Baseball Briefs.
Miller made a catch of Crockett's
| liner in the fifth that was a peach.
Ruby had nit and Mil drew a two
bagger that the left fielder was pre-
vented by good fielding from scoring
on. Then Crockett cracked out a hot
one over MIller's head that it seemed
useless to go after. Miller may have
thought so, too, but he jumped, reach
ed for it with his left hand, and got
! it, cutting off two runs.
O'Leary and Schuler, Rock Islands
latest acquisitions, both of whom
have been introduced into profession
al ball here, were the heroes of the
town last night. OLeary's hit in the
tenth was a roarer viewed from every
standpoint. Schuler's run home from
| first capped the hit and formed a fit
ting climax to the game.
That is not the first time that
! O'Leary has shown his ability to bi1f
the ball in pinch.
Decatur Review: Charley McGill
got an offer from Boston this morn
ing. He was offered $500 n month to
finish the season, with the chance of
being held for next season. He has
not decided what he will do and has
Manager Pfeffer. Louisville also
wants McGiH. and Boston has made
overtures to Gus Dorner. Boston is
in the American league.
Manager Nicol plays the baby act
in his story sent home from this city,
in which he says his team was rob-
bed of the last game by Umpire Head
| Heads decisions were all against
Rock Island, as it happened. The one
in which Thiery was out 10 feet from
| third base and called safe was par
lticularly preiudicial to the home club.
After the close of the season Man
ager Pfeffer will take his team on a
little transforming expedition. Four
games will be played at Quincy and
four at Keokuk, Iowa. Should those
games all prove profitable a few more
games may be arranged for in the
northerr part cf the state and in that
case Manager Pfeffer will likely take
The team into Chicago and play some
cf the Independent teams there.
Tomorrow's game with Davenport
in this city will be the last of the
morning the team goes to Rockford
