Regulars s, Subs 0

A very pretty game Of ball
was played on the South Third
street grounds yesterday after
noon by the team that played in
Gainesville against those who
did not play there, and who dub
bed themselves the "Subs."
There were present goodly
number of ladies who seemed to
enjoy the game to it's fullest ex-
tent.
The Regulars were first to the
bat and the first three men up
were thrown out at first base. In
the second, again only three men
faced the pitcher and were quick
ly disposed Of.
For the Subs, Peyser was CIV
en- his base on balls, was ad-
vanced base by bit by Brian
and both of them were thrown
out at third. With two men on
bases, Lummus hit fly to right,
which retired the side. In the
second inning for the Subs three
men were disposed OF in short or
der, two of them striking out.
lu the third and fourth innings
only three men went tc bat IN
each inning.
In the fifth, Finch famed out,
Munden received base on balls
and was forced out at second by
Nogt, and Dunn put the side out
by hitting to center. In the
sixth, with two men out and two
on bases, Lummus sent a sky
scraper to Mark, who retired the
side. In the seventh, Munden
made a hit, but it did him no
good AS the three men following
him famed at the wind. In the
eighth and ninth innings, seven
men only faced the pitcher, and
the Subs retired with nine goose
eggs to their credit.
For the Regulars in the third :,
Mays hit fly to the pitcher, Lo-
pez got to first on an error, stole
second and third and scored the
first run of the game when Ford
received his base on an error. In
the fourth, Lloyd Chaille hit for
two bases and scored on Stick
ney's hit. Mays and Lopez made
taliies and Ford and Jewett were
left on bases in the fifth. The
next inning was a blank. In the
seventh Lopez and Ford scored
on hits by Ford and Clark. The
next inning was blank. Two
more runs were added in the
ninth by Ford and Mark on hits
by Ford, Mark and Clark. This
was the only inning in which
Lummus was hit to any extent.
Jewett hit beauty over the
right field fence, but tried to take
too many bases and was thrown
out. Clark hit to deep left for
three bases and in trying to
make home run forgot to
touch his base, SO was called out
by the umpire. Score by in
