game of baseball from Sacramento yester-
day by a score of Z to 3. The game itself
was the queerest combination of hits and
errors, stupid work and marvellous field
ing. and, above all, ragtime decisions by
r. Levy, umpire, that has been dished up
this season.
Between 5000 and 1000 people submitted
TO the latest mode of eXtortion by the
Market-street Company and went to Rec
reation Park, and for six innings they

score was tied twice in thesearly stages.
The play was slow and uninteresting to
the last degree. Then the performers
took sudden brace. and from that time
on until Harvey, the pitcher gave the
game away in the eleventh, it was fast
enough TO set the most critical fanatic to
yapping.

however, that Harvey suffered severely at
the hands of the umpire, but notwith-
standing he struck out seven men.
Iberg was touched up for thirteen hits,
two less than his adversary, but he only
fooled two batsmen and gave the same
number of bases as Harvey.
Krug started in at short but after two
errors in the first inning which cost as
many runs and another in the second that
gave Sacramento another tally he was
removed to center field. and Pyne was
brought into short. The change was a
surprise in both ways, for the doctor put
up a good game in his new position, while
Krug's work in the outfeld was of the
sensational order. Twice he tielded man

marvellous throwing. If Krug is wise he

Harvey at third. Egan drove one to
score. After Stanley had popped up a
fly to Riley, Iberg gave Stultz a pass,
filling the bases. Krug got in another
bungle when Mclaughlin drove one to

1berg TO Sullivan, ended the trouble for
the time being. In the second, however,

Sacramento knotted the score in the
sixth, Sheehan making the circuit on his

From that time on until the eleventh
inning not a run was made, and the game
was as pretty an exhibition as could be
wished for. Then came the explosion.
