Tho game at Front and Union streets
Yesterday afternoon was rather slow and
one sided and had il not been for the
great way i'm which "Chick" Iierney
tossed the ball over the whitewashed
slab. the spectators might have dozed in
their seats.
Tierney has not pitched for more than
a year and when he went into the box
Yesterday the fans asked one another
lhow they thought he would make out.
l"Chick" soon answered the question him
self. for the way he heaved the ball over
the plate was worth seeing. He used his
head and knew just where to put the
ball. He had perfect control over his
curves and speed and was like a flash OF
lightning in throwing the sphere to tho
bases. In fact he was so quick that Ton
News did not know he had the ball II
one play.
Twice Tierney had three men on thO
bags and he pitched himself out of IN
hole without allowing the visitors e
score.
The Wilmington men played a bette
game than they did on Wednesday, bu
still few errors We're made. They were
hard plays. however. and the men c0ul'
not be blamed for them.
d Manaymk played a poor game all tn
way through and at no time during tn
game did they seem able to organize
The inhelders fumhled and juggled tn
ball and the Outfielders dropped it whel
they had it right in their hands. AT tn
bat they were easy and only hit the bal
when Tierney eased up ON them. Wi
nngton was anxious TO get back a
Manayunk, and they did il. The fina
score was - TO 3.
CUBAN y GIANTS TODAY
Today the Cuban y iants will pla
Wilmington and fast and interestin
game is expected. The Giants are fas
S team and they are known all over tn
