Notes of the Diamond.
We hit Easton as well as Rockford
hit Miller.
Hoy made running catch that was
o. X and his throw home to cut off
Thiery was as good as they make.
Thiery is pitching today. We feel
that we have license to pound him.
1t is plain to be seen that Rockford
goes into the game with the greatest
degree of comPlaceucy when Elliott is
to pitch.
The leaders come tomorrow.
Ladies are admitted free Tuesdays
and Fridays.
Cedar Rapids opens here tomorrow.
Davenport will follow saturday, Sun
day and Monday.
Mullaney was practically all that
we had to depend upon in the in
field.
Tate is apparently getting his eye
on the ball again.
Hoy, as usual. was all there
The retirement of three men in one
inning at the home plate was a beau
tiful piece Of work on the part of
Arthur. who, by the way, is grow
ing to be more OF favorite each day
j. Ii. Rebsmen. the new catcher
signed from st. Joe, arrived this
morning with his wife and will take a
hand in this afternoons game. He
will play in the field and change with |
Catcher Arthur.
Manager Sage has made local fin4 !
in twirler. He is said to have re-
ceived an offer from an American |
league team, but refused because he
objected to playing professional ball.
He is an eastern college man. and
through the influence of relatives, |
with whom he is stopping here. has
consented to take place, temporari-
ly, at least, on the Rock Island team.
