Quakers Fail to Figure in
the General Result.
FIELDING WAS VERY RAGGED
Pennsy Wins Defeat by Errors at Inop-

on Bases-Took Kindly to Fay-Mac-
kay Effective-Score II to q.

After the fierce. heart-breaking strug-
giles Of the past two days the easy victory
yesterday over the balltossers from the
University of Pennsylvania came as rath-
er relief to the Georgetown aggrega-
tion. Since the first Yale game the boys
have been keyed up to the highest pitch
and not once during the succeeding games
were they enabled to let down in the
slightest
The Quakers, however. were the easiest
things yet. They were simply never in
the game from start to finish, and it real
ly was a shame to wai;op them so sound.
ly. In four innings Georgetown accumu-
lated total Of eleven runs and one
could almost hear the sigh OF relief when
the local balltessers relaxed their ex-
IRENE vigilance.
At the beginning Of the sixth inning
Mackay and Drill, who comprised the bar
terry for the Blue and Gray, were sent to
the bench and their places filled by the
substitution of Fay and Drake. Mackay
had given magnificent exhibition of slab
work, and as the local bunch had lead
OF ten runs it was decided to not put his
arm in jeopardy by forcing him to sling
them over the plate for the full nine in
nings.
Pennsy Rallies.
The change was very beneficial to the
Quakers' batting averages. They had been
able to locate Mackay only with the
greatest difficulty, but the kind that Fay
vanians. In the four innings that he &C.
cupied the slab the visitors touched him
up for total of eight safe ones Maekay
was only damaged to the extent OF three.
The game was well in hand, however SO
that the change did not make any material
difference, and as the Blue and Gray field
ers rallied nobly to the support of their
twirler. the Pennsylyanians were not able
to make much capital out of their slug
ging picnic. AT one time the visitors Sc
cured four hits in succession, but only
one run crossed the plate.
The fielding of the Quakers was exeera-
Bile. 1t took them just two innings 10
hand Georgetown the game done up in
little package. In the third inning. when
tho Blue and Gray already had lead of
four runs. Pennsy came to the front with
d Cl eTTOTS duueQ three more
tallies to the locals score. The last
bunch of the ones that count were Sc
cured without the aid OF hit
Reynolds Very Kind.
Reynolds. who occupied the slab until
the damage had been done beyond repara-
tion. was also greatly responsible for the
large number of men that crossed the
home plate. In that fatal third. he passed
the first Georgetown man to the initial
sack. O'Hara, who was thus favored, i'm
mediately purloined the second cushion.
Golden was helped to the first corner
through the assistance OF Reynolds. who
failed to make good with grounder he
was unfortunate enough TO stop.
O'Hara and Golden were both advanced
a sack by Reynolds. who furnished free
to O'Donnell. These three
men, all of whom reached the initial sack
owing to the kindness of their opponents,
later scored on errors by the Pennsy field
ers. O'Hara made his run on poor cx-
hibition by Wolfe; Golden scored on an
error by Bennett. and O'Donnell put one
where it would do the most good OF au-
other error by Bennett, that landed Moran
on the initial sack.
Three of the four tallies accumulated
by Georgetown in the first inning were
earned runs. These were the only count
ers of this description made by the locals
The Quakers were forced to work for the
two they brought home. as in each case
the run was earned by hard wallops Gu

Became Carelesss.
Georgetown put up fairly good game.
During the first part of the game before
Pennsy had been gauged thoroughly. the
Blue and Gray aggregation went at it
tooth and nail The men from PennsyI
vania were kept guessing and were rather
inclined to believe that they were UP
against the real article.
After the score assumed its lop-sided
appearance. however. Georgetown began
to be little careless and the men were
prone to play horse with their Northern
opponents. Several times they were
caught mapping off the sacks, and all sorts
of desperate chances were taken in run
aing bases.
1t was only ewing to this latter fact
hat the contest was at all interesting.
There was some daring base running, and
he boys succeeded in padding their aver
