The Saint Paul globe. (St. Paul, Minn.) 1896-1905, 1897-08-14

not have found the ball yet If there
hadn't been eight other folks in the
team. There were only three bases oc-
cupied then. George lined out another
hit, a pretty drive within a foot of first
base. but on the side Of the foul line
that was nearest the pitcher. Two
runs came in and it was a tie. When
the rooters had gotten, through root
ing and the bleachers had gotten
through bleaching, for it came up
cloudy just then. Glasscock hammered
out another neat single and put the
locals in the lead. Gillen famed this
time, and Preston. too. The latter
famed at three in succession, and two
Of them did not look any more like
strikes than profile of Queen Victoria
does like a chart of the Klondike re-
gion. But the locals were ahead.
Hogriever opened the third with a
safe one. Gray tried to sacrifice. Den
ger threw to second. Umpire Haskell
called Hogriever out. Hoggy NUT
tered a few words in Choctaw, per-
haps for fear the English translation,
freely rendered, would cost about five
dollars per folio. Mcfarland hit a fly
between right and center. George
muffed it, after run. Mccarthy hit
hot one to Glasscock. Jack threw to
the plate. Gray started back. Nc
Farland was already on third. Gray
ems. and the choice was not inviting.
He was put out, and Georges fine
catch Of MOTIFS fly retrieved his own
error in short order.
Hogriever caught Spies, and Holly
sent high foul fly back of the home
teams bench. Gray made a sensa-
tional catch. Denzer gave Mccarthy
a fly, and it was still three-two, with
the visitors coming up.
Spies caught a foul fly, and
Denzer struck out Asa Stewart. Flynn
gave Glenalvin a fly, and Mcbride sent
rakish grounder over second base
which Stewart reached for but could
not have gotten with a minnow net.
Glenalvin struck out, and Mcbride
tried to get to second on the third
strike. Two were out when noses were
counted. George, however, was bat
ting GOar with the force of a pile
driver and the regularity Of a split
second chronometer. He went to sec
ond when the frightened pitcher tossed
four wide ones in front of Glasscock's
sharp eyes. Gillen had not made a
hit yet, but he started then. George
scored and Sammy went to second
Preston was determined to avenge
himself for his ignominious strike out
OF the previous trial and he swung
the bat at the first ball pitched The
ball did not tear any holes in the
horizon, but it went far enough so that
Mcfarland and Mccarthy looked
around when they got it and Preston
was at third base, in spite of the fact
that he turned his ankle passing sec
ond, and had to limp the rest of the
way. He went home on a hobble-dy-
| on hnfn fINn hn1
material use in the game. That made
the score seven to two, and no one
cared much when Flynn threw Spies
out at first. 1t was so unusual for
Flynn, you know, that it made him
feel good, and Heine probably would
not have gotten around anyway.
Goar dropped a good single back of
it in well, and the stalwart pitcher
scurried around to third, scoring on
Gray's fly to Mcbride. after Hogriever
had been given base. Mcfarland
was hit under the arm, and Mccarthy
sent a fly high. Mcbride and Glenal-
vim were both after it, but neither got
it. That filed the sacks with only
one out, and Roger was in pretty
tight place, but he struck out Capt.
Motz, and Wood hit to Glasscock, who
stepped to the sack with alacrity.
Holly's single and Gray's low throw
to second on DenZer's grounder, with
sharp infield grounder to Flynn by
Mcbride, gave the locals good start
in the sixth, especially as Flynn for
got what he was playing and neglected
to throw Roger out at second. Glenal-
wins single, although a short one, was
made the most of, Denzer coming in
from second on it, and Holly was
| ahead of him.
Stewart opened indianapolis half
with a safe one, but Hollingsworth
ran to the foul line back of Gillen
and took in Flynns fly in manner
distinctively Shugartesque George
made nice catch on Goar and Nyce,
who had gone into right when George
took Preston's place in left, caught a
hard one well back. 1t was nine TO
! three then.
