The Saint Paul globe. (St. Paul, Minn.) 1896-1905, 1898-08-01

st. Paul Wrea1ed some slight revenge
On the Brewers yesterday at Lexington
park, and particularly sweet was the
soothing draught to the parched throat
of Hon Fricken, who has been aching
for forty-eight hours for a chance to
feast on the warm blood of slaughtered
Brewers.
He had them at his mercy yesterday,
and he reveled in their helplessness.
His festal occasion was also thor
oughly enjoyed by the other members
or the team, who barbecued a pretty
boy named Reidy and sent him out of
the game after the fourth inning with
some "reminiscences of unmixed woe
that will send q fervent thrill through
MS entire being whenever the pastor
reads a text from st. PauPs epistles.
Nhen ReIdy was taken out of the
game Yesterday he was dazed. He had
watched from the carriage gate his
contemporaries toy with Comiskey's
men for two days. He went into the
contest bright, joyous and gay. Sud
denly the heavens darkened and the
armament became a vista of bases on
balls, through which flashed at times
the rudy glare of a base hit.
There was then produced from the
recesses of Connie Mack's employment
bureau young Brewers apprentice
named Mcdonald, who pitched one
game in ST. Joseph and then was hand
ed his Minister Woodfords by Manager
Fisher. Mcdonald demonstrated yes
terday that he was worthy a better
serving. During the four innings in
which he occupied the pitchers box for
Milwaukee the Saints were able to hit
his south arm swings safely but
once. Not a run was scored while
he was pitching, and the locals were
not very tired running either
1t was evident from the start that
the Saints We're determined not to re-
peat the f1asco of Saturday. Two fast
shots from Gillen and one clean throw
by Shugart put an end to three Wis
cOnSln grounderS without single
Brewer tapping first Campau, on the
other hand, waited out Reidy's evident
wildness, and was advanced to second
on pitch that cut the base line almost
equal distances from the plate and
third base. Comiskey, who was on
the bench, ducked his head to avoid
injury, and the ball went to the stand
Reidy made some signs with his fin
gers to indicate that the ball slipped
but that did not explain to Connie
Mack the way that Geier hammered
the ball into distant right. Campau
scored. Glenalyin sacrificed, and Geier
crossed the plate on Glasscocks short
one, which dropped a few feet in front
VI lAlC pate OHuSdIl new TO SchOch,
but the locals had a pair to draw to.
Weaver gave Geier a catch, and while
Stafford batted Hon for a safe single
over short pair of infield grounders
perfectly handled relieved the locals
from further annoyance by the Bad
gers. Gillen lined out a clean one to
left field, and Preston's light tap 70
Reidy advanced him another sack, al
though the big one was thrown out
Spies put a clean single into center,
and Gillen scored. Reidy gave Fricken
base, but Campau flew to Weaver
and Geier was thrown out by DAILY.
FTicken famed Reidy, and flies to
Campau and Preston sent the other
Brewers out as they came up.
Glenalvin was first to bat in ST. PauPs
half Of the third, and Reidy gave him
four bad ones. Glasscock forced Glen
out on grounder to Daily, which came
near bouncing over the second base
mans head, but was knocked down
by him quite cleverly. Reidy was in a
generous mood and gave Shugart, too,
four souvenirs. Gillen this time drove
the ball between Weaver and Nicol for
three sacks, and the burlaps were duly
delivered, two runs scoring ahead of
him. Preston's grounder through
short scored another and Spies hit a
slow one at Schoch, who tried to catch
Preston at second in vain. The Brewers
lnouSnI lndl they take Preston out
of trance at second, but while the
ball was being brought back from the
outfield on Speer's bad throw Preston
went to third. Fricken hit a sharp
one at Stafford, who threw Preston out
at the plate, but Spies reached third
and scored on Campau's nice drive to
Waldron's garden patch. Geier went
out on fly to Nicol. Nicol opened
the fourth with a drive at Gillen that
was too hot to hold Dalv few ~
Geier and Nicol went down to second
