI
pire is safe.
At Denison the Senators, by luckily
punching a quartette of safeties in the
first inning, shut the Indians out.
Pitcher Drinkwater, whose name re-
calls the eventful shut-out at San Ped
70 park of last Sunday, has entirely
recovered from the effects of the Sc
we're drubbing administered to him by
the Bronchos, and the best the In
dams could do with him yesterday was
to get four little hits off him. Drink
water is a pitcher of the first water,
but like all the rest he has his off-days.
On the other hand, Jake Roach, who
was such a puzzle for the Bronchos
here last week, was touched up lively
| by McCloskeys Dallas Browns yester-
day, while Gus weighing, the ex-Phil-
lie was inyincible,
Whatever may be said of Austin, the
Capitol City has fairmlnded individ-
ual in Judge Walker. This gentleman
| evidently knows something about the
| law. At any rate he interpreted
Blackstone yesterday, which knocked
case against the Austin Athletic as
ISOLATION for alleged violation of the
Sunday law, higher than kite. 1t Is
hoped that for the last time the re-
ligious cranks will quit mixing baseball
with Sunday law. They don't trot
in the same class.
George Blackburn pitched for the
Orioles at Louisville yesterday and let
the Colonies, down with six hits, win
ming his game by to A. Blackburn
has written to McCloskey that Ned
Hanlon hadn't given him a fair show
and put him in against Cincinnati when
i the Reds were three runs ahead, and
that they only got a few scratch hits
off him. Now that he has won his
game and displayed his pitching talent
lit may be likely that he will be retain
ed by Baltimore.
Win Clark left for Louisville, KY
last night over the st. Louis Limited.
He will be in Paris today to tell the
Bronchos goodbye. Clark is going
to play second base for the Kernels,
and there is no fear but that he will
hold his own. Some of his friends are
doubtful as to Clark's hitting ability.
They, however, admit that he is good
1bunter, but say that has nothing to do
with hitting the ball." Never mind
about Win not hitting the ball. just
watch him.
This is one player the cranks want
ed to have released in the beginning Of
| the season.
| And then you can wonder that base
hall hasn't thrived in San Antonio I'M
til Mike O'Connor took hold of 1t? or
course, the patronage is not what 1t
ought to be, but that is not O'Connor's
fault.
Yesterday there were rumors of a
petition for injunction to restrain clark
| from going to Louisville, and two
months ago there were rumors ABOUT
firing Clark.
Think of it.
What! Next year? E
Well, let's hope for the best, and lay
our little hammers aside, and quit
knocking. and pull for Your Uncle
Mike. ts-
He's the boy
To cause you joy,
But you can't toy
With this boy.
| And that's no 10y.
