A VERY CLOSE SHAVE
Red Birds Defeat City Team
by One Run.
A Close Contest Between Professionals and
Amateurs on the Diamond at The Fair
Grounds Yesterday.

There was some BALI played yester-
day.
The professionals who are camping on
the trail of the Red Bird team of last
year were in it.
Likewise the boys who know how to
play ball and who live in Raleigh and
are classed as amateurs were also in it,.
After the usual nine spasms had been
turned off. the score was five for the
professionals and four for the amateurs.
1t might have been score the other
way if the umpire had not called fly
over by the left foul flag a foul. A little
closer in and it would have done the
work for the professionals.
The line up for the Red Birds was
Pastor. IS; Soffle, 2b; Kahn, IT, Hook, 3b I;
Sherman. rf; Smith, 1b; Grant, cf Mey-
eTs, e. Charters, p.
The "Yannigans, as some one calls
the amateurs, filled positions as follows:
Brenig, SIS; Wynne, W., and CT; Murphy,
IF; Wynne, w. Jr., 3b; Simpson, %: Ar
rington. Id; Syme, 1b; BrockwelI. c.;
Watson. If; Thompson, p; Battle, p. Not
all of these played all the time but they
took turns at it.
The umpire's lot in this game, as it
reached the shank of the day, was not
happy one and the players clustered
about him as the bees do about honey, or
what is it they sing:
"You ur my honey honeysuckle
/ am thur TIT bee"
but in the case yesterday it was not an
caused the clustering.
The Profesh led off with a run in the
first inning, caused by Soffle's three bag
ger and Kain's single. After this for
four innings there was no more scoring.
The amateurs chased in one run in the
first, one in the second and two in the
third. Afte this they quit chasing in
runs and added little eros on their score
cards. In the first inning a single by
Murphy, followed by a three Dagger, by
Wynne, W. Jr. landed a run. In the
second Syme reached first on an error
and got home when Watson singled In
the third Brenig and Wynne, W., made
the runs
In the sixth inning the Profesh got in
s<f~ofruns. Pastor and Soffle were on
the sacks when Kahn batted good one,
scored two went in but Kahn was caught
between the bases. In the eighth Pastor,
after being deadheaded to first, worked
his way home, and in the ninth Smith
reached first on a single and scored On a
dandy that Meyers welted out in the
field.
The earlier part of the game was full
OF interest and somewhat snappy, but it
dragged in the last of the innings. Bat
tie did excellent work at the slab, as did
Wynne and Thompson for the Yanni-
gans, and in fact the entire team did
lang up work.
The Red Birds are getting together in
better fashion, and pull together wesl.
The rest of this week ought to put them
in coed shape for ball playing, and there
is certain to be interest in the game
played here Saturday, for after that
Genes the regular work in the State
League.
In the game yesterday the Red Birds
made five hits ard the Yannigans seven.
