Base Hall Notes.

Heavy hitting won the games.
Dineen, Weyhing and Swain were all
easy yesterday.
The Senators had the Reds scared at the
start off of the first game
Sarcastic applause is a nice way to en-
courage player to hit the ball.
The Washington players are evidently
waiting on Farrell to get back in the game
Charley was out practicing yesterday and
may play in Philadelphia tomorrow.
Selbach Is felding up to his best ability
just now. and there is nothing that gets
away from him. The German Senator
would like to play in Cincinnati, and he is
probably showing Manager Ewing what he
can do.
Arthur Wagner hit like a good fellow
yesterday, but he is still weak in throw
ing to first. He goes after everything and
plays for all he is worth. but acknowledges
that third base is not his home position.
anderson IS not the same Handy Andy
of few weeks back. He doesn't swing at
the ball with his old confidence, and sew
eral or his hits recently have been fukes
But that is the usual luck that comes
Washington's way.
All the credit for the position Cincinnati
occupies today belongs to Buck Ewing
and no one else. He is continually coach
ing MS men from the bench and seldom
listens to advice from his players Ewing
is thoroughly familiar with all the ms and
outs of base ball, and when a PLAYER
doesn't do right he Is quick to pick out the
flaw.
Just think for minute that the Cincin-
natl club thought seriously of letting out
Dusty Miller this spring. He is un-
doubtedly the warmest boy in the Cincin-
natl bunch. As a fielder and hitter he is up
with the best, and when it comes to putting
ginger in his fellow players, there is none
better in the business The '.bleachers"
in right field at Cincinnati nearly drove
Dusty away from the town. but his good
playing this season has squared himself
with that cheap class OF critics.
Harry Steinfeldt took bid" McPhee's
place at second base for the Cincinnatis
yesterday and demonstrated that he is all
that has been said of him. OF course he is
is quite hitter, and is considerable of a
factor in the game on account of his snap
and coaching ability. Shin pads or no shin
pads, Steinfedt is first-elass ball PLAYER.
Fully 5000 spectators took in the two
games at National Park yesterday and but
