WFNSLOW BOWS IN HONOR TO

They Batted Rand all Over the
Field.
FLAGSTAFF. July 9Th. 1897


A clear sky, high wind supported
by plenty of dust, and an enormous
crowd greeted Flagstaff and Winslow
teams to-day, when play was called at
2:45 p. m. For four innings the game
promised to be magnificent one, as
both teams fought with determina-
ton born of desperation.
The Flagstaff boys had hundreds of
dry and dusty throats to cheer their
scarce efforts, but Winslow seemed to
have only handful, and the boys we're,
in consequence, cool and collected.
Kelly did the work for Winslow, but
was given excellent support by the
other mem bers of the nine.
The first time to bat was accorded to
Flagstaff The only incident was run
scored by Vaughn Flynn retiring the
side Flickinger and Hallett scored
for Winslow, and Burgess completed
the work of destruction.
In second, Sliker scored for Flagstaff,
and Captain Won Media committed the
third out. Karrigan, after neat sim
gle, was forced out on second base by
OConnor. Flickinger, losing heart by
the fate of his comrades, gave up the
ghost. The second inning was without
issue for Winslow.
In the third inning, Flagstaff came
up smilingly, and made vain effort to
find the ball, but like the deceptive pea
in the she'll game, could not be located.
They went out in one, two, three or
der. Hallett, in his anxious endeavor
| to contribute q score, was nipped on
second base. Morris and Briscoe did
not survive him long.
The fourth inning was monotonous
for both sides, no runs being scored.
In this inning, umpires were changed,
Sparkling being relieved By member
of Fort Whipple Band.
I'm the fifth, Flagstaff left no will,
whilst Flickinger's two-base hit scored
one run, but he was caught mapping on
third base.
The sixth added. two scores to Flag
staff, Neraed by Flynn and Siker. The
Winslow boys seemed to have discov-
cred Rand's trail, and proceeded to
| bound him hard and long, just. as a
prudent housewife would treat q tough
piece of steak. In this bout, Winslow
scored five runs. Two three-base hits
were made by O'Connor and Flickinger
In the seventh inning, Flagstaff made
no scores. Winslow, however, proved
hat they were masters Of the situation
by magnificent double play, thereby
retiring their opponents when the three
bases we're full. Hallett to Pullar to
Burgess. This was the only brilliant
play of the afternoon, and perpetrated
in the nick Of time. To this one play
is due our boys success.
In the eighth inning Flagstaff added
one run; Finn retiring the side. Two
wild throws to Pullar were discourag-
ing for the Grays. Winslow was pre-
sented with a run on Slilker's wild
throw to first. A neat. single by Kelly
scored Pullar. BURGESS retired the
nine.
The ninth inning opened with wild
throw to first by 0'Connor, giving Won
Media two bases. Morris muffed a
pretty ball, letting Won Needa home.
The Grays did not go to bat in this in
ming.
The score stood, Winslow 13, Flag
staff 8. Time, hours snd 15 minutes
NOTES
What's the matter with Winslow?
She's all right!
The only pebble on the beach-Kelly
Burgess caught a MAGNIFICENT game,
and earned reputation as careful,
cautious player. His work was splen-
did, considering lack of practice and
the fact that he had been at work for
tventy-four hours and without sleep.
Karrigan surprised himself. He can
play with Winslow.
Flickinger is hitter from Hitter
Vile.
Briscoe sustained his reputation as
GoJd o,ra shot
