Waterbury evening Democrat., 1903-09-14

bases when Lallier, 1T, came to the bat ! and banged out pretty home run' which made the score 6 to in their l favor. The Brooklyn crowd was 1 doing all kinds of stunts and maue enough noise to rattle any pitcher, but Barker settled down and the Brooklyns failed to do anything more till the last of the ninth, when they tied the score
 From the fifth to the ninth neither side scored a run and it began to look as though the Brooklyns were going to carry off another victory. In the hrst of the ninth the Hills came to the bat determined to do or die, and they cer- | tainly did do. Slavin was the first man up and the Hills supporters called upon Mike for home run-any- thing to tie the score. Slavin hadn't been hitting very we'll during the early part Of the game, but he more than made good in his last try at the bat. Kelly let fly ball and Slavin made swing that looked wicked. The next one he met fair and square and off goes the sphere for deep left field. When Slavin stopped running he had reached third. This was the Hills chance and they started right in to win. The supporters from the HiIl, who had been rather quiet up to this since loomed up and finally made the place ring with their shouts. Cake I walks and other knid of stunts were i'll order and the Hill followers executed them all in their endeavors to rattle Kelly. And they succeeded pretty well. Frank Bergin was the next bat ter and he drew four bad ones from John and soon was on second. Red Barker was up next and added to the HilPs joy by banging out a. corking hit that scored Slavin and Bergin. This put the Hills to the front once more by one run. ''Dicky' Sheehan followed Barker and got fan Law
 Tor followed and was retired on a pop I up fly. Johnson was next and drove both men home by pretty hit putting the score to in their favor Scully, 1 who was up next, famed and the man 1 following him did the same. Then the l Brooklyn's fun came. The Brooklyn i crowd began to get in their good work too by this time and had Red Bark l CT up in the air for the first two men received passes. The next man got I his base on tumble and then the I great Jerry Shugrue stepped to the plate. Jerry looked good for a hit and tried hard to break the ball but only
 
 short that Dicky Sheehan failed to catch. Jerry, however, was out be
 cause the bases were filled and under those circumstances the batter who l knocks an infield hit is declared out.
 Dan Cronan was the next up and the T Brooklyns asked him to hit it to the track. Dan tried hard but only sawed l the wind three times. Lailier followed l Dan and sent hot liner over third base and scored two men. The scene by this time was beyond description. The Hills were beginning to get very anxious and the Brooklyns very hope full. Hats were thrown in the air and the crowd insisted on surging on 'l the diamond. Ehe game stopped for a while till order was partly restored and the game started again. Joe
 Bagley was up. There were two runs and one man on second. Joe knocked a swift liner to Sheehan. It looked ! easy enough for Dicky to handle but boy was too excited and failed to l squeeze it. The ball bounded from 1 Dicks glove towards second base and Joe Phelan made a grab for it. He T ought to have caught the ball and could have if he hadn't fallen all over himself for about a period of a minute just time enough for Lallier to round
 third and slide for home with the I score that tied the game. Sheehan's
 error was bad but Phelan's was still worse to allow a man to score from second on a ball that landed right at his feet But Sheehan had no uni
 form and was playing in heavy street shoes. This may have been responsi- ble for his slowness Everything counts in a game-sOmetimes a uni form. The next man was retired. The game was stopped at this period as it was long after four and the other
 game had to be commenced. The final score was Brooklyn 9, Washington
 Hill 9. Fox umpired.
 St Joseph-Pastime Game. And the Pastimes won! Sounds r strange but they did the trick nice and , handy yesterday to the St Joseph's by
 a score of IS to H., The Pastimes hit f the ball good and hard and made
 all kinds of hits including home runs. Wilson of Oakville was in the box for the Saints and failed to make any kind < of a showing for the Pastimes and
 kept the Saints hits well scattered.
 The T. A. B's lit on him rather hard - in the first part of the game but he
 settled down as the game advanced
 and pitched good steady ball. The
 Saints made three runs in the first in~ ming and the Pastimess not to be out
 done did the same. Up to the middle part of the game the Saints led the
 Pastimes, but after that period they , failed to get over one more run. The Pastimes kept logging at elson'Ns de i livery and by the end of the game led the Saints by five runs. Nelson was
 hit hard but he didn't get very good , support The Saints were way off from old man Hodge to Kane and Madden, the two latter players missed
 few nice flies and made a couple of 7 bad throws Twas just the same on ; the infield with the exception of ''Bill'' Cleary, why by the way, always plays P a good game. Joe Dews was very rank, fumbhng everything that came his way. Cayanaugh made few
