PITCHER CLARKsON WILD.
His Work a Strong Contrast to that
of His HOOsier Opponent.
Western League.


The Brewers deuded themselves for a
few moments in that ninth inning yester-
day with the idea that they were going
to repeat their performance Of Monday
They howled themselves hoarse, but Goar
only laughed and put the ball across faster
than ever. A couple of men on bases and
nobody out didn't bother him a particle
and though confronted by DAILY, who made
the fatal hit the day before, there wasn't
a suggestion Of quitting about his work.
DAILY hit down to Gray, and q double play
followed. Then Goar struck Wright out
and it was all over. From start to finish
he pitched a mastery game. Not a base
on balls did he give, nor was there even
an approach to wildness at any stage. But
two clean hits were made off him, the other
three being scratches.
In fact Milwaukee would have been shut
out had Mccarthy been able to do more
than hobble after flies. To his lameness
these two runs in the eighth must be
charged
Clarkson was wild enough to lose the
game. He sent five men to base on balls
two of whom scored. He hit another, and
had two wild pitches, one of them costing
the two runs of the men he sent to base on
balls. The Brewers gave him perfect sup
in the field, while Myers covered lot of
ground around third. Lewee played very
fast article of ball at short and the field
ing OF the visitors was generally of a bril-
liant character. Goars support in one or
TWO instances an; was not SO good, though the
grounder in the ninth, but made up for 1t
moment later by attending to the hot
end of a very fast double Flynn played
short, and had a tumble and wild throw
out OF five chances. He handles himself
well, however, and is as speedy as in the
and he win improve i Mott took a. ''i red
hot liner from NicoIs bat in the third and
Mcfarland captured line drive by Buck
gerous.
MCCARTHY MAKES HIS BOW.
With two out in the first Mccarthy came
to bat, and in response to applause hit
straight to center for base. Motz walked
and Mcfarland drove one toward right thas
would have been good for a run had Daily
not partially stopped it. With the bases
filed Kahoe swung a hot one to DAILY who
held onto it and retired the side
Milwaukee came close to scoring in the
second, when with two out Wright hit a
double to left and Flynn fumbled Lewee's
grounder Wright made the mistake of
trying to get In from second the error
home and run down. Motz was hit by
pitcher in the fourth and Mcfarland got
single hit, Kahoe hunted three fouls and
clever double play did the rest when
Stewart hit to Myers.
In the sixth Gray hit to the left-center
fence, out OF reach of even the ubiquitous
Weaver Mccarthy scored him with a long
fly to Nicol. Motz walked but was caught
stealing and Mcfarland flew to Lewee
The seventh was where Watknss men
landed the game. With Kahoe out Stewart
hit to right for a, base, and went to second
on wild pitch. Flynn waited for four bad
ones, and Goar drove a single to right
sending Stewart home. HogrieVer waited
and walked, filing the bases. Gray lifted
Flynn chased home on it and Hogriever
reached second as the ball went to the
plate With Mccarthy at bat Clarkson let
go very wild pitch and both GOar and
HogrieVer scored The latter was plaving
half way up the line between second and
third at the time. and got in only by a
long slide. Mccarthy struck out.
The Brewers saved a shutout in the
eighth, when Wright lifted a fly to left
that would have been easy for Mccarthy
had he been able to run. 1t fell safe, and
then Lewee hit one between second and
first that rolled safe because Stewart had
left his place to take the throw on Wright
steal of second Spear got a clean hit to
center scoring Wright Clarkson hit into
MOTIFS hands, and Nicol went out from
Flynn to AIotz, LeWee scoring on the play
Weaver headed a vicious one toward center
but Mcfarland got it.
With two out in the ninth Goar and
Hcgriever hit for a base each and GRAY
walked. Mccarthy, however, was easily
disposed Of from Lewee to Stafford In the
last half Myers scratched out hit that
bounded off Goar's hand just out of Stew
arts reach Then Gray fumbed Stafford S
error by picking up Days drive and throw
ing 1t to Stewart, who passed it to first
fast enough to complete very pretty
ers and Wright struck out. Score:
