The Worcester spy. [volume] (Worcester, Mass.) 1898-1904, 1899-07-21

Hartford in the run-getting, but there
were some great plays which cut off
more runs.
1t was batting that won the game for
the Worcesters. They knocked Hold
son around like a speedy bali among
frame Of tenpins, in the second and
sixth innings, when they scored enough
runs to double Hartford. In the second
they got six end in the sixth five, and
there were few bases on balls worked
in because Hodson wouldn't give the
men a chance to hit
OLoughlin was the umpire. He was
the ofilcial at the farewell game of the
Worcesters some two weeks ago and
he was decidedly off color He has
been through purging process some
where since. for he was as clear as a
nrst water stone yesterday. He didn't
have many hard ones, but some were
right
Worcester had one new face in the
game. Laid played his first game on
the home grounds. He played only an
ordinary game, but showed earmarks
OF being a good one. Miller, the new
pitcher sat on the bench. The only
chance the spectators got at him was
in the practice work before the game.
No estimate could be formed from that.
Sharrott showed up better with the
bat than before the departure of the
team. He got three pretty hits inelud-
Ing smashing double and was robbed
Of another by phenomenal catch by
Gatins Rickert played fine game,
although e hard hit fly got away from
him. Yeager and Klobedanz played
more than their share of the game. One
of the features of the game was a dou-
Die play which Yeager made to Nc
Quail. He took foul fly near the
backstop, while a Hartford man stood
on first. The runner tried to make Sc
cond. Yeager recovered quickly and
by speedy throw cut him Off Nc
QUAD also played fine game. He bat
ted in hard luck, however.
Hartford went first to bat and
scored III the second. Gatins looked
like a strikeout, but he cracked warm
one over Ladd's head for three. Kuhns
failed to pick up Stuart's gronnder and
Gatins scored
Yeager started the ball rolling in
the last half with one out He put in
a hot liner to right Harrington shot
one past third. McQuaid got his base
on balls and the bags were full when
Klobedanz came up stick in hand
&<lobedanz was popular and vigorously
spplauded He lifted one mile over
the fence but 1t was foul. The next
one he hit went to left center like a
six-inch shell and the bags We're clear
ed with Klobedanz at third. Sharrott
scored him by a drive past third. He
stole second prettily and scored on
RICKETTS, grounder between first md
second Carr also got hit but thera
was no. further run getting. Gatins
gave Worcester a run in the third. He
made pretty stop OF Yeager's ground
err but threw to the club house, and
Yeager made the circuit.
Neither side scored until the sixth
head. The latter vent after it but
Cavelle's hit scored him.
Worcester piled them up again in the
last Of the 6tn. Sharrott drew base on
balls. Kuhns and Rickert hit singles
and Carr got base on balls. Ladd
Yeager and Harrington put in singles
and all combined brought in four runs
Bad base running spoiled two more but
nobody kicked as Worcester ha6
enough. Klobedanz made single in
the seventh and Sharrott a double, but
Klobedanz couldn't make the plate
Yeager put in triple in the eighth way
out to the fence, but there were two oul
and the next man up went down easily
Hodson's single and Harrington's
fu nble, together with a throw to righI
field by Yeager gave Hartford one iI
the seventh. The throw was a good
one but the runIer prevented Carr COW
ering the bag. Singles by Urquhart
Wilson, Shindle and Massey gave two
runs to the visitors in the ninth.
