Rock Island Argus., 1902-05-13

kay failed to sustain the claim of the
home team that Pattison pulled Null
laney off third base in the seventh
inning, and the crowd declared itself.
The decision probably cost the home
team the game. Mullaney was eject
ed for protesting and McGreevy went
to first. Rockford Mon by lucky
punching of hits in the eighth. Pre-
viously Bishop had been unfathom-
able. Score:

Team Arrives Home.
The Rock Island and Davenport
baseball teams arrived in the city this
morning over the Peoria, the train
having been held at Peoria for an
hour in order to permit them to make
the connection. The locals come back
exactly as they went away, no
changes having been made in the
personnel. Manager Donnelly has
recovered from the effects of the foul
he received in the eye at Galesburg
in the last practice game and was
able to take part in the last three
games. Hill, who spraincd an ankle
at Bloomington and has been laid up
since, has recovered so that he will
go back to the turf shortly. Mid
dleton was spiked in the foot i'm yes
terday's game and will not be doing
much for a few days. The other mcm-
bers are in good condition.
The team cannot be said to have
made a bad showing for the first trip
away from home, when all things are
taken into consideration. Manager
Donnelly is particularly pleased with
the work of his pitchers and he de
clares that there was but one game
| in which his men were out-batted,
and that was the game that Nickers
pitched at Decatur. Accidents were
largely a contributing cause in the
other games lost. There is talk of
strengthening the team in one or two
particulars, but the management will
not give out any definite statements
on the subject. If the contemplated
! changes are made. it will probably
he done during this week.
The locals spent the day resting in
order to be in the best of form tomor-
row. Nickcrs and Williams will be
the battery tomorrow.
In addition to participating i'm the
parade Mayor Knox is scheduled to
deliver the first ball in tomorrow 5
game. together with a few remarks
befitting the occasion.
The Evansville team will arrive in
the city late this evening.

Harry Newman. aged Ii, was fatal
Iy injured at Evansville by being run
