John Irwin and his men came from the
pastoral shades of Taunton yesterday after
noon to do battle with the Pawtuckets.
Likewise came several wise men to the
number Of 10, who came to encourage the
visitors and incidentally to make as much
---,-- 90 nossible on the grandstand and
let every one they f.-,n Massacbu-
sets. Toward the latter part OF v-, gare
they lost the power Of speech. One of tno
10 was rash enough to back his opinion to
the amount OF five-spot, and 1t was the
usual case OF before and after. Before the
gam, ne thought the Taunton team very
warm lot OF people. After the game he
thought that the entire outfit should be
released.
The game was not very interesting, and
had considerable of the schoolboy tinge.
The statement that the contest was not in
teresting is not entirely correct, for the
most interesting feature Of the work was
the umpire. A young man with a college
bred air, dark hair, look of care, and
with peculiar habit Of calling foul balls
fair, umpired the game, and exactly what
he would call next was "very much inter-
esting," Mr.. Delaro is gentleman, but
either poorly posted on the game or else had
bad case of rattles yesterday, for his work
was of a deep yellow tinge without any
coloring to relieve the monotony. Still, 1t
was his first offence in this city, and the
vigilance committee have decided to give
him another trial. The attendance was
not large yesterday, and probably the
voters, real estate owners, cranks and
small boys drawn up in company front
would not count up overl35O; and the pea
nut trade was, In consequence, poor.
Wilder occupied the box for the home
club and pitched fairly good game, and
his work showed that he is recovering
considerable Of his last years speed. His
support was not quite up to the standard,
however, and the judgment used by the
umpire on his drop balls did not tend to
encourage him. Buelow caught a good
game, and was accurate in his throwing to
bases. Mullen was put in the box by
Manager Irwin and gave five men their
bases on balls during the three innings he
remained there. Six runs were also piled
mp by the home team during this interval.
He was replaced by Fertch, who had con-
siderable speed and very level head. He
played q steady game, and the Pawtuckets
were able to make but four hits during the
remainder Of the game. Two of these
however, were for four bases, but at the
time they were made the bases were empty
The home team made one run II the first
inning. Weisbecker led OF with a single
but was thrown out at second when he
attempted 10 steal. Mullen gave Beaumont
his base, and he came home on two.
