Baseball Notes.
Might as well smile and bear it.
Come boys, ginger up, and get on
the coaching lines-and on the bases.
Let everybody get in the game, and
as Peachy Graham used to say,
Work hard"
1t is time for the turning of the
road.
Smith and Reisinger set an exam
pie of fairness in umpiring, despite
their respective interests, that some
of the professional umpires might
take lesson from. However, Rock
Island has one or two fair deals com
ing from Smith in the umpire line.
Rock Island has a good team of ball
players. If they will cvince as much
irons of the game have in them they
will win the majority of games they
play.
Graham is due to pitch tomorrow.
Hit the ball, everybody.
4 pitcher giving his name as Gle
mems, who was with a stranded east
ern team, joined the Rock Island
team today and will be given a try
out by Manager Donnelly some time
in the near future.
O'Rourke was callSej by Mil when
the latter slid to third yesterday and |
was so sore today that he did not
know whether he would be able to
play this afternoon.
Umpire w. \. Hickey arrived from |
the east this morning and went |
across the river this afternoon to
hold the indicator in the contest at |
Terre Haute will be here Tuesday, |
being an off day.
The Diamond Special team, com.
posed of some of the younger local
amateurs, claim a game from the
West Ends by score of |
0 to 0. The Rock Island team was
on the grounds across the river at
the appointed time yesterday after
noon, but their opponents failed to
show up.
