TWO TO NOTHING.
SAN JosEs SHUT OUT GILT
EDGES.
But the Latter Won the Game
In the After
noon.

JUST little shut-out.
Inat was all the San Jose's did to the
Sacfamentos yesterday morning at the
oak Park diamond
San Jose =, Sacramento 0.
It's. too bad 1t couldn't have been
worse.
But 1T can't be helped. Accidents Will
happen in the best regulated families.
StemWinders will pick up errors, and
umpires will see double regardless OF
the brand of bath they take. It's all
In the game.
The jacksonville babies did similar
trick three weeks ago with Grandpa
Harper in the box, but it was unfair IN
San Jose to spring an understood cy"
clone on an unsuspecting public, where
nothing of the kind was down on the
bills
Andrews looks insignificant when
placed alongside Chief Borchers, but he
is a corker Three measly hits were
all the locals could do to him, and up
to the fifth inning not a man reached
the initial bag.
Harvey's work in the box was equally
as effective as Andrews. While he oc-
casionally gave a man free transporta-
ton to first, he more than made up for
it by tanning others out. Just three
little hits were all the visitors could
take off his delivery, but the FateS
(personified in Umpire Long and Sec
ond Baseman Stulz) were unpropitious.
Long probably did the best he knew,
but what he didn't know would make
an interesting volume. He was raw
on balls and strikes. but distributed
his favors to both teams alike. mum.
Der of close base decisions also fell to
him, and while he was undoubtedly
right on most of them, he went wrong
on one, and as it favored the visitors
to the extent of retiring Splinter Nc
Laughlin at second, the crowd very
successfully abused Mr.. Long, and
made him sorry he ever accepted job
of umpiring at So per.
StulZ, however, was the primary
cause of disaster. In the fourth inning,
after Harvey had scalped Anderson,
Hanlon sent an easy one down to
Stulz. Stulz tossed it into the air and
while O'Connor was trying to scrape it
to earth again, Hanlon landed on the
cushion. Then Hanlon started on to
second and during a lot of juggling,
which for lack of a better name is
responsibility cannot be traced to any
particular player-he kept on to third
and landed safe, according to Mr..
Long.
Then Dalrymple spun another to Stulz
who, fearing that he would get the ball
in the air again, threw it on the
ground, Dial safe, Hanlon scoring. Dial
subsequently scored on McGucken's
safe two-base drive to left field, and
the run-getting was over.
"Corned Beef Eagan, though he
picked up two errors, retrieved himself
by a neat double in the fourth inning.
Harvey worked in his '9S form. In
the first inning, with one man out and
the bases full, he retired the next two
men up, and repeated the performance
later in the game. Considering that the
local people picked up six errors while
the visitors were taking one, it is no
wonder that the score stood as fol-
lows:

stated that he had subscribed for the
paper and had not received it, He pro-

he tired, he was clean grit. He did
nobly and should have received encour-
agement instead of stony silence. Come

morning had evaporated, and even with
luck and Charley Doyle on it's side.
and with Eagan, Sheehan, Stulz ond
O'Connor, and all the rest of the gang
playing the game, the crowd refused
to yell.
The local people took two runs in the
third inning, two more in the
fourth and another in the sixth,
and there they stopped, while the San
Joses rolled up cipher after cipher I'M
til when they went to the bat in the
last half of the last inning they had
| nothing to point to but nest of nice,
big goose eggs. But when they looked
| at those eggs they woke up, and it was
well for the local fans that they did
not look earlier in the game.
| In the second inning Sheehan flew an
apparently safe one to Graham in right
| field. but the Professor got under it and
doubled up by mailing Stulz at second.
| In the third Mclaughlin got life on
O'Dea's low throw of batted ball,
stole second, went to third on Harvey
safe bunt Harvey got to second on
O'Connor's sacrifice, and both runners
scored on ODea's tumble of Eagan's
red-hot grounder.
In the fourth Doyle drove into right
field for a base and took second on
Shanahan's sacrifice. StulZ flew a high
| one, which Huston dropped, and Shee-
han tore off a twobagger, scoring
Doyle and landing Stulz on third. Nc
Laughlin dropped a safe one in the
center garden and Stulz crossed the
plate.
Again in the sixth the locals pegged
one. Shanahan poked safe shot to
left field and took first, stole second an

hans sacrifice and walked in when
Andrews presented O'Conner with a
base on balls.
1t was in the last half of the ninth

they stopped they had the local fans

Hanlon flew a long, hard one to Har-

Then the San Joses did what they
should have done earlier in the game
| They brought out Chief Borchers to
bat instead of Catcher Kent, who was
| troubled with an imaginary ailment.
The Big Chief had blood in his eye and
he smashed the first ball passed up
by Doyle.
And such, smash! Years and years
ago the immortal Casey (may he never
be forgotten) made such a hit, and
three weeks ago Philippi, the hardest
hitter of the National League, made
another, and it lay with George Borch-
ers Sacramento product, to duplicate
them. And he did it.
That ball scared fully twenty feet
over the left field fence and was picked
up a hundred yards beyond it. The
cover was split and broken into strips
and shreds and the ball itself was
elongated to about the shape of Gu
cumber When found it had no SEM
blance of a baseball.

OH. WHAT A DIFFERENCE.

The darkest hour of the night is the
hour before dawn. The gloom that set
tied over baseballdom in the early
morning, was dispelled in the after
noon, and the locals won by score of
to f.
The game, which was played before
one of the largest crowds of the sea-
son. was scientific argument and well
contested by both sides. The local peo-
pie sent Charlie Doyle into the box,
knowing full we'll that he could be re-
lied upon to do his part, even though
meteors fell. The San Joses, who in
the morning had won with Andrews up,
sent the boy into the breach again
They evidently had forgotten, or had
yet to learn that there is such a thing
as too much of good thing. Expe-
rience is a good educator, and the San
Joses are wiser now.
