Spec.al Dispatch to The Post-Intenlgencer.
TACOMA, Nay -g.-Tbe last ball game
OF the Spokaae-Tacoala series was played
here today the attendance being about
500. The weather was Threatening and too
Geo. for ''iimbering up. Spokane lett the
field. victorious by a score Of 10 10 p.
The visitors leave here with three gases
out OF four 20 their credit
For ths visitors Pitcher Leach was first
put n the box. but at the end of the
second. after allowing the local team three
hits and three runs, at the same time
giving six baismsn bases on balls was ge-
tired and Ryan substituted. The latter
finished the game. but was wild as a
March hare. He allowed ten men to get
10 first base an called balls. He was
found for four singles. and struck out
eight men Kelly ceugh. for the two
pitchers and held his place down well
getting a bad mark for only one passed
ball
For Tacoma, Andrews and Klieber were
the battery. The former gave five men
iirst base on called balls. and struck out
four OF the Spokane team. which all told
made eight hts, four being by Turner
klieber was crippled from a hurt received
yesterday and did not show up 10 the
same good advantage behind the bat. Three
passed balls were scored against him. but
his excellent delivery to second base TO
cut off base runners redeemed his other
weakness
Manager Work covered center field and
did 1t SO Well that ne earned a yell of
encouragement from the bleachers His
running catch Of a long fly By Semper
was feature Of the game.
Telling stick work was done by Work
and Klleber for Tacoma, Gates, Daily
and Andrews also helping out with
single each. Turner, for the visitors, got
three singles and a double out OF FIVE
turns at the bat, and Darby found the
pitcher for two singles. Aronson and
Kelly received credit for one hit each.
Umpire 0'Toole was wide on balls and
strikes at certain intervals. His eye
would be good for a while, and then he
would call ball or a strike witaout much
apparent regard to the facts. 1t seemed
to be O'Toole's off day. judging from his
decisions on the pitchers efforts to cut the
plate. At least, that is the claim of men
On both teams.
In the second inning Fielder Reynolds, of
the Spokane team. was perhaps seriously
hurt hard out-shoot from Pitcner An
drews struck him on the side OF the head
and brought him 10 the ground like u
butchered beef. He was carried off the
field insensible. After regaining conscious
ness he was very i'll. He was hurriedly
removed to the hotel, and IS now under
care OF a physician.
The error column was against Tacoma.
Haverty, on first base, made three mex
cusable bulls" and Lyons. Andrews and
Daily each made one error. The work
done by Lyons at short would lead an Or
binary man to think he had never stood
on the diamond before. While trying to
stop an easy grounder he fell all over il.
fumbled, laid down, ciawed about and at
last got to his feet TO see that his little
sport had been very expensive.
Tomorrow the Portland team will play
here for the first time against the home
nine. One game is called for 10 a. m. and
the second for 2:21 IN the afternoon. The
Spokane team VIII play in Seattle tomor-
row.
