two out of the three games with oaK-

one of the most exciting seen On the

to the seventh inning the score stood
one to one, and both teams were play
ing grand ball. The Sacramentos made
but one error, and that was on a very
easy chance, so easy, in fact that 1t
was difficult for il is the slow, easy
chances that mostly fool a player.
A great crowd witnessed the game, AS
the Sacramentans are now the greatest
drawing card in the league, and a
more perfect day for a game could not
have been made to order-unllke the
day before, which was extremely cold
and foggy. 1t was very mild, with COM
paratively no wind blowing. big Mike

was expected Of him, if not more. lie
is a great man at the head of team
and can hit like-well, just wait until
he appears before a Sacramento au-
dience. On bases he is a star, as he
uses great judgment and is both fast
and daring. He expressed his opinion
that the SacramentoS were lihe
lot of ball players, and that any team
which defeats them will have to De
more than crackajacks.
Stulz made the most phenomenal
catch of what seemed to be clean hit
in the latter part of the game, and
was applauded to the echo.
Harvey pitched fine game, and was
ably assisted by Stanley, whose bril-
