Base Ball.


, cord a victory for the L. 4. G., won
in most decisive manner last Satur-
day afternoon, before the largest
crowd of the season.
The N-North Philadelphia club was
the scheduled victim, and from its
past performances, great things had
been expected. 1t it billed ms the
champion travelling team of Pennsyl-
vania, which, if true, we would CON
slider it sore atiiiction to have 10 wit
ness the efforts of the remaining trav-
cling teams.
This is the combination that put it
all over the Y. NJ. G. A and Roebling
teams of Trenton, some time since,
and we are led to believe by the Tren-
ton papers and the inhabitants of that
burg" that their respective teams
know something of the National game.
If so, they must have forgotten "that
something when they staked up
against the X-North Philadelphia
club.
Lambertville opened up ON Gamble
at sight and what they did to his as
sortment was truly plentiful. The To-
Gals hammered, slammed, pounded
aud banged until the bats began to
heat, and the batters get weary,
After the captain thought Mr.. Gam
BILE had received his share of ill treat
ment, he very mercifully sent him to
pasture in the left lot and took HERNIA
ham, who up to this time, had exhib-
tied some knowledge of ball playing,
to fill the defunct pitchers position
the remainder of the agony. IT is
needless to state that the game was
uninteresting.
The features of the game was the
terrific batting of Gross, who secured
four triples and two singles, total of
fourteen bases. The score Lambert
vile, &c X-North Philadelphia. &.

Fully thousand persons witnessed
the game. OF course this includes the
"Hill" street and track cheapies,
Seip and Reynolds are not up in
fielding. They have blunders credited
to them in the error column every
game.
Two games this week. Camden on
Thursday, and Philadelphia Profess
SIGNALS on Saturday.
There should be good turnout
Thursday, as the game was arranged
so as to suit those of our people whose
business prevents their attendance at
Saturday games.
Lambertyille has the hardest hitting
team in its history. II will take an A.
No. twirler to hold them, even II
little, this year.
SO far, not team has proved II
match for the locals. Still we would
not offer n kick, as We believe the
management endeavors to get the best
there is. We would venture to state,
however, that any of the Cuban Giant
teams would prove drawing card
with good profit.
Ninson twirled ut Phillipsburg, for
the North Ends, Saturday morning,
but as the team did no hitting, the
All Cubans proved the winners. Bill
contributed homer with three on
bases.
1t is rumored thata meeting between
the Roeblings and l.. A. G. is II prob
ability of the near future. 1t should
mike great card played at eithe,
ground.
Kline is improving every game
George is-a good steady player, who
is in the game at all times.
Joe. Patterson again demonstrated
his ability to play center, and when
il came to the stick, Joe was all there
This should entitle him to some con
sideration as n regular member of the
team.
Gross is playing the initial bag bet
ter than any one, who has yet held it
down for any Lambertville team and
when it comes to hitting, he has to
be appreciated.
