The conquered heroes returned TO Ma
tional Park yesterday afternoon and I'M
derwent another drubbing, this time at
the hands of the hard-hitting Quakers.
The Senators temperance on their na-
tive heath was unproductive of any en-
thusiasm among the faithful band OF
rooters still loyal to the losing club, and
the silence of death reigned when they
filed out upon the greensward to engage
their opponents.
Killen was sent to the rubber by Capt.
Mcclure and was hit hard throughout
the game In the sixth inning his work
was very ragged, sending the first three
men up to base on balls and these passes,
followed by successive hitting, allowed
the Phillies five runs-enough to win the
game.
Pratt, on the other hand. was exceed
ingly effective, only four Senators find
ing his curves for safeties. In addition
he struck out four men and gave only
one pass TO first on balls.
For the home team Jud. Smith carried
of the honors of the day, his work at
third being the only feature of the game.
in the second inning he made a great
stop of Flicks hunt and almost retired
the runner Again in the third inning he
killed of seeming two-bagger, hot as
Tabasco from the bat of the mighty
Lajoie.
Delehanty easily captured the laurels
for the visitors by his great stick work.
In the first inning he smashed out a triple
TO the bIeachers, in the fifth he laced the
sphere to center field fence for homer
and then drove in two runs in the sixth
with a timely single.
Kifen had q verbal mix-up with Jack
Gaffney in the sixth inning, which extend
ed into the seventh and finally resulted in
the Senatorial box artist being put out of
the game. Frank continued to play out
his hand of talk after this and Gaffney
then ordered him off the field. Mercer
was then brought in from the center gar
den and pitched the seventh inning, Dr.
neen going out into the garden.
For misjudging Monte Crosss long fly
in the fourth inning Donovan was put on
the bench and 'Jakey" Gettman sent into
right pasture.
