Other Games.

The Judy Brothers baseball team of
Winters and the c. P. Nathans of this
city fulfilled the expectations Of the To-
cal cranks yesterday by playing one of
the best games of the season on the
Oak Park grounds, the former winning
by a score of to Z.
The weather was anything but favor
able for large attendance, yet the
grand stand was comfortably filled by
a well-pleased audience. The tourna-
ment games being played on these
grounds are now first class and the
best seen here this season.
The Nathans played a good uphill
game yesterday, and if they would put
a little more ginger into their playing
they would put up a very creditable
game. As it is, they do not take the
interest in their work that they should.
The Nathans were severely handicap
ped yesterday by their pitchers suffer-
ing from lame arms. w. Hilbert start
ed in to pitch for them, but his arm
was so sore that he could not do eff
fective work, and retired in the fourth
inning in favor of McManus, who
pitched but one inning, when he also
had to retire. Vassels then went in to
pitch, and he did very clever work. The
Winters We're unable TO connect with
his delivery, and failed to score after
he entered the box
Baker pitched a steady game for the
visitors, and while hit quite often he
managed to keep his hits well scat
tered, and struck out ten men. The
support given him was excellent, eX-
cept in the sixth inning, when they
piled up five of their nine errors.
The outfield work of J. Briggs was
the feature of the game, his running
catch of Hilbert's long fly being very
clever.
r. Briggs also made a beautiful
backward running catch of an appar-
emily safe hit. There We're two pretty
double plays made, one by each side,
that Of the Winters in the ninth inning
ending the game.
The game was remarkable for the
number of men left on bases. a total of
twenty-five having died on the bags.
The Nathans were first to bat. and
scored q run on w. Hnbert's safe hit
and a base hit by McGraw and De
Vilbiss' error. In the last half the
Winters scored four times on two bases
on balls, three singles, an error and
Hanson's two-bagger.
In the third Baker hit safe for the
Winters, and Hemenway was safe on
McManus' error. Each advanced a base
on a passed ball and scored on Bend
er's long single.
In the fifth, two singles. a base on
balls, and Andy Just's long three-base
hit gave the Nathans three runs In
the last half the Winters scored two
on three single hits and two errors.
Score, s to 4.
In the sixth the Winters piled up five
errors, which Melted two runs to the
nome team, and in the eighth inning
they scored the last run of the game
on Schoenberger's double and Hilbert's
single. In this inning the Nathans had
three men left on bases.
In the ninth the home team had a
man on first base, with but one out,
but neat double play by J. Biggs,
Keithly and Bender ended the game
w. E. Newbert umpired the game
in his usual clever manner. none of his
decisions being questioned by either
players or audience. Following is the
score:
