Both the games between the Senators |
and Quakers at National Park yesterday
were won by the visitors. The first was
a batting match, and the locals had the
best of it so far as base hits are concern
ed. but errors by Padden and Cassidy
turned the tide of victory Philadelphia
ward. Four pitchers were used up in the
affair the visitors knocking weighing out
of the box in the sixth inning, and the
locals sending Donahue TO the bench at
the conclusion Of the same round. The
game was enliyened by hard hitting and
fielding that was at times brilliant and
AT times miserable
Atherton made the play of the day when
he leaned over the grandstand railing and
gathered in foul from Delehanty's bat
The catch was wildly applauded by the
1000 spectators and the third baseman
was given one OF the greatest ovations
ever accorded a Washington ball player
Numerous good plays were made, but the
lustre OF those Of the locals was tarnished
by bad errors. The Quakers helded well
in both contests, a wild throw by Bern
hard being their only costly misplay OF
the day.
Slagle lead in the first game with the
bat, getting four hits out Of five times
up Cassidy also hit we'll, his portion be-
ing three singles in the first game.
Delehan;y swung his bat with the yigor
of his earlier years. and found Weyhing
for a home run and Dinneen for a three
bagger in the first contest
In the afternoon contest Piatt was the
one bright star around which all the other
consultations reyolved The left-handed
twirler was absolutely invincible, and only
thirty-one men faced him throughout the
nine innings. Two base hits and one
double was all the locals could get of
his delivery. and not one OF the Senator'S
ever got as far as third base during the
game He allowed two bases on balls
and struck out three men. He was sup
ported in grand style by his team, Chiles
being the only one of the Quakers TO go
wrong.
Mercer pitched a great game for the
Senators, but it was all in vain. He gave
one OF the best exhibitions Of fielding ever
witnessed on the local grounds. Three
times he covered first base and received
throws from Cassidy and also had seven
assists to his credit The one error was on
an extremely difficult chance
Philadelphia scored the first runs OF the
day in the second inning After Chiles
had flied to Barry. Flick hunted and beat
IL out Lauder flied to Slagle. and Nc
Farland followed with a single to left.

Cassidy. allowing Flick and Mcfarland TO
