Kansas City at St. Paul.
Mr.. McCord, the diminutive twirler of the
Louisville team. played a merry tune with
his curves yesterday at Washington Park
His strain was of such high character that
the Indianapolis players succumbed to it
TO the score of to 3. McCord was not en-
tirely alone in his effort to down the
Hoosiers. Mr.. Kihm also contributed to his
teammates downfall Kihm seemed over
come in one of McCord's spells and stood
motionless while the Louisville players ca
vorted about the bases. The same is to
be said OF Jones, who keeps watch over
the Indianapolis left garden. In the fourth
inning Sullivan singled to left. and Jones,
after getting the ball, held it while Sulli-
van scampereG to second
Although the Indianapolis players APP
peared under spell, the Louisville play
ers at times were loath to take the game
from the Hoosiers. Businessman Hart had
an angry tilt with himself and liz trying
to wreak vengeance for his own misplay,
threw the ball savagely at Pitcher Nc
Cord. The latter, of small stature, had no
occasion to duck as the ball went flying to
the leftfield bleachers. The cause of Harris
anger was in his dropping the ball when
McCord threw to first to catch kim sleep
ing. Hart dropped the ball and kim went
to second. Then Hart tried his good right
arm to tire extent of allowing Kihm to
reach third. For this display of baby work
he was jeered by his fellow players
Manager Watkins after trying out sew
eral pitchers. decided to send McPartlin to
the box. The latter had plenty of speed for
the opering inning and gave premise of
winning his game. His work became so
ragged that Manager Watkins replaced
McPartlin in the eighth and ninth innings
by Allemang, the new acquisition to the
pitching corps from Toledo
HOLSTERS GOT AWAY IN THE LEAD.
The manner in which the Hoosiers started
the first inning gave the spectators high
hopes Hogriever reached first on Harris
error. He went to third on Foxs single to
right and scored on a fly to left by Jones.
Heydon sacrificed and Kihm retired the
side by popping up fly to Quinlan. o.
we'll singled for Louisville in the first in
nlng after two men were out but was al
lowed to die by Sullvan's high fly to Jones.
Tamsett started the second with a single,
but was caught stealing. Marcan hit to
Brashear, who fumbled, allowing Marcan
Il
was TO hit into a double play.
Louisville got it's first run in the fourth
inning. Sullivan drove hard liner to left
field and went to second, while Jones held
the ball. Clymer followed with a base on
balls. Sullivan scored on hit to left by
Schriever, Quinlan sacrificed and McCord
ended the inning by striking out. In the
last half CT this inning Indianapolis went
Louisville two better Coulter waited for
four wide ones. He was advanced on
Jones's sacrifice and scored on Kihm's
single to center. In this inning McCord
tried TO catch kim doing and threw to
Hart. The latter dropped the throw, Kihm
going to second Hart then allowed Kihm
to reach third on a wild throw. kim
scored on Tamsett's drive to center. An
other double play, in which Marcan and
McPartlin figured, ended further run
getting for that inning.
Louisville in the next inning tied the
score. Hart went out from Marcan to
kim. but Brashear followed with a single
to right. He went to third moment later,
when Odwell sent hot one to center Sui
hvan then singled, scoring Brashear, Odwell
allowed to reach first safely on Tamsett's
error. Sullivan was thrown out at third by
McPartlin on assist from Heydon when
Clymer stole second. Sullivan tried to run
nome on the play but was caught
KIHMS STUPIDITY.
Schrievers fly to Kihm put an end to the
damage In the HOLSTERS half of the sixth
inning they could do nothing with McCord,
who seemed to have got his weather eye
on the Indianapolis batters. In the last of
the sixth kerwin drove a hot one through
Fox. Hart advanced him to third on a
drive to center. Brashear drew a free pass,
filling the bases. Odwell foued on: to
kim. At this juncture the Indianapolis
first baseman had two opportunities to
catch one of the Louisville base runners,
but his apparent stupidity allowed the men
to do a dance on the base lines. When
Odwell hit the ball, Hart, who was on Sec
ond, started to third. Kerwin was running
for nome when the ball was caught. Kihm
stood on the line holding the ball, allowing
both men TO quietly return to their respec-
tive bases. Sullivan then lifted a fly to
center, Kerwin scoring. Quinlan retired the
side from McPartin TO Kihm.
Coulter began the eighth by drawing his
fourth base on balls. Jones took the life
out of the inning by hitting to Brashear,
who doubled Coulter at second and also re-
tired Jones at first. Kihm was passed. but
Tamsett popped an easy one to Hart.
Hart received pass in the eighth and
galloped home when Brashear sent hot
one down the third base line for two bases.
Louisville scored another run In the ninth
on hit by Quinlan and three-b Dagger to
right by kerwin. Score:
