came over from Baltimore yesterday and
departed again last night with a victory
won from the Senators to their credit. The
game was a one sided affair and the locals
were never in the fight after the fifth in
ming. Manager McGraw has fashioned
great team from the material left over
after the Brooklyn team was formed and
he deserves much credit for the showing
which the Orioles have made thus far in
the race. It is evident, however, that the
diminutive manager fully appreciates the
importance of his position, and from his
actions on the ball field one might infer
that he considers himself the entire team.
Dinneen was first tried in the box by
Manager Irwin, but he could not control
his balls nor his temper, and in the seventh
Baker was sent in to relieve him. Baker
failed to stem the tide and the contest de-
veloped into a walkover for the visitors.
Nops was in the box for the Orioles and
he pitched a good, consistent game all the
way through He had excellent speed and
curves and exercised good control for a
left handler. Crisham caught him in good
style and his hitting and throwing to bases
Cassidy led the locals with the bat. For
some time past the first baseman has been
hitting at a terrific rate and unless the
other Senator's rapidly improve with their
| stick work he will soon lead the team in
batting. Padden also hit WELL while in
the last inning Barry made the longest hit
| cf the day. q three bagger to left centre.
| Freeman's batting has taken a sudden
slump, and Mcclure is not hitting at the
! e. lI of 7 afr hon cd 1,.if
Seem to be hard propositions for the Sena-
| tors anyhow.
| Athertons playing at third and Keister's
work at shortstop we're the fielding features
/ of the day. Sheckard made some good
| catches in right field and Slagle some
| equally as good in centre. O'Brien's work
at second did not show any improvement
over his old-time Washington form, and
| it would seem that he is the weakest man
| on the Baltimore team.
| The Senators We're the first to score,
! getting a man around the bases in the
second inning. Atherton led off with hit
past McGraw, but was forced at second on
| McGuires hit TO La Chance, the catcher
reaching first. Freeman hit to centre field
| for one base, and Cassidy followed with a
| single to left Mcclure scoring. Dinneen
! flied to Scheckard, and Freeman was
thrown out at the plate, while trying TO
score on the play.
The visitors tied the score in the fourth.
With one man out Scheckard doubled to
centre and reached third on Keister's out,
Bonner to Cassidy. La Chance then sin
gled, scoring Scheckard. O'Brien singled,
but the two were left on bases by Girls
hams strike out.
The visitors got two more in the fifth.
Nops singled, McGraw got his base on
balls. and each moved up a bag on Holmes
| sacrifice Brodie singled and Nops and
McGraw scored. Scheckard hit TO Bonner
and was thrown out at first, and Keister
flied to Freeman
| In the sixth they added three more. La
Chance fouled to Mcclure, and Dinneen
presented O'Brien with a base on balls.
Crisham tripled to centre, scoring O'Brien,
and after Nops' out came home on Nc
| Graw's single TO right. The Oriole mana
ger went to third on a wild pitch and tall
lied on Holmes single to right field
Holmes was thrown ait while attempting
to steal second, retiring the side.
In the seventh the locals succeeded in
getting another man around. After Free
mans strike-out, Cassidy, Baker, and
Padden singled in turn, but the first named
| was the only one TO reach home, Slagle
and Barry being easy outs. Baltimore add
ed three TO its string in the seventh on
one single, a base hit, base on balls, and
an error by Bonner.
BY the combination of luck, base hit,
and an error, the locals made one in the
eighth, bringing their total up to three.
They were unable to do anything in the
ninth, and it was unnecessary for the Wis
itors to play their half Washington will
play in Baltimore today, and Friday the
two teams will be here again. After the
game Friday the two teams leave on their
second Western trip. The scOre
