The San Francisco call. [volume] (San Francisco [Calif.]) 1895-1913, 1899-04-03
A FEW INCIDENTS.

Brooklyn yet, as he is holding out for
more money. The local men hope he viii
not go East at all, for they look upon
him as being in the nature of cinch-, He
may be able to shut Boston out without
d hit, but he is nectar for the home team.
There was great crowd at Recreation
ever in the grounds except on football
days. All of them took their lungs with
them and found plenty OF opportunity TO
exercise the air pumps. 1t was Frisco
crowd, although the rooters were gener-
Gus and bestowed ample applause on
Peoples, Meaney and the other Sacra-
mentans for their clever work. Every
body stayed till the last man was out,
and they were glad they did, for the game
closed and victory rested with Uncle
men with a thrilling double play after the
visitors had scored one run and were
within one run of tieing the score.
The game was as fully interesting,
inning for inning as the one on the pre-
ceding day, and baseball may safely be
said TO be firmly re-established in the
hearts of the populace. Every half
inning produced one or more plays that
ignited the cranks, the star single plays
being a one-handed catch of a scorchinS
line foul after hard run by Peoples, and
fly by Meaney, in which the fielder won
by a finger tip. Three double plays con-
tributed to the excitement, while the
comedy was furnished in the third
the plate, and, after being chased up and
down the line for time, SUCCEEDED ID IN
ReILiDG
of Sheehan TO back up Peoples.
Sacramento introduced another colt,
young ReitZ, a brother of the only Hank.
Like the National Lacquer, he covered
second and made a most favorable i'm
preston. He handles himself exceedingly
well.
For two innings the game ran alone
without hit or run, and then the Ma
tives took Hughes measurement and
batted out the game right there. Hart
man opened with q single, Fitzpatrick
scientifically sacrificing him TO second:
Pyne laced out a triple TO the left field
fence, scoring Hartman. Riley sent
grounder to Peoples, who sent the ball
home to head off Pyne, and for time 1t
looked as though II was all day with the
doctor. He finally managed to get back
to third Joshua in the meantime having
logged around to the second corner. Krug
drove a grounder TO Sheehan, who caught
Pyne at the plate. But Sullivan caught
the ball fair for double to right and
both Riley and Krug Tailed.
Krug let Sacramento have a run in the
fourth Meaney led off with a single,
stole second and reached third while Pee
pies and Doyle were being retired in order
at first on infield grounders. Hughes
Grove a liner into Krugs hands, but 1t
was too hot for him to hold and Meaney
reached home.
Frisco made its last run in the sixth
With one out Pyne made scratch hit
Riley flew TO Meaney, after which inter-
esting event Krug plucked another single.
Sullivan followed with his second double,
scoring Pyne. Hilderbrandt ended the
bombardment with high fly TO Shana-
han
the seventh on O'NeiPs tumble of his
grounder, a steal to second, third on a
passed ball and home on Shanahan' s
single. Their last run came in the ninth.
With one out, Doyle touched off double
and scored on Hughes single, being given
the benefit of a close decision at the plate.
The score:
