PLAYING A FREEzE-OUT GAME
TOURNAMENT BASEBALL TO
GO TO SAN FRANCISCO.
But the Corkers and California
Markets Will Play Here
Tomorrow.

II rumors prove true, Sundays base
ball game will be the last of the state
Tournament series to be played IN TINS
city. 1t is said the managers OF lne
tournament have decided that mere
after all games shall be played only IN
San Francisco, as they want the oppor-
tunity to reimburse themselves Tor the
money put up for prizes. The county
clubs are drawing the largest crowds IN
the metropolis, and the committee Is
trying to manipulate matters SO thal
they will have all the profits
Manager Morton goes to san FRANCIS
CO this morning to inquire into the mat
ter, and should Sacramento be frozen
out, along with the other interior places,
he will take steps at once to cut loose
from the so-called tournament and or
ganize a State League, with Sacramen-
TO as the HEADQUARTERS. The other teams
likely to Join the new league, along
with the Corkers and Gilt Edges, are
the Fresno Republicans and the Santa
Cruz Club.
SUNDAYS GAME.
The corkers have finally decided to
put in their new Eastern pitcher. Nc
Namara. in to-morrow's game at Oak
Park. and hold Overmeyer in reserve,
should his services be needed. McNa-
mara comes highly recommended, and
is said to be a number one pitcher.
Overneyer needs no introduction to
Sacramentans, as his first work here
with the Lodis gave him a reputation
that he may well be proud Of He is a
speedy pitcher, does good head work,
and has some sharp curves.
Billy Newbert will play third base for
the Corkers, and he ought to
be able TO steady the young
sters at critical moments. Billy
viii strengthen the team greatly, as he
coach, and a good field general. Sur
geson will also add strength to the team.
He was somewhat nervous in last Sun
days game, and did not do himself JUS
tice.
The California Markets will present
their crack battery on Sunday in Iberg
and Peters The former is one of the
best twirlers in the State, and by the
San Francisco cranks is rated above
Hughes and Balsz, although he has
been hit harder than either of them.
Peters is a good backstop, and is the
player Napoleon" Pagan purchased
from another club.
Goslinsky has played in Sacramento
before. and Mammalian, Huty. Murphy
and Beckett are all we'll known by rep

club. and the Corkers viii have to hus-
tie to defeat them.
