EASTERNS WIN FAST
GAME FROM BUREAUS
First Contest of Series for Local
Championship.

The Eastern Athletic and Bureau Ath-
letic Clubs met in conflict on the LOTUS
baseball patch, at American League
Park yesterday afternoon, in the first
game of a series for the championship of
the District. The Easterns put up an
article of ball that would have done
credit to a few of the American League
clubs, and won out by the score of 4 TO
8 after the hardest kind of contest.
Waller pitched a mastery game, al
lowing the Easterns but five hits, two of
which were made by Kennedy. An err
ror of omission gave the Eastern all Of
their three runs. In the eighth inning,
with the bases full, CoIIifiower moved in
toward second base to playa for Crook s
hit The Bureauite swatted the ball to
center, where Collifiower should have
been standing, and 1t bounded TO the
fence, three players crossing the rubber.
Fulcher, for the Bureaus. also twirled
good game, and let his opponents down
with six bingles. The game was pitch
ers' battle throughout, with Waller hay
ing the better of it.
The fielding honors were carried OFF by
Much and Kennedy. Of the Bureaus, and
Hughes of the Easterns.
The score by innings: RHE
Easterns $500 l x-4
Bureaus $500. 0 0 0 0-3 4
Batteries-Wahler and Gates; Fulcher

MARINES WALK AWAY
WITH THE ASYLUM BOYS
Defeat the St. Elizabeth Hospital Team
by the Score of ~ to 2.

The Marines journeyed over to the st.
Elizabeth Asylum grounds for their sec
ond game with the Hospital boys yes
terday afternoon and succeeded in
knocking the covers off several balls,
losing several more. and winning the
game by a score of % to 2. Babylon
did the pitching for the Marines. and
allowed but six hits, and gave no free
passes to first. Smith looked after the
in the eighth inning, when an error by
Padron gave the Asylum boys one of
their runs. the fielding of the sea
faring lads was fast and snappy.
Reamer started to do the twirling for
the Hospital, but lasted but four in
nings, and was succeeded by Ball, who
Jared but little better. Neither pitcher
received any kind of support. The
feature OF the game was the batting OF
Reamer of the Marines, he having one
home run. two two-baggers and two
singles to his credit and scored five runs
out of five times at the bat. The
Marines are improving wonderfully in
their stick work.

question which local baseball fans
are now wrestling with is What has
Delehanty done for the Washington
team? Has his batting prowess been
made manifest? Has he won us many
games, and last, but not least, is he
worth $4,000 year to a losing ball
team.
This question can easily and briefly be
answered, No; emphaticalIy noi'
Delehanty has proved a source of great
disappointment to his most ardent ad-
mtrers this season. Time and again he
has gone to the bat when a hit meant
one OF more runs, and in several in
stances a victory, and the best he could
do was either a pop fly or a strike-out.
Washington's pitching corps is the most
VIGOROUSLY weak in the two leagues
There are but few clubs which would not
willingly exchange a good pitcher for
Delehanty. Undoubtedly he is a big
drawing card on the road, but even his
reputation as a slugger will pail on the
public If he remains on a team which
loses game after game and plays like a
lot OF school boys. BY all means, trade
him and get pitchers. We need them,
and very badly at that.
Why We Are In Last Place.
Following are a few cold, hard facts
which clearly show why Washington is
anchored in last place.
In the games played on this trip the
Senators opponents have sent 81 runs
across the plate to the Senator's 3S. The
tailenders have made but 95 hits, while
the opposing teams have pounded Loft
tus' misf1t twirlers for 1872 safeties.
The Washington team has proved itself
superior to any in the American League
at error making In the eleven games
played they piled up error upon error,
until they have SO chalked up against
them. Their opponents made only Is.
This gives the Statesmen an average of
three errors per game.
Tie Statesmen have succeeded in win
ming but two games-one from the In
vaders and one from St Louis.
Record of Teams Work.
The following table shows the records
of The Senator's and. their opponents for
the trip:
The Washington times., 1903-05-14

The American League teams seem to
have a fancy for the number g. that
having been the winning score in no less
than seventeen games. Cleveland in par
ticular has shown a partially for 20"
In four OF the games they won they
scored six runs, while in one game they
lost they made the same number. They
also lost to Chicago, 6-3, 10 st. Louis,
81, and won from Detroit, 7-6.
Seventeen games have been played
where the losing teams made only one
run.
In the National Lea que We find there
are sixty-slx times thus early In which
teams have hit for double figures. AS
opposed 10 this there are only eighty
nine times in which the hits have not
reached double figures. Therefore the
proportion of double figure hitting is
large. In the American League there
have been ffty-two occasions on which
the hitting has gone into double figures
and only sixty-seven times when it has
gone below double figures. This also is d
good proportion of double figure batting
a better proportion than Is to be found
in the National League, showing that
the American League has done the hard
est hitting.
Curiously enough the number eleven is
most conspicuous in the double figure
batting of both leagues. Eleven hits by
one team-not in the whole game, but by
one team in the game-have been mad q
seventeen times in the National League
and fifteen times in the American In
the National League the greatest number
