The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1902-07-14

E-OR the. second time this season the
once invincible Honolulu Athletic
Il Club went down to defeat Satur-
day. The victors were the Male
Ilimas, and with the victory comes the
probability that the pennant winners
are still to be picked. Though the Ho-
nolulus still hold the lead, it is only by
small percentage. and another vic
tory on the part of the Kamehamehas
would tie the leaders.
The Artillery team which was to
have played the college boys Saturday,
players being detailed for guard duty
the weakened team therefore being I'M
willing to go into the game. A scrub
team led by Nigel Jackson went against
the Kamehamehas and was of course
easily defeated.
The Honolulu team was not up to its
usual form, and the Males played their
strongest game of the season, the work
of Clark in the box being surprise TO
friend and foe alike. The outfield also
was in fine form and the boys had on
their batting clothes. Neither side put
up a good infield fielding game, but
the Honolulus were particularly I'M
lucky in their errors and it was al
ways at a critical point in the game
that the Athletics were at fault
The game started off for the Homo
lulus in their old time form, two runs
being made in the first. After two
outs were made, Williams got toy first
on an infieId hit. and he was brought
home on Louis two-bagger. Louis
reached third on a wild throw and
scored on another wild throw by Pitch
er Clark.
The Males tied the score in their
half, Luahiwa singing and scoring on
Mana's hit, coupled with an error.
Joys wild throw home to intercept
Luahiwa also let Mana in.
In the second, third and fourth Meth
er side scored. but in the fifth the Mai
les went for their opponents in good
style After Bush was thrown out at
first, Taylor started the ball rolling
with a three Dagger into left, scoring
on Luahiwa's single. The latter start
ed for third and came home on a wild
throw to JOY. Mana followed with an
other three-base hit into center and
scored on Pryce's tumble of Clark's
hit.
The Males scored again in the sixth,
Kiley being presented with base on
balls: and he managed to reach home
on errors by Williams at short.
Neither side scored in the seventh,
and in the eighth the Honolulus braced
VI and made another futile attempt to
overcome the Males lead.
Joy started out with a two Dagger
into center, Cunha was presented with
two bases on an error by Mana at
second. and Joy scored. Pryce brought
Cunha home with long hit into left,
which gave him two bags He was
caught at second and the side was re-
tired then in short order. In their
half of the eighth the Males added
another score to the half dozen already
up against the Honolulus.
Jones got base on balls and Desha
reached first after three strikes. which
Cunha failed to hold, and then threw
wild to first. Desha ran on the wrong
side of first and was put out on the
held-in from right, where Cunha' s
throw had landed the ball. Jones scor-
ed in the excitement. however. and the
score stood seven to four. Williams
for the Houolulus reached third in the
ninth but failed to score.
The following IS the official score:
