Hannivan struck out. Wally Taylor, a
sick man a few weeks ago, put Roat
out of the game and took a whack at
Lampe. He sent out single, on which
two runs scored. Beaumont got i'll
another and Lampe died. He gave
Butler his base on balls, and hit Will
liams, who was sent to bat in Best's
place.
Bannon came up again. He hit a
grounder to Klopf. The latter made his
only error, and more scores were reg
istered. The bases remained full when
Wagner put in his second hit of the
inning, a line drive to right field. But
Ter scored on that, and the bags were
still full, with the score 10 to II and
two men out. "Reddy' Grey came up
to the bat. Lampe deliberately quit and
walked out of the box. Horton. was sent
in. Grey hit double to right centre,
which F'risbee couldn't reach, and thre
runs crossed the plate. Kuhns had an
excellent chance to retire the side as
Smith hit him an easy one. Grey
wasn't 10 feet away. Kuhns tried for
the batsman, however, and made a
wild throw. Immediately after, he got
another chance. Hannivan sending a
grounder in his direction. 1t was an
easy thing to stop, but Kuhns let 1T
pass, and another run scored. Taylor
came up again, and again made SIN

Horton helping by throwing wild when
Frisbee shot the ball into the diamond
The agony ended by Rickert taking
down Beaumont's fly.
An even dozen runs was the result
of the hitting and error-making and
Lampe's fear to put the ball over.
Worcester had three to tie. Sharrotts
base on balls and Frisbee's home run
gave two, but they stopped.
Lampe gave Bannon a base on balls
in the first and he was showed around
Roat's single in the fourth with But
ler's base on balls, hit and wild
throw by Boyle, gave two runs. Grey $
base on balls and a muff by Rickert
added another run in the fifth.
Worcester's runs came principally by
good hitting They slaughtered Best,
but ran bases poorly, and should have
made many moro runs. Frisbee's hit
ting was wonderful. He got two dou-
bles and two home runs, and would
have had another hit on a bunt bail
which he could beat easily, but Rickert
tried to score on the hit and was out.
Carr nit well, but was slow on bases,
allowing himself to be caught twice on
first. Bransfield and Klopf also
smashed the ball, although the latter
was not fortunate in his hitting. He
drove them out like cannon shots.

lures of the game.
