The Saint Paul globe. (St. Paul, Minn.) 1896-1905, 1897-07-06


Two snappy and quite eXpertly play
ed games of base ball were witnessed
yesterday in the Twin Cities, the at
tendance at the two aggregating 10000
in both contests St. Paul proved vic
tor, thus maintaining second place in
the league contest. Minneapolis pitch
ed Hermann in the morning, and he
was not as effective as Phyle, for st.
Paul, in deceiving the opposing bats
men. In the afternoon the consular ag-
gregation pitted Hutchinson against the
Saints, evidently concluding that he
was the only pitcher who could win
from the Apostles, as it was his third
game in five days. That is, it would
have been if he had stayed it out, but
in the third inning he was batted as
vigorously as was to be expected from
his overwOrked arm, and Figgemeier
succeeded him in the fourth. Isbell
held the Millers down to five safe hits
and won his game.
The two victories Of yesterday now
give the Saints the possession of one
OF the seven series with individual
clubs. st. Paul having won eleven out
OF the twenty games scheduled with
Minneapolis for the season.
