SPORTS OF THE DAY.

had crossed the plate with two run
ners ahead OF him. Burke was thrown
out, but Schoch, and Geier flew to
Beaumont.
Stafford opened the fifth with a sin
gle, a good grounder over short, but
was thrown out trying to steal second.
Schoch flew to Shugart and Speer
sent him a grounder, which was fielded
we'll. Glen hit one at Schoch too hot
to field, although the Teuton did block
ii. A double resulted on IsbelPs light
drive to Daily, and Leewe threw out
Shugart
The visitors did not reach first base
in the sixth. Cross using his skill to
its best advantage
Gillen flew to Beaumont, and Pres
ton fouled to Speer, but Spies hit a
hot one through Leewe, and let Cross
get out before the opening of the next
inning.
Cross lobbed the first in the seventh
at Beaumont, who was seized with an
irresistible desire to bunt. The ball
went in the air to Spies. Daily hunted,
too, but with better success, beating
the ball to the sack. But he was caught
trying to steal second, although the de-
cision was a little close at the sack.
Weaver few to Geier.
1t was the lucky seventh as of yore
for the Apostles. Burke opened it with
a nice two-bagger over Days head.
Geier flew to Weaver, but Rettger
walked Glen and the pair tried the
double steal. Speer threw wild to sec
ond, and Burke come in, while Glen
went to third. IsbelPs rap to DAILY
scored Glen, although Shugart's fly to
Waldron retired the side, still one run
to the rear.
Stafford's foul was taken with neat
ness by Sammy Gillen, but the locals
had some pangs when Schoch got two
bases on Preston's muff. Speer, how
ever, was thrown out by Cross, and
Leewe fouled to Spies.
Gilen fouled to Speer, and DAILY
threw out Preston. Spies hit to Stat
ford and Rettger covered the sack.
Only one inning remained. Rettger
opened with a grounder which passed
Shugart like a shot. Waldron tried to
sacrifice. but Cross cut off Rettger.
Beaumont drove the ball to center for
two bases, and scored Waldron, scoring
himself on Days good liner that went
a few inches too high for Gillen. But
DAILY ran too far on Viewers supposed
ly good drive to first. Isbell got Weav-
er, and then threw to Shugart Daily
was down on the ground between the
bases and was nipped for nice double,
which the Brewers thought little of, as
they had a lead Of three.
Phyle was sent to bat in cross place
and waited out four bad ones. Burke
hit to left field and Beaumont dropped
it. Geier drove a nice one over second
and Phyle scored. Glenalvin hit one
at Leewe that nearly tore the little
short stops hands off. That filled the
sacks. IsbeIl met the ball for good
drive to left field. Beaumont misjudged
it and it went over his head. Three
runs were in when Beaumont threw the
ball back IN and Isbell did not have
time to go farther than third for the

PRESENT TO INDIANS.
Game for Them Which the MiIIers
Should Have Won

MINNEAPOLIS, Sept. 9.-Minneapolis pre-
sented indianapolis with another game to-
day. The Millers should have won out with
runs to spare, for Parker was pitching q
much better game than Phillips, one Of the
best games he has put up since he has re-
joined the Millers. Phillips pitched Thurs.
day and won, and was put in yesterday to
cinch the last game. He pitched good ball
but did not deserve to win. Mcfarland dis
tinguished himself by twice putting the bail
over the right field fence for as many home
runs, once In the first inning and once in thS
eighth. The other hits were singles and
two Of them scratches.
The first run scored by the visitors came
In the first and was McFarland's big hit
In the fifth Allen walked, was forced out AT
second by Hickey, who got a life stole sec
ond, reached third on Phillips out to I,etcheP
and came home on Hogriever's single. Hog
gle attempted to steal and Fisher threw high
and into center. Letcher let it through his
hands and Hoggie scored. In the seventh
Letcher muffed Flynn's fly. and Aliens single
brought In the fourth run. McFarland's home
run, In the eighth, was the last for the In
dlans Carey's single, Letcher's sacrifice and
Reilly's single scored Carey in the second
IN the third Davis singled, was forced out
Dy Andrews. who went out at third when

Hickey fumbled Carey's grounder and Fisher
came home. Letcher hit for two bases and

AND TODAY INDIANAPOLIS.
HOosiers Are to Play at Lexington
Park This Afternoon.

The St. Paul Base Ball club will begin its
last series for this year with the league lead
ers, the Indianapolis club,Sat Lexington park
at $3.50 this afternoon. Denzer, who pitched
but three innings Of yesterdays game, will
probably be in the box for the locals. Man
ager Comiskey said yesterday that three
games would be taken from the Hoosiers the
next three days, showing that the local man
ager has not lost confidence.
Isbell had been trying to make hit all
day without success until he got the smash
in the ninth, which cleared the bases. That
was really a home run, but as under the
rules, the game ends as soon as the winning
run is over the plate, it had to be credited
as a three-sacker.
The Milwaukee series resulted: Milwaukee
the 10 games played IN St. Paul
All through the game up to the ninth St.
able to unload them over the plate. The
ninth, however, was totally different.
Glenalvin and Shugart almost broke a rec
ord by making eight eros in three innings
The former redeemed himself, however by
making three nice hits, the one in the ninth
being very opportune. Shugart may be said
to have been overworked He had fifteen
chances.
ninth. A double play in that inning kept
their score down a trife.
Burke's catch Of Waldron's fly in the fourth
was beauty.

to take in the judging Of fly balls.

INDIANS STILL In FRONT,
Though the Cowboys Keep steadily
Right at Their Heels.

With ten days of the season left Indian
apolis and Kansas City are right together the
former having an advantage Of half q game.
IL still looks as If the Missourians would win
on account Of their being at home. 1t must
not be forgotten, however that the Hoosiers
have a slight advantage in the teams they
meet. Kansas City has ten games with three
of the leading teams, while Indianapolis has
three games with St. Paul, three with Kansas
City and four with the comparatively easy 81.
Joseph outfit. 1t may be fight to the very
last game and the whole thing may hinge on
the undecided Detroit-Kansas City game, now
crediated to Detroit by President Johnson,
but whose decision may be reversed by the
board of directors
Milwaukee may as well be declared out or
it, yesterdays game having practically ended
that teams chances for the flag. 1t is within
eight games of the end of the schedule and
it can play only seven OF these.
Columbus hangs onto fourth place by hair,
but is doing this in part by failing to play
Its games 1t has already passed up seven
games which it cannot play at all, four with
indianapolis, two with st. Joseph and one
with Milwaukee. 1t was able to play three
games in a single day with Detroit, COM
paratively easy proposition, but refused to
play off one game with Milwaukee and two
with Indianapolis which it had time to play.
st. Paul has eleven games yet to play and
would get fourth place If Columbus could be
induced to play it's games. The only teams
that can complete their schedule of 40 games
are st. Paul Kansas City, Minneapolis and
Detroit The record to date follows;
