AT CENTRAL PARK.
A Wretched Game, Full Of Errors
and Stupidity. Was
PIavad.

About $500 people watched the game at
Central Park between the Fresno kepub-
icans and the Bushnell Alerts. The
FIesnos, in their desire to field the ball
and play the game, made errors, and
many occasions IN not trying to do any,
thing. consequently they are credited
with but two errors.
The features in the game were Schmeer's s
work at short. He made three phenome-
nal stops. Chance at first for the Fresnos
did great work, making the only two runs
for his side In the game. Chances first
run was made in the first half OF the
fourth. He was hit by the pitcher and
gwen first. Mccarthy was the next man
up and was retired at hitting to the
pitcher, Chance going 10 second. Hayes
struck ball into the air TO the left OF the
pitcher and three of the Alerts went for
il, The ball coming down between them.
Ii was fielded to first and Hayes was re-
tired. In the meantime Chance was
going and Weffers seldom ran faster. The
ball was at first all this time and the
Alerts were badly ratified. Before they
were aware of 1t Chance slid over the
home plate and tied the score.
The batting honors were divided be-
tween Hayes and Ha1die. Hayes in the
first half CT the sixth caught the ball fair
on the nose. 1t was a deep driver 10 the
center garden. Before Hayes quit rum
ming he was at the third bag. Hardie's
smash was over the left-held fence in the
last half of the sixth, and he was given
two bases. Hanlon at third for Fresno
| made a great catch in the last half of the
| htth inning, capturing a hot one from
Moskiman's bat, picking it up neatly
when it was about to touch the ground.
Tyler the man with chrysanthemum
LOCKS, twirled five innings for Fresno. 1t
was in the fifth inning that the men from
the raisin center went TO pieces. The
Alerts found Tyler for four base hits,
and when the run-getting was stopped
| by the retirement of Bird at first they had
| added three to their score.
| In the sixth that great twirler Thomp-
| son was put in the box and in two in
| nings struck out three men, including
| hard-hittirg Hardic.
There was any quantity of kicking, and
at one time it looked as if the game would
| be given to the Aierts, Mccarthy refusing
TO play. Every body was out of humor,
the spectators, officials on the grounds
! and the Fresno players.
The Fresno players state that thev were
! robbed out OF the game by Q m pire Gagus.
| They assert that his decisions did them a
great injustice and were made purposely
| in the interests of the Alerts.
| The following tells the story:
