That cherry pie at Louisville has becon

That cherry pie at Louisville has become
very tart of late, SO much So in fact, that
the Senators refused to have any of it yes
terday. although two offers were made by
the Colonies. 1t was the same case with
the New Yorks, who also have a dislike
for Kentucky pie. The translation of this
means that the ,Louisvilles defeated the
Washinstons yesterday in two games, al
though the Colonels are generally supposed
to be a weaker aggregation than the SEN
ators. the scores being to and 8 to 4,
respectively.
German pitched the first game for the
Washingtons and did fairly well. although
his usual bad inning cropped out; but the
men back Of him could not use the bat eff
fectively, although they fielded well.
Little Cunningham twirled another good
game for the Colonels, rot safe hit be-
ing registered off of his delivery for the
first four innings, and with men on bases
he was almost invincible.
Six blanks came the Senator's way in the
first game, but in the seventh inning they
got two runners across the home plate. In
this inning Mcclure started off with a nice
single to center and Tucker followed with
another to right, the ball going through
Wagners legs in right center. Mcclure
set sail for home, but was nailed at the
a close decision. Tucker went to second
on the thrown and then home on O. Brien :
single to center, Reilly, who had previous
ly walked, scoring with him. In the ninth
they got their third and last run on NC
CURES single to center, another by Tuck

on Farrelfs single to right, who batted in
Germans place.

solved his shoots and Blenders SO easily
that he was removed from the game at the
conclusion of the third inning, Hillary
Swain taking his place: The elongated
Ohio boy pitched good ball for the remain
ing six innings of the game. but two safe
hits being made off of his delivery.
Bowling. the new discovery of the Col
ol,els. started to do the pitching for his
team. but he also suffered almost as badly
as McJames, and he was sent to the bench
by Captain Clarke, who saw another vic
tory In sight and wanted to cinch it.
Chick" Frazer was tho pitcher that re-
Heved him, and it was all over but cashfng
the checks when he went to the rubber,
the Senators not getting man over the
pate for the six innings that followed. ~
In the first inning Setback reached first
on Staffords error and went to second
while the first baseman was recovering the
ball. He scored from that base on Wrig-
ley's nice single to center. In the second

base, Reilly sent him to second on q safe
che to left and he came home while O. Brien
