played game on both sides. There was
net much choice between the men. IL
was battle of the pitchers and pats
men. The fielders got things that
came their way without trouble, max
ing several excellent plays. Leach ana
McQuaid put up a magnificent game
Gray made more than one remarkable
catch for Toronto and Smith made a
one handed stop that saved a hit and
probably a run. The throwing of yea
ger and Rothfuss was particularly gooo
while that of Duncan who first caught
for Toronto was noticeably bad. How
ever, his throwing had no effect on the
score as hits followed and the men
would have crossed the plate anyway
Gruber umpired an excellent game.
He missed one or two strikes as any
umpire will, and an occasional enthu-
siast could not contain himself, but MS
work is far superior to what Worcester
witnessed when the team last played
at home.
Leach opened with a fy-out to Wag-
ner. Kuhns got his base on balls.
Bransfield hit hot one over second for
single. Carr sent bounding
grounder toward Roat, which went
over his head. Yeager hit it out
mile to the left field fence for three
bases. Rickert snapped a grounder
past Hannivan. McQuaid made
pretty bunt which he beat easily. Hor-
ton drove double against the right
field fence and Leach on second time
UP that inning, cracked the ball TO
right centre for three bases. seven
runs were the result of the hitting.
Worcester did not score again until
the sixth. Meanwhile, Toronto tied the
score by good hitting. In the first,
Williams hit to centre. He took sec
ond on Wagners base on balls. An
out gave him third and he scored on
Smiths double to right. Harrington 8
quick return to second and Leach's fast
handling shut off Grey at the plate.
Two runs came in the third. Will
Iiams reached first on Kuhns' error.
Gray lifted the ball over the right field
fence.
Williams again started the scoring in
the fifth. He hit past Leach. Wagner
got in a double to left centre. Smith
got his base on balls, filling the bases.
Williams scored on a long fly to Rick
ert Hannivan sent a hot grounder
past third, which gave him two bags
and scored Wagner and Gray. Hannt-
van took third on a bad bound when
the ball was returned and scored on
Beaumont's fly to Rickert. That end
ed the run-making for Toronto.
The score was even each when Wor-
cester opened the last of the sixth.
Harrington placed pretty line drive
to centre. Leach laced the ball against
the right field fence close to the foul
, line. scoring Harrington. The little
fellow went round the bases like a mo-
tor cycle, and stood on third when the
ball got back. Kuhns cracked a hot
grounder past second and Leach came
nome with the last run of the game. 1t
looked bad for Worcester in the sew
enth with the bases full and only one
out, but Horton struck out Williams,
and Wagner, who had made two
doubles, hit a little grounder to Leach,
who tossed to McQuaid forcing Brown
as he came from first. The score:

A Race Between Kerns and Lewis is Not

Yesterday was a quiet day at the

Nothing developed during the day to
