SANTA FE VICTORIOUS.

Score of 8 to q,

Score of 8 to 4.
On yesterday morning at $50 the
Albuquerque Browns left for Santa Re.
determined to win from the Santa Re
Centrals the base ball game scheduled
for that afternoon, but alas it was not
to be. Just as the crowd had determin-
ed that it was an easy victory for the
Albuquerque boys they went to pieces
and in the fifth inning, when the score
was 4 to 0 in their favor, Santa Fe
managed to gather together three runs
from a series of hobbies and a couple
of timely hits. 1nis put the crowd on
its feet and from Their on p~andemon-
ium reigned. With the encouraging
yells of the Santa Fe enthusiasts the
local team took a brace and played ball
like real ball players. They did not al
low the Browns to score any more
runs and placed what few hits they
had at good times and in safe places.
Another series of errors by the Browns
also helped them tally more runs The
outield work of the Browns was some
thing awful and the hitting of the team
generally was lamentably weak. while
Santa FEES fielding was excellent with
the exception of the first baseman.
who was not fast enough for his team
mates. The work of the two young
pitchers. Haverly and Rhodes. was
the best ever seen on the Santa Fe
diamond. The strike outs were in fav-
or of Johnnie Haverly. he having thir-
teen to Rhodes twelve. while the hits
charged against them was in V of
the Las Vegas lad, who was pitching
for the Ancient city team. Albuquerque
only securing four while Santa Fee had
seven to their credit against ,Haverly.
AS will be seen from the score by in
nings the Santa Fe Centrals failed 60
score until the fifth, at the beginning
of which Haverly, the Browns pitcher,
was hit by a pitched ball and quite
badly hurt. The ball struck him on
the left hip and bounded nearly seven
ty-five feet. He, however. stayed in the
game and pluckily pitched it out, but
il was plainly seen that after this mis-
hap he did not have the same control
and his teammates lost heart. Johnny
is quite a favorite among them and
every man seemed to feel his pain. He
is a good pitcher and with the same
game. without being hurt, would un-
doubtedly win.
The first base play of Jas. Cosgrove
was sensational and elected applause
on several occasions. 1t is needless
to say that Mcdonald and Worries play
ed their usual superior game.
The game throughout, with the ex-
ception of a couple of innings was a
beauty, and the crowd yelled itself
hoarse.
The Santa Fe boys appeared in their
new uniforms for the first time and
looked fine. The combination is gray
and maroon, with the words Santa re
Centrals' across the chest.
The double umpire system was used.

cisions.
On next Sunday afternoon the Santa
Fe team, helped out as yesterday by
Rhodes and Upton of Las Vegas and
Snapper Hale of this city. will play
at the fair grounds. The Browns will
strengthen a little, and again they are
determined to win. Games will be ar
ranged with other teams from other
cities if the citizens show a disposition
to support the home team, and good
gains will thus be seen during the en-
tire season. Base ball is the national
sport and is the principal attraction at
the territorial fair.
