Richmond and Norfolk played another
hot game Of ball at BroadStrect Park
Yesterday. and though the visitors put up
an exceedingly strong game and maue
not an error, Richmond walked of Win
the victory. The Johnny Rebs played
well from start to finish, and with the
exception Of some rank work on the part
Of Mcdonald. they put up wonderful
game.
Schmidt did the twirling for Richmond
and he tossed the sphere with great
speed. He was trife wild, but he was
in fine form. and ne kept the Norfolk
hits well scattered. Mcfarland filled the
box for Norfolk and pitched good game
The locals didn't hit him with any great
frequency. and he held them down as

teams, and numerous good, long drives

down and changed in TO put-outs. me
prettiest catch of the game was one
made in the eighth inning by Mcfarland,
when with one hand he captured ny
from Hargrove's bat.
The game was really an exciting one,
but Richmond maintained the leau
