The Saint Paul globe. (St. Paul, Minn.) 1896-1905, 1898-09-11
STANDING OF THE CLUBS.

Until the ninth inning yeste-da Mil
Waukee appeared to have the game
with st. Paul at Lexington park, won,
but appearances are deceitful and
the Brewers were captivated by the
most coQuettish and faithless lot of ap-
Ieararces that ever Iured men on the
SIRENS shoals.
The Apostles did not get out of the
game with any considerable margin,
although by a batting rally they &C
CumulaIed one run, perhaps, Which
they did rot n5ed. Beyond winning the
game, however they carried off little
or no credit Shugart and Glenalvin
played as though they had been arrest
ed the night before, making eight er-
roIs in the first three innings, although
SEugart played a fast game after that,
seemI ely having to have some catar-
acts lifted from his eyes. Possibly he
did not have any eye-opener before the
game began.
They were q very lucky pair Of in
feld5Is that the team won out.
They started the fun the minute
Waldron batted the first ball, Glenal-
win shying at 1t like a half broken cot
at a trolley car. BY the time 1t was
brought back into play Waldron had
reached third, whence he scored on
BeaumOnt's drive, which went straight
into IsbelPs big mitt, but was pretty
hot to hold. DAILY put a safe one over
second and then the runners stole
base each. Beaumont scored and Daily
went to third on Shugart's wild throw.
Weaver sacrificed and scored the third
run for the inning. Shugart let Schoch
bat light one through him and Speer
hit q lucky one, which bounded over
GlenalVin's head. SchoCh was caught
off third on a feint to cut Speer off at
second.
Burke shot one at Leewe, who lost 1t,
and Rettger gave Geier base. Glenal-
vim hit one to Stafford, who cut on
Geier at second, but Glenalvin beat the
double Glenalvin stole second, but
Burke dared not come in on lsbeHs
1v to Beaumont. The locals hard luck
was apparent when Shugart, after lin
sng two hard drives out within few
feet Of the foul lines, but on the wrong
side, struck out with two on bases.
Shugart threw out Leewe, but Rett-
ger was hit by Denzer. Waldron hit to
IsbelI who threw to second for Rett-
ger, but Shugart dropped the ball.
Beaumont and DAILY hit singles ana
two more runs resulted.
Gluen and Preston lined out good hits
10 start the second for St. Paul. but
Gilien was caught at the plate trying
to get in on PrestOn's drive, which went
through Waldron at first. Spies new
out to Waldron and Denzer went out
or grounder to first.
Stafford drove one at Glen, and an
other tumble gave him a life. Schoch
hit to Shugart, and he too, lost the
ball. Speer tried Glenalvin, and the
sacks were full on errors. Shugart
settled down, however, and doubled a
pair on Leewe's fast grounder, al
though Stafford did score. Rettger
gave Isbell a sky scraper, and the
score was six to nothing.
Burke was hit by pitched pail.
Geier flew to Waldron, but Glen pat
ted one at Leewe that was TOO not 70
field. Burke went to third on Isbell
fly to right, but Shugart flew to Beau
mont, and the locals did not score.
DenZer had quit, Disguised at MS
fielding support, and he was saved FOL
today's game. Cross went Into the
box amid very unpromising conditions
and acquitted himself with credit; he
pitched a heady game, studied his bats
men, those of them he did not know
Of old, and until the ninth inning, ne
made monkeys Of the Brewers" as
the saying is. a.
WaIdron batted one in the air for
Burke, and Beaumont met slow one
for a light tap at Shugart. 1t should
have been an easy out, but Shugart
threw 1t badly. But DAILY forced Beau
mont out at second, and Weaver only
tapped a light one to Glen.
That was encouraging. Gil!en ano
Preston opened the fourth, as they had
the second with safe singles, Spies
gave Leewe a hard fly. but Cross met
the bali for fine drive to center field
Buck Weaver misjudged 1t, coming In
a little to meet 1t, until he discovered
that he had made a mistake. When ne
cot the ball into play again, George
