have been a home run if he had not
fallen in the stretch.
Fifth inning. One on base, one out,
Nyce at bat. Home run.
They certainly made up for more
than his errors cost, particularly when
il is taken into account that he &C
cepted ten out of a dozen chances.
In view of these incidents, which had
much to do with the prevention of
mourning in the Sanity City last even
ing, an apology is respectfully rendered
to Mr. Charles Nyee, the more readily
in view of the fact that up to the
present he has not come up to the
grand stand, in the fashion of the cele-
brated captain-manage that Chicago
discarded, to call his patrons knock
ers" and his chroniclers liars"
1t was a hot close game, not perfect
in fielding, but always an open con-
test from the time that Balls tumble
gave Mcbride a life in the first, until
Boyle's drive in the ninth rested in the
glove of the center Apostle.
While the high wind was a serious
detriment to both pitchers work, the
cloudy condition which existed during
the first part of the game helped them
somewhat, and for time it promised
to be a small score contest in spite or
the wind. and the fact that it was too
cold for real sharp. snappy ball play
ing
1t was, nevertheless, a contest which
was enjoyed by the scant 400 people
who dared chills and pulmonary
troubles to witness it.
Carney pitched for Minneapolis and
his work was hardly better than that
of Sunday, while his support was
scarcely more enthusiastic. Ball start
ed the error column when Mcbride was
through batting at the head of the
opening card. Preston sacrificed, and
Carney did cover the bag. But he
then threw the ball into center field
while trying to catch Mcbride with a
sudden turn which nearly constitutes
a balk. The result was that the center
fielder went to third and then scored
on Nyce's fly to Wilmot
PARROT hit a hot grounder to the
east, but was caught trying to steal
second.
Ball opened for the Millers with a
hit, pinky punk fly which dropped
just behind the infield. Lally forced
him out with a quick one to Nyce,
and it came very near being a double
play, but Bud Lally declared Dan Lally
safe. Two were out when Miller hit
a hot one to Shugart and went to the
the ball back of Mullane and two were
left on bases.
The Saints went one, two, three. Lal-
ly made fine running catch.
Nyce presented Cassidy with a brief
riticed. Mullane threw bad one, Civ
ing Cassidy third, and the latter scored
or Boyle's fly to Mcbride.
The ST. Paul battery were spiked
guns in the third, and two were out
when Mcbride got his base on four
Carney tried to knock Preston off his
pins again, and then Nyce knocked
the ball into the Lexington avenue end
of the cycle path. If the secondbaseman
had not fallen just after passing third
base, he would have scored a home
run. AS it was, it made but a triple.
He scored subsequently, however,
when Carney got ratified as he saw
PARROTS -Jorgensen coming. Par
rott was again caught between first
and second on a palpable interference
by Pickett, which Umpire Lally, how
ever, refused to concur in. That made
it four to one.
Shugart sent Ball back to the bench,
but Lally was safe on gTounder
which bounded over Shugart's head.
Tony hit Wilmot with the ball, and
Miller's clean drive through left help
ed the Minnics. Pickett followed with
a single and it was four to three. A
wild pitch and Cassidy's fly to Parrot
made it q tie, and Minneapolis took the
lead when Kuehne's scratch fly dropped
six inches inside the foul line between
Parrot and Preston. Boyle went out.
Singles by George and Glasscock.
both clean. two flies to Miller and
some sharp work on the bases, gave
the locals two and the lead again in
the fourth. Mullane reached first on a
line drive by Cassidy, but was lost
trying to steal second.
Carney gave Nyce q pop-up, and Ball
waited for four that didn't suit the
umpire. Lally advanced him on
grounder to Nyce, but when he tried
TO cut third and run through the grass
to the plate on Glasscock's tumble. he
and his team were thrown out in the
field again.
Mcbride refused to take a base on
balls and smashed the sphere into an
