but sixteen men batted. Chesbro was a
puzzle. except in the sixth inning. when
the locals touched him up for three
hits, which netted two runs. Two more
hits were made in the second and fifth
innings.
Wrigley was the star. playing mar
vellous game at snort, accepting eleven
chances without the semblance of an
error. With Dolan he made some plays
which bordered on the sensational. Sey-
bold played q great game in the field.
while the throwing to bases of Steelman
was a feature.
Richmond started its run getting in the
first inning. Wriglcy lining a corking
