San Francisco and Oakland broke even
in the two games played yesterday. the
locals capturing the morning exhibition
at Golden Gate after ten innings Of
nerve-shattering baseball, and the Dudes
taking the afternoon contest, as pretty an
illustration of the great American game
as could he asked for.
The morning game was a battle royal.

score was tied up. Then in the third.
with one man on the paths, he lifted the
ball over left-feld fence for two runs.
After that he sank into comparative OBJ
livion until the tenth inning, when an
other bungle on his part gave Hank s
men their winning run.
Another feature was the explosion of
DR.. MOskiman. The medico went in to
pitch. but was batted out of the box in
the third inning, Captain LANCE being
compelled to substitute Shea. The young
ster showed remarkable nerve, holding
jhe sluggers down to four hits. Twice he
cut them off after the bases were filed
up.
Fireman Fitz received about as lively a
cannonading as he had been subjected to
this season. but only in the second did

runs. Frisco came right back at MoSki
man and evened up the score. which was
united again for few minutes in the
third, Oakland making its last TWO tai
lies. San Francisco again tied it up in
their half and bid fair to win the game
right there, but Moskiman was relieved
Matters ran along in that condition until
the tenth inning, and had it not been for
Dunleavy S misplay the game would have
ended in knot, for there was not time to
play another inning and fill their engage
ment on this side of the bay.
The afternoon game, while not as thrill
ing as that of a week ago, was more scien-
tlflc by far. 1t was an ideal day for base
ball, the first really good day since the
opening OF the season, which was testi-
fed to by the presence of the largest
crowd that has passed through Recrea-
ton Park gates this year.
Moskiman again went into the sly for
the Dudes, and Notwithstanding his awful
treatment in the morning held the locals
down TO five hits. Iberg was equally eff
tecuVe. and had shade the better of the
argument in other respects, for he only
gave one base on balls to three for the
doctor. and he struck out one opponent,
while MOskiman did nothing in that line.
The game resulted in again placing
Ewing team in a bad way, for in the
fifth Hammond stopped foul tip with
the end of his finger and lost a finger nail
by so doing. DunleaVy caught the string
out, Shea taking his place in left field.
In the eighth inning Johnson stopped one

win.
