Over a thousand people watched the
contest between New Haven and Derby
at Savin Rock yesterday afternoon. In
the assemblage We're a large number OF
Derbyites, who came down to the game
to encourage Battam by their presence.
The latter certainly needed all the en-
couragement their presence afforded,
for never was a ball player apparently
more cordially disliked by crowd of
cranks than the Derby captain. His
every action was greeted with Kisses
and catcalls. and he was undoubtedly
happy when the game was ended.
Although the crowd was evidently
ripe for mischief the game happily pro-
ceeded without any marring incidents.
New Haven won by a score of 10 to g.,
having piled up a total of sixteen hits
off the visiting twirlers. These evident
ly had an off day. Clancy opened up
the game and occupied the box for two
innings. In that time he allowed sew
en- safe hits and the home team was
just getting on to his curves. He was
replaced in the next by Johnston, who
somewhat more effective. For the next
six innings New Haven made about two
hits an inning on an average.
Ashe pitched for the home team and
allowed but eight safe hits. Most of
these were made in the eighth inning,
when Derby scored four runs.
The fielding of the visitors was very
poor, they making a total of six errors.
New Haven made total Of four errors,
of which two were unexcusable ones by
O'Brien, who covered right field. One
of OsBrien's errors was made in the
eighth inning and was accountable for
two of the four runs made by Derby
In that inning. A fly knocked by Bat
tam fell short and bounded along the
field toward him. He missed it and it
went past him, rolling for quite dis
lance in among the trees Instead of
running after it and fielding it O'Brien
with a great pretense of disgust threw
down his glove and allowed Derwin to
recover it just in time to save third
man from crossing the plate.
A number of brilliant individual
plays were applauded, one of which was
a stopping catch of fly by Lawlor af-
ter long run. A pretty one-handed
put-out was made by Denny the veter-
all Dali prayer, WIZ Caught w Icy Idp-
ping on throw from home.
New Haven scored five of her six
runs in the second inning. Clancy &C.
cupied the box and was touched UP
for six safe hits, two of which We're two
baggers. Glenn led at the bat and sin
gleA He advanced to second on Clan
cy's error Of Wiley's sacrifice hit, the
latter also gaining first. Bagley singled
and Derwin scored Glenn with a pretty
hit. Ashe got his first ON an error by
Rawson. Wiley was caught mapping at
second by Denny. Parent then knocked
out a two-bagger and Derwin scored
Lawlor's single scored Ashe, and two
Dagger by Luchia brought home both
Parent and Lawlor.
New Haven scored five runs after
that, one in every inning.
Derby scored it's first two runs In the
second inning. Denny singled and af-
forwards gained third upon Rawsons
fly to Derwin. Killeen f1yed to Derwin,
who accepted a difficult chance and
missed, Denny thus scoring. Scannell
singled and Killeen scored upon an en-
ror by O'Brien. The score:
NEW HAVEN
