The times., 1899-09-19

From an artistic standpoint the double
header played yesterday between the Sen
ators and the Exiles was not colossal
success. Yet it was pleasing to the 1000
spectators who were present for the rea-
son that there was some hard hitting and
some lively base running. The Senators
lost the first game by one point on account
OF their inability to hit Harper-a recent
recruit who pitched his first game for the
Exiles-at opportune time. This young
man pitched splendidly. His speed was
terrific and control excellent. While the
Senators made hits enough to win almost
any game, they were so scattered that no
runs were accumulated. The game won
by the Exiles, a ten-inning affair, was the
first one since August 25. when they won
O game from New York on the Cleveland
grounds. Joe Quinn stayed out of the
first game in order to try Kruger at sec
ond. The latter played a fairly good field
ing game, yet failed to make hit.
MCGEE, who was in the box for the Sen
ators. was very effective But one hit was
made of him up to the seventh inning.
Had he exercised good Judgment and given
Hemphill his base on balls he would have
won his game. Hemphill is hard hitter,
while Sillivan, who followed him at the
bat, is very weak. AS II was, Hemphill
hit for three bases, bringing in two runs,
which, in addition TO Duncan's home run,
gave them the game. The scoring began
In the second inning. The Senators tailed
twice on McGann's single, Freeman's dou-
bic, and Barry's base on error and out at
second. They scored in the fifth. Kilt
ridge singled, was forced by MCGEE, who
scored on Slagle's out and Mercer's sin
gle to centre. Their last run was made in
the eighth on O'Brien's hit, McGann's out,
and Freeman's single.
The Exiles scored one in the second on
q hit by Sullivan and outs by Duncan and
Iockhead. They were then blanked until
the eighth inning. when, with two men
on bases, HemphiIl drove them IN with a
fwo-bagger. In the ninth Duncan sent a
hot one into the bleachers for homer,
tieing the score. In the tenth they scored
the winning run on hits by Dowd. Harley
and HemphilI.
In the second inning Quinn went back to
second, sending Kruger to third with
Eaghey in the box, Irwin assigning the
pitchers position to Wild William of the
North, who was very erratic at the out
get, but finally settled down to business.
The Exiles got right down to business at
the beginning. Dowd went to first on
four bad balls, and scored on O'Brien's er-
ror- Harley singled and scored on Quinn's
single and Hemphill's fly to Freeman. In
the second they scored three on Lockhead's
home run, McAllister's single, Hughes
base on error. Dowd's out, and Harley's
hit which ended the scoring so far as they
were concerned.
The Senators scored their first run in
the first inning on O'Brien's double, Nc
Cams single, and Freeman's out. In the
second Barry singled to centre, went 10
second on Stafords out to Harley to third
on Manus' hit TO right, and came home
on passed ball making beautiful play.
Slagle hit for two bags, scoring MeManus,
and was left. In the sixth Buck Freeman
made another long drive for homer, max
tng his nineteenth. Barry hunted safely
and scored on Stafford's base on errors,
and McManus' hy 70 HemphiIl. tieing the
score. Mercer began the seventh on
safe bunt, o'Brien sacrificed, McGann out
TO DOwd. Freeman singled, scoring Mercer.
Barry went 10 second on third strike, scor-
Ing Freeman. and stole home on a passed
bali
Freeman's batting and Barry's base run
ming were the features OF both games.
Freeman, al bat nine times, made seven
hits, one being q two-bagger and one a
home run. This is the last game to be
played with the Exiles this season The
Senators viii rest up today and get into
condition TO tackle the Kentuckians, who
begin their series here tomorrow. The
score for the first game.
