D0UBLE-MADER 4 DRAW
Senator's and Colts Each Won a
Game Yesterday.
McJAMES L0ST-SWAIM WON
The Doctor Not as Well Supported
as the Colts Twirler-Hiliary
Kept His Opponents Guessing All
the Iime-The New Men Do Good
Work Last of Chicago Today.

The double-header at National PARK yes
tcroay between Washington and Chicago
ended in a draw. each team winning and
losing.
The first game saw the South Carolina
doctor, Jimmy McJames, pitted against
Danny Frield, and although the Washington
twirler hac slightly the better Of the argu-
ment lie was not as well supported as
Friend. Nothing over single was regis
tered against McJ ames' delivery, while the
Colts pitcher was found for three -baggers
10y Gettmau and Selbach and two-bagger
by Gettnan.
Friend was more steady than McJames,
allowing but two men to walk TO first, dou-
tile that number OF Anson's men working
free pass to Tommy fuckers corner off
the Senator from South Carolina.
Gettman and FoA, the two new men tried
yesterday, created a good impression, the
former leading the Statesmen in batting
on the day, cracking out four hits for
total CT seven bases in the two games. He
also accepted four chanes without the sem-
bldnce OF an error, at one time saving
home-run hit 10y plucking a fly out of the
barb wire in frontof the bleachers.
Fox also made his presence known at the
bat. getting two hits, and If his work of
yesterday is to be taken as a criterion,
Washington has gotten hold OF what has
been sadly needed for a long tine-an ar
tistic buEter. Fox's nerve in bunting after
two strikes had been recorded against him
reminds one of the oriole style Of play
iug. HIS success in dumping the ball yes
terday and beating it cut shows that u
has confidence in ns ability u hit the tall
in the proper manner at the right time.
Fox handles himself well in the field goes
after everything in sight, and when he gets
the bali Knows what 10 do with il. Being
a trifle unfamiliar with pla ying the second
bag he is as yet little slow in working
double plays but this defect Will no doubt
be rernedied after a little more practice.
In the second game Swaim's work on
the rubber was too much for the visitors.
Lange and Mccormick being the only Colts
10 daily with his delivery for more than
one hit, while Decker, Ryan aud Anson,
usually reliable hitters, could not find him
at all. TIT Wagnerites earned seven Of
their eleven runs OFF Briggs, while the soil
tary tany which saved the Ansonians frotn
a shut out was due 70 wrigleys error fol
low ed by a wild pitch and single.
Swain gave four bases on halls. Farrell
would not go up behind the hat after two
balls were called, which probably was re-
spBnsihle for two OF the gifts. Briggs was
touched up in lively fashion in the fourth,
Washington scoring eight runs.
This Afternoon AnsUn's aggregation make
their farewell appearance of the season in
tits city TOR the season of 81. Uncle Anse
wants the last game OF the series the worst
way, and il would not be surprising if he
should work Clark Griffith on the rubber
this afternoon. However, If Roger Bresne-
ran is pur in TO pitch for the Statesmen
Thornton will probably perform for the
Colts. Yesterdays scores
