alvin and ended the inning with the score
Z to 2 in favor of the Brewers.
Preston was out before Spies put a
clean hit back of short, but the next
two could not get the ball out Of the
diamond and no one scored.
Stafford hit to right field and went to
second when Preston let the ball go by
him. Glen threw out Mailman and
caught Shoch's fly, but Speer put a
grounder over second SAFE Reidy hit a
terrific drive to right field for three and
Waldron added another two-bagger to his
collection, all resulting in three more
tallies for the visitors before Nicol gave
Isbell foul.
Burke gave Weaver a run on a safe
drive TO left. but was forced out by Glen
alvin between two flies to the same field
by Geier and Lally.
TRIED PATTERSON'S ARM.
Patterson and Ritter superseded the
Denzer-Spies battery. Glenalvin's error
gave Weaver third base when he should
have been out at first. Gray went out
as Weaver should have. but Stafford
single added another run, the next two
going out.
Isbel hit a high fly. which Shoch, who
was playing all kinds of ground, took
right out from in front of Hallman, in
spite of the latter'S captaincy. Preston
and Ritter flew to the outfield.
Milwaukee went at Patterson again
In the seventh. Speer led the german
with single and Reidy hunted. Isbell
let Patterson's throw go through and the
pitcher filled the sacks with four wide
balls and balk Weaver's single scored
run and there would have been others
but for snappy double play that Geier
started on Gray's grounder.
Lally was hit by pitched ball at the
opening of St. Paul's half. but the next
three hit into the air and Dan did not
go far.
Milwaukee's ninth was brief. Patterson
threw Stafford out and Geier looked after
Mailman. Shoch flew to Burke
Shoch had thrown Schwartz out and
Reidy had famed Patterson. when Stat
ford let Burkes grounder get by him and
Geier followed it with magnificent home
run drive to the cycle path near the Lex

sent CONSERVATION to the heart of any
pitcher at any other stage of the game
That pulled the locals score up to four,
where it stood when Glenafvin ended the
contest with pop-up for Gray. The
