In Their Game With Brain
erd Sunday.
About 1000 people turned out
Sunday to witness the game OF ball
between Brainerd and Little Falls
on the diamond in the southern part
OF the city.
The boys provided a large number
OF seats, which did not begin to
accommodate the crowd, over half of
which was obliged to remain stand
ing during the entire game.
Those among the audience pur-
chasing tickets, which were sold to
defray expenses, were presented
with very attractive score card,
the filing in OF which stimulated an
interest in the game.
The fun began with the visitors
at the bat, and when the game
closed the score stood:
Brainerd ..........O 0 0 1 1 11O-
Little Falls ......3 % o 5 l3x -12
Following Is the line up:
Little Falls Brainerd
Bourassa. catcher. Conner
Terrell. pitcher.

Willing. ......second base. .McC leary
Neuman. go. third base. ...... Lawrence
Hutchinson. ....sh ortstop.. Dresser
Graz l..... right field. Dewey

Droskowski.. left field. Murphy
Throughout the entire game the
playing Of both teams was good,
with the exception OF the last half
OF the sixth inning, when Brainerd,
who was in the field, made several
errors, which allowed five members
of thesAOme team to cross the plate.
Up to this inning the game was ex-
citing but when the score became so
different, the playing did not seem to
be as good. f.,
The first inning was a whitewash
for Brainerd. They only got as far
as second base. Little Falls made
three runs. During the second and
third innings neither team scored.
Brainerd made a score in the fourth
inning and one in the fifth, while the
home team was shut out.
In the sixth inning we changed
things about by whitewashing the
visitors and at the same time cross
in five men over the home plate.
Each team made a score in the
seven tn inning. It was in this in
ming that Brainerd changed pitcher.
Luchim was growing tired. He and
Dewey, who was playing right field,
changed places. In the eighth inning
Brainerd scored one man aud Little
Falls three. In the ninth inning the
Brainerd boys went to the bat
with the score standing 4 to II in
our favor. They failed to change it,
80 tho above was the final score.
Terrell and Bourassa both did
good work. They are an excellent
battery. Terrell has lghtstrike-outs
to his credit, while the Brainerd
boys returned home with three.
Among Brainerd's best players
was their catcher, Connen. They
scheduled Engelbetsen but made a
change previous to their arrival.
Brainerd seemed to be weak in stop
ping grounders. They usually held
on to all others that came their way.
The decisions OF Umpire Brown
caused Brainerd q little uneasiness
along, about the fourth inning.
They claimed he was unfair and I'M
reasonable. Their players refused
to go into the field, SO Herbert New
man did the calling off from the
middle of the fourth inning to the
close of the game. Aside from the
usual mishaps, no player was &C.
riously injured.
Gravel was handicapped by a
sprined ankle, but nevertheless he
was in the game all the time.
Bourassa was hit in the forehead
by a ball thrown from third base.
1t dazed him for a few moments, but
he soon took his position behind the
bat.
The boys are after a game with
St. Cloud. They are trying to al
senge for one at this place next Sun
day. 1t would undoubtedly prove
interesting. for ST. Cloud has a
strong aggregation.
