 The Hartford's Courants account or yesterdays game is as follows:
 In many respects the baseball game yesterday was as good as any seen here this season. 1t was close all the tune, there was some remarkably inc plays, good pitching was evident and the hlt- ting was clean, The Waterbury infleld cut off several drives that looked good and three fast double plays were made. One of them made a lot of trouble for the Hartfords as it was confidently ex- pected that the game would be won just at that time.
 1t was in the sixth inning and the score was tied. McCallister led off with a bit. Hardesty sent one to Slater and the first-baseman fumbled 1t long enough for the Hartford man to reach the base. Truby attempted to sacrlnce and bunted to Gilligan. That young man clearly had case of blind stag gers at this juncture, as he threw the ball to third when there was no possible chance to catch McCallister. This move put Truby on first and filled the bases, with none out. Miller is not known as a pinch hitter but it was thought he might lift an outfeld fly. He hit an easy one to third. McCallister was stabbed at the plate and the ball was thrown to first in time to catch Miller. There was still two on base but Ed mondson could not send them in.
 If the Hartfords had not worked a sharp piece of base-running in the fifth the game would have been over in the ninth and Waterbury would have won, to o. After two were out in the fifth Reisling was given his base. He went around to third on a hit to right by Mylett While Gilligan had the ball in his hand My1ett ran towards second. The Waterbury infield did not know what to make of this move and acted as if they had never seen anything like it before. Gilligan looked around in bewildered manner and finally threw the ball to Fitzpatrick. The latter start ed to run Mylett down. Reisling was meanwhile taking it easy on third.
 
 patrick ran after him at full speed. He ran so fast that he could not recover himself when Reisling made a break neck dash for the plate and Fitzpatrick never threw the ball to the plate. Reis- ling scored the run ana then My1ett was run down and put out.
 Waterbury's only run came in the fourth inning. Old Pete Kiernan led of with a clean drive and Garry neatly sacrificed. Pop Slater, who did the most banging of the ball on his side, rapped out nice two-bagger and Kier- nan scored. Fitzpatrick went out to first and this advanced Slater to third. Quinn made a hard drive but Fitzpat- rick pulled the ball down and an extra 7nning was necessary. All Waterbury Hid in the tenth was to have a man walk to first after two hands were out. Reisling was up first for Hartford and he perished at first. Mylett poked out a safe one and McCallister hit another That sent Mylett around to third. Hardesty cracked one that the outheld- CTS could not get under and Mylett came in with the winning tally.
 MeAndrews. Fitzpatrick aad Kiernan made some of the best stops ever seen on the diamond. The Hartfords played well in all departments and no error was visible. In the seventh inning Quinn was hit by a speedy pitched ball and he dropped like a shot. He looked as if he was knocked out but he soon arose and rubbed his arm. The Water bury players did not want Quinn sent to the base but Ashe gave his permis- sion. Ashe did well as umpire and there was no fault finding to speak of.
 Young Corbett saw the game and he had an ovation when he reached the ground. He sat with the Hartford players and after the game they said they would like to engage him as mas- cot. Attendance. 600. Scores
