GOar Pitched a Fine Game and Bat
ted in Half the Runs.

ted in Half the Runs.
Comiskeys men played a very dirty ar
ticle of ball yesterday but it didn't win.
The fans thought them an abusive, rUffian-
~ lot of players. In the eighth inning Lal-
ly woke UP to the fact that they were
pressing the limit and had Billy George
put off the field There was not the slight
est occasion for their abuse of the umpire,
who gave them quite two-thirds the best
of it all the way through. They were sim
ply sore at seeing the game slip away from
them and, apparently, had the full approval
of Comiskey in all they did. He sat on the
bench and allowed his men to openly black
guard the umpire, appearing not only to
countenaEce but also to encourage their
abuse. When Nyce deliberately caught
Reilly in the sixth inning and threw him
to the ground to prevent his scoring on
Goars hit Lally allowed the run, but failed
to fine the offending player as he should
have done. He was openly told by the St.
Paul men that he did not dare do thus and
so, and was threat with loss
of his position. After watching Co
miskey's gang play ball it can
readily be seen why they win about
all the games on their own grounds. With
crowd like the team an umpire's life up
there must be miserable one unless he
gives everything in sight to St. Paul, and
that he generally does according to all &C
counts.
MADE THE VILLAINS BITE DUST.
1t did the crowd a world of good to see
IndSanap polls rub it in on this unruly as
sortment of players While those five runs
were coming in toward the close of the
game there was a whoop and hurrah and
everybody taking part in it. Goar
pitched fine game and batted in half the
runs. He also fielded the box beautifully.
Flynn captured a long fly in the fifth which
Jack Glasscock intended for three-bag
ger 1t was a good catch. Motz took a
liner on the jump in the sixth which Hank
Spies put a good deal of vim into. One of
the amusing features of the game was
Glasscocks inability to hold pop flies. lie
dropped three of them in rapid succession,
escaping the error on one because it was
foul and the man afterward went out at
first.
indianapolis started away with run,
HogrieVer getting a base on balls and being
forced at second by Flynn, who was ad-
Vanced by Kahoe's out and scored on Hol
lingsworths wild throw to first of MOTIFS
grounder. Mcfarland walked but Stewart
struck out. ST. Paul tied at once, when,
with Mcbride out, Gasscock got d single,
was advanced by Georges out, went TO
third on a passed ball and scored on wild
pitch ParrOtt walked and Nyce retired the
side pitcher to first. Reilly flew to George
in the second and Eustace got base
balls, but was caught stealing. Goar hit
clean and Hogriever lifted one to left for
two bases, scoring him. Flynn flew to Nc
MR. REILLY'S ERROR.
The visitors took the lead in their half of
the second when, with one out, Spies and
Hollingsworth got singles. On the latters
hit Spies reached third Hogriever throwing
to Reilly, who had a good chance to catch
Hollingsworth at second. but threw over
Stewards head, letting both men score. Nc
Gill struck out, after which Mcbride and
Glasscock singled but George flew to
Hogriever. Indianapolis tied in the third,
Kahoe walking a starter. Motz hunted
out on strikes and McGill tried TO give Nc
Farland another base on balls, but Mac
wouldn't have it and drove a low line hit
to right for three bases sending kahoe
home. Stewart flew to Shugart and Reilly
to Glasscock. The game stayed this way
until the sixth inning, when Watkins S men
went to the front and stayed there With
one out GlaSScock dropped Stewards little
fly and Reilly hit hot one that glanced
off McGills NIT and both runners We're
safe. Eustace walked and the bases were
filled when Goar hit to left, scoring Stewart.
Reilly was turning third and would easily
have reached home, when Nyce blocked
ference and called Reilly in. Hogriever
struck out, HoIlingsworth fumbled Flynn's
grounder, but Kahoe's hard drive was
looked after by Shugart and the side was
retired with the bases full.
The eighth was the great inning and
before they were headed off. Eustace
hunted and beat it out to start with and
Goar followed with a beautiful drive TO
center for three bases. Hogriever and
Flynn walked and then Michael Angelo Ka-
hoe duplicated Goars hit and three runs
came in before the ball got back Glass
cock dropped MOTIFS fly and the latter stole
second. Mcfarland flew to Nyce and Stew
art to Parrot, Kahoe coming in on this
last out. Reilly got a base on balls, but
Eustace flew to Mcbride.
George got three-bagger in the st. Paul
half of the eighth and scored on PARROTS
grounder 10 Stewart. Motz dropped the
latters throw and Hogriever muffed Nyces
fly but caught Parrot at second Shugart

bases in the ninth, but was left and St.
Paul went out in one, two, three order.
