Among yesterdays noteworthy hap
penings was a change in the Bron-
chos batting order, report that kid"
Peoples has been turned into a Bron-
cho, vicious kick from Mike O'Con-
nor, an unexpected explosion of Jack
Phelan's career as an umpire and a
victory, for the Bronchos.
All of these occurrences are of in
terest to San Antonio.
Besides these, other things took
place, such as an eleven-inning fifteen
error game at Denison with Fort
Worth which was won by the Indians
by score of IS to II, a one-nothing
game between Galveston and Austin,
played at Galveston and won by Aus
tin. Then also the Kentucky Colonels
won another game.
All of these are things that don't
happen every day.
The Bronchorian leader has fallen
off in his hitting of late and dropped
himself towards the bottom of the list.
Win Clark, who has been hitting at
steady gait, has been put second,
while Bill Kohnle still leads off. The
rest of the team bat in their regular
order.
But the climax came when O'Connor
rushed at the umpire. And we all
know what rusher Mike is. Well, it
mustn't have been a very pleasant
rush, for it made Jack Phelan .::yump-
hisyob''-or, as they say in Wrench,
jump his job. But nobody could
Tocly of Con
and umpiring a game in which the
San Antonio team is a contestant, es-
pecially away from home, any decision
he may have made that did not meet
the approval of the Houston specta-
tors, the crowd would undoubtedly
accuse him of giving the game to San
Antonio and we all know how a crowd
can abuse an umpire. But Jack,
gave Houston the best of close decis-
ion, in order to dispel any suspicion
that he was partial towards the Bron-
chos, and then he heard from O'COn-
nor. 1t was enough to make any man
strike his mother-in-law and Jack
threw the indicator away and walked
off the field. Sid Proctor, the eX-short-
stop of the old Sunsets of 'S4 of San
Antonio, finished the game. And we
won anyway.
Kid" Peoples? No reason that boy
can't find a place with O'Connor's
herd. The Kid is used to travelling
with pennant winners, and although he
may not be quite up in the '97 cham
pionship game, it will not take him
long to get the Bronchorian article
down fine-and everybody knows what
that is.
The Galveston team played it's first
game at home yesterday after a trip
over the entire circuit, twenty-one
straight games. They We're on the
road continually since May II and of
the twenty-one games won six and
played a tie, being the last game with
Houston. Now, that they are at home,
the Sand Crabs will begin to improve
their standing in the percentage table.
Jack Huston has got too good an ag-
gregation to keep down long.
