The Saint Paul globe. (St. Paul, Minn.) 1896-1905, 1899-08-14
GAMES EBB AND FLOW.

The opening game of the last series of
the season with Minneapolis will be
played at Lexington at 3:45 this after
noon. Katoll will probably be in the
box for the Saints, and it is expected
that Danny Friend will represent the
Millers in that position.
Glenalvin was badly hurt in his COL
lision with Camel and will probably be
out of the game for the rest of the sea-
son. He was taken to st. Josephs hos
pital, where his dislocated elbow was
taken care of, and, while he will be able
to get about almost at once, he cannot
play.
Comiskey was still away in Duluth
yesterday, so that he knew nothing of
place him at second is not known unless
it should be one of the Duluth or Su-
perior teams. 1t is also possible that
Frank, who arrived yesterday, may be
sent to the right garden, Preston to
third and Geier to second base. While
this would not make perfect inffeid, it
may have to be resorted to.
The fans that witnessed Patton's
pitching are inclined to the opinion that
Manning was a very lucky man to get
him, and it is the general impression
that he will develop into little short of a
wonder when he gets used to the Western
league ways. And Manning also has a
catcher in Gonding, who plays fast
game, fields well and throws to second
with all kinds of speed and accuracy
While the Saints got three earned runs
yesterday while the Blues were gathering
in but one, it is the general impression
that it was a lucky game to win with
those seven errors.
Kansas City got both it's runs yester-
day by fiunks. In the second inning
Burns was on third base and Gonding on
first, with one out. Patton struck out as
Gonding tried to steal. Spies threw the
ball. but Glenalvin. instead of throwing
TO the plate, chased the runner getting
him just after Burns had touched the
plate. In the fifth Hulen hit one a short
distance along the left foul line and Is
bell got it too late, but threw anyhow.
the ball going wide of first base and
through the wire fence east of the right
bleacher, the runner trotting home.
4, -
Patton is full of ginger, pitches avery
swift ball and seems destined to make
his mark
Shugart was doing some great short
stopping again yesterday. He accepted
his ten chances eXpertly.
"Artie' Ball would be a mighty handy
man in these parts just now.
The st. PauI-Kansas City series ends
ten to eight in favor of the Cowboys
President Ban B. Johnson is sending
out an official standing of the Western
league clubs which is incorrect He
makes the st. Paul-Buffalo series nine to
three in favor of st. Paul. st. Paul won
three straight from Buffalo in the open
the second series. ST. Paul won two out
of three in the first series at Buffalo
and one out of three in the second series
there. This makes the series stand eight
to four in favor of st. Paul.
There were five double plays in the
game yesterday and would have been six
had not Glenalvin muffed Gonding's fly
in the second
Kansas City and Milwaukee have no
more league games scheduled until the
18th. They might have added a little in
terest to this afternoons contest by re-
naming and playing off at Lexington
park their Fourth of July game before
the regular st. Paul-MnneapoIis game.
Hulen's work is greatly admired in ST.
Paul He is certainly one of the fastest
shortstops in the Western league
