But Keno writes:
The morning game began at 10 q clock and
for s innings it looked like the home team
couldn't help winning as the score stood to
0 III its favor.
But a change came and the visitors. by
good hard hitting, excellent base running,
and a mistake or two of the locals, made
three runs, and in their half Of the ninth
piled up four more. Things looked decided
ly bad for the locals, as the score now stood
: to against them.
The latter came in for the last half of the
ninth with "blood in their eyes. George
Gunnett. first man up, made hit; John
Spates next, and the pitcher hit HIM with
the ball. Frank Spates went out on a fly to
first Mooney Gunnett flied out to left.
Two men out and no runs. This is bad.
Likely" Taylor is next and he lands for two
bases scoring Gunnett and Spates. Will
liams followed with a hit Jackson is next
and gets his third hit in the game scoring
Taylor and Williams and winning the game
by : to7 Hurrah'
1t was good game, an excellent finish,
and everyone went to dinner in capital
humor.
Frank Spates pitched and though no one
ever knew him to do any pitching before,
he was great"
Williams gave him fine support behind
the bat and all the boys, both in-tield and
out-field played good ball.
The afternoon game was what the roOters
call hot tamala." The crowd filled every
available space inside the Park, while the
hillside, trees, fences, and roofs were lined
with spectators. Every fellow who was at
the morning game came back and brought
two or three friends. The grand stand was
damned with beauty and manliness-from
town and other towns.
William Spates was on the slab for the
locals and Eyerman filled the same office for
the visitors
In the third the locals made a balloon as
cension and Staid in the clouds long enough
for the visitors to make 6 runs. After that
it was nip and tuck" to the finish, the
home team winning out in the ninth by
s to :.
Joe Bone umpircd the afternoon game in
an excellent manner pleasing players and
patrons alike by his fair and impartial
rulings.
The "Herron Hill'' aggregation is pleas
ant, gentlemanly company, who know the
game and play it skilfully in every depart
ment
We hope the management will be able to
arrange with manager Williams for return
game later in the season.
