BY Associated Press.

Toronto, June S,-The 800 spectators at
Island park today saw one of the prettiest
games OF ball ever put up in this city, The
work of Dineen and Gillen I'm the box
was gilt edged, and the way In which they
We're backed up was extraordinary. For
ten innings not run or error was made
and the hits were very scarce. A drlzzlng
rain fell during the game. Score:

FASTENERS WON BY TWO TRICKS

They Gained Twelve Tricks in the
First Quarter of Twelve Boards,
but Had Only Two Tricks to Spare
at the Finish--PIay Was OF an Un-
usually High Character, as shown
in the Very Light Score Variations.

Washington farm. Witness what the
BOSTON Herald has to say about 1t:
Washington has turned over Harvey
Smith, who played third base last
season, to the Toronto farm. At the
first part of the season Arthur Irwin
waxed indignant when it was alleged
that Washington had any interest in
his team. but 1t is altogether too pal
pable when player after player is
turned out to pasture in his club"
That Bob Fitzsimmons would "um-
pire the Eastern league game in Scran-
ton on June 16' is an item that has
begun its rounds in the Eastern league
papers. The item does not contain the
information that Pompadour Jamesey
would play first base for Scranton on
that date, but he will and thereby is
precluded the possibility of Lanky Bob
figuring in the game. 1t is really
thrilling to think of how interest in
the game would cease If Bob should
drawl "Stri-k-e-r's out" on James af-
ter a third bad ball, or If James should
he declared out in a close decision
after filling the waist of his knicker-
bockers full of dirt on flve-yard steal
/ to second. If Corbett so far forgot
himself as to be a good player and
shook his fist under Bob's nose, the
crowd might be treated to a reversal
OF the Carson City argument. Lanky
Roberts services will not be needed on
the 10th.
BASE HITS.
Cheer up!
| Hully Gee!
| Bonner had eleven chances.
! And the Miners have lost four out
| of five.
The Miners haven't been shut out this
season.
Meaney earned the privilege of re-
naming in rightfield.
| Wellner and Boyd will do the turn in
the points today at Rochester.
How tickled Shannon and Bucken-
berger must be to think we're going
| to pay each visit
It's all right to get credit for having
played good ball and for having kept
Buffalo and Toronto in a perpetual
state of nightmare, but the pleasure is
little nasty without any victory for
wash.
The Scranton tribune. [volume] (Scranton, Pa.) 1891-1910, 1897-06-09

ashamed of the fact. 1t was a contest
that reflects as much credit on the loss
as on the victory and it will be
while before Torontians will witness
similar contest.
For ten innings neither team could
work a man across the plate, but in
the eleventh the Torontos took advan-
tage of a burst of generosity on the
part of Gillon who gave Lush and
White bases on balls after one man
had been retired, and they succeeded
in working the double steal.
TORONTo's RUNS.
The first run was sent in on Nc
Gann's slow hit to Bonner who was
late in getting the ball to Gunson.
Then MeHale punched out another
grounder OF the same kind and White
scored, McGann going to second. A
hit by Casey brought him in.
The Miners made a great effort to
pull the game out in their half. DAILY
batted for Gillon and drove out a
double. and Eagan a triple after Gun
son had gone out, but neither O'Brien
nor Beard could hit safely.
Giilon pitched a great game. Three
of the four hits made by the Toronto's
were very scratchy. He was liberal
with his gratuitous walks TO first
however, and this cost the Miners the
game. Dineen had fine control and
watched the bases in great shape. He
nailed O'Brien and Massey off first
after they had each made clean sin
giles in the second.
MEANEY THE STAR.
Meaney signalized his return to the
game by making two fine catches of
difficult flies pulling in with one hand
ball that looked good for Ii double
and digging another out of the dirt
after a hard sprint. Both teams field
ed finely, and not the semblance of an
error marked their work
McIIale deprived O'Brien of a triple
in the first inning by pulling in a ball
with one hand from the top OF the
fence. Gruber umpired a perfect
game. In the ten innings Scranton
only got two men as far as second,
whilst the Toronto's succeeded In get
ting around third once.
