Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1897-08-25
haze ltaIl Notes.

The second and last game of this series
with the Cincinnatis will be played this
afternoon. McJames will do the twirling
for the Senators, while Dwyer or Ehret
will be on the rubber for the visitors.
The games scheduled for New York and
Boston yesterday were postponed ac-
count Of rain and will probably be played
today. making double-headers.
Analyze the game before kissing a hard
working player like Brown for almost
impossible play. The CHASTITY throws Of
Farrell and Wrigley, coupled with the
fumbles of Fox. were what lost the game
The visitors looked very natty in their
pretty suits, combination Of grey and red,
and conducted themselves on the field at
all times like gentlemen. The Cincinnatis
have many friends in this city, who are
hoping they will get into the Temple Cup
series.
Harry Weldon, the well-known and popu-
lar sporting editor of the Cincinnati En-
quirer. is travelling with the Reds and re-
newing acquaintance along the route.
Harry is firm believer in the Reds getting
up into second. If not first, place.
Jake Beckley was quite numerous with
his stick yesterday, getting in two singles,
double and home run. If Beckley con-
tinues the good work he has been doing
since Joining the Cincinnatis there is very
little likelihood of Manager Ewing getting
back on the initial bag
Dummy Hoy had a happy smile of
greeting for old friends Hoy is still the
good player he was while with the Wash
ingtons. He captured seven flies yester-
day, one of them making him duck his
head to avoid the sun. Hoy has played
that field before and is up to old Soils
tricks.
Manager Ewing had quite lengthy con-
versation With President Young in the
grand stand: while the game was in pro-
gress. but after the Red Legs had cinched
the contest. The umpire question was dis
cussed In many detzdls. President Young
taking BUCK. to task in a good humored
way for several allegations said to have
been made by him against the staff Both
parted, as uspaI. the, best of friends.
There Is no question about the Cincin-
natl 1nf1eld, Beckley, McPhee, Corcoran
and Irwin, being almost if not the best in
the League, in fielding sense. Everything
was handled yesterday with the acme of
grace and skill by this quartet, the error
charged to McPhee being dropped fly
back OF first base on, the foul line and ex-
tremely difficult. 1t Is, only McPhee that
would have got under it.
The coming games at Baltimore between
the Orioles and Eincinnatis will undoubted-
ly decide which club will finally roost in
second place. Manager Ewing and his
players know this, and will put forward
their best efforts to win a majority of the
games.
Jennings l.; out of the Baltimore club for
the remainder of the season on account of
Willie Keller had nail torn from \ finger
OF his left hand yesterday. Quinn and
O'Brien will go in as substitutes. and while
being good men can hardly fill the shoes
OF the injured players 1t looks like a
death struggle for. the Orioles to hold on to
second place.
Arson promised his friends in this city
that he would take four out Of the six
games played in Baltimore, but yesterday q
games look like poor start.
