TEMPLE cup SERIES.
indianapolis VIII Play 1t with CO.
Iumbus.

Although yesterday closed the champion
ship season with the Indianapolis club, by
virtue of winning the championship Indi-
annapolis will play a series of games with
the club that wins second place, for the
Detroit Free Press cup. This club will
probably be Columbus. In case Columbus
beats out St. Paul for second place the
games for the cup will be played as fol-
lows: Saturday, Sept. Is, the first game,
in Indianapolis; Sunday, the 26th, the sec
ond game, in Columbus the third game in
Detroit Thursday, Sept. 80; the fourth
in indianapolis Saturday, Oct. 2; fifth in
Columbus Sunday Oct. 8. If another game
is needed it will be played on Monday Oct.
T. in Indianapolis or Columbus. Cincinnati,
with its Ill playing strength, will be here
to play the champions on Friday, the 2ith.
Indianapolis will play in Knightstcwn on
Wednesday and in Cambridge City on
Thursday. Jot Goar will pitch part of
each game.
In the cup series the receipts will go to
the players themselves, 60 per cent. to the
winners and 40 per cent to the losing team.
The Indianapolis club will quit the season
ahead 'artistically and financially as an
expression frequently goes. The club has
not made much money on account Of the
poor support given baseball in Grand Rap
ids, Minneapolis and Kansas City, when
trips were a losing venture for visitors.
The Indianapolis cranks have stood by the
club Loyalty. If Buffalo comes into the
league next season it will strengthen the
league. for Buffalo is a good ball town.
Indianapolis won the pennant this year
by fine team work" said Manager Wat
kins last night THE club has played,
steady, excellent ball. A feature of the
season was the remarkable development of
Flynn as a shortstop and the Improvement
of Woods work behind the bat. But all
the boys did such good work it is hardly
fair to particularize. The evenness of the
teams playing was a strong point in Win
ming the championship. The batting was
far superior to that of last year, and the
fielding was also of a cleaner grade. The
pitching was more uniform than in sea-
sons past Goar Phillips and Foreman
have each pitched about the same number
of games and have lost about the same
number, Phillips losing ten, Goar nine and
Foreman eight, l believe. The pitchers
have been in pretty good shape throughout
the season. Each day the club was about
as strong as it was the day before"

TWO FROM GRAND RAPIDS.
A DOubIe-Header Ended the Race for
the Peunant.

The championship season is over so far
as this city is concerned. 1t ended yester-
day-not brilliantly, but substantially, as
the leaders had little trouble taking two
more games from Grand Rapids, though the
score of the last one was close. 1t would
have been as easy as the first had Bass
not been allowed to pitch three and a half
innings. He is much too slow for this
league, and the Bobs thumped the ball
around at great rate during his time on
the slab. Phillips was substituted during
the fourth inning, and the tail-enders, hav-
ing become accustomed to hitting the ball,
kept right on pegging away, but subsidized
in time to lose the game. 1t was marked
by beautiful catches by Mccarthy and Nc
Kibben. Beville caught both games, and
did very nicely. Wood relieved him for the
last inning of the second game, when the
score was so close that the Bobs needed
close watching. There were a thousand
people at the grounds, and they had con-
siderable fun out of the two games, the
second of which was called after five in
nings had been played.
THE FIRST GAME.
Hogrievers base on balls, steal, Dono-
vans wild throw and McFarlands fly gave
Indianapolis one in the opening inning of
the first game Stewards single, Flynns
base on balls, Phillips's two-bagger to left.
Hogrievers hit, GrifIins tumble of Gray's
grounder, McFarland's single and MOTIFS
triple rolled up six in the second A safe
