GAME THIS SEASON.

I<rensOn VIII Do the Slab Work for
the Y. Nj. G. A.'s-Ha rmOn LIS Being
saved for the Double Header
saturday Afternoon When He VIII
Pitch Both Games-BOth Teams
Are Confident of Victory This
Afternoon.
The game between the Y. NJ. c. A
and Guyton teams at the Bolton street
park this afternoon will be holly con-
tested, and if the indications, reckoned
from past performances, count for any,
thing it will be a splendid game, for
the visiting team has demonstrated
that it is one of the strongest in the
state. In a series of three games with
the Brunswick team, which was seen
here in two games with the Y. NJ c.
AS the Guyton aggregation took two
ont of the three, and it took ten in
nings to decide the one which they
lost.
The Brunswick team was one of the
hest seen here this summer, and if
they were defeated by the Guyton
bows it is safe to say that the yell
low Legs will have all that they are
looking for when they face Simmons,
who will be on the firing line for the
visitors this afternoon. Krenson will
do the twirling for the Y. M. c. AS,
it having been decided to save Har-
mon for the double header which the
Yellow Legs will play with the c. L.
AS Saturday afternoon. Harmon will
IL.
McGraw will do the same for the Lii
brarians.
Krenson will find a tough proposition
in the visitors, but he has pitched
through critical stages in too many
games to have a weak heart at de-
cisive moments of the battle. He has
all the qualifications of good twirler
and his indifferent showing this year
has been due more. to ill luck than
anything else. Every time he has been
put in the box it has been at a disad-
vantage to him. He is usually started
off in the game playing first base, and
when some other pitcher has lost the
game he is expected to pull it out of
the hole. Krenson can pitch good ball,
and he will have opportunity of
demonstrating that fact this after
noon.
Harms will keep gate at the first
turn, and if the visitors bring man
with them that will equal the tall yell
low Leg at first base they can say
that they have done well. Lang Will
do the sprinting around second base.
There is no surplus flesh on this little
fellow, but he's always in the game,
and can be counted on to do his part
with the stick. Savarese, who has
made considerable improvement in his
work at short in the last three or four
games, will again keep the bars up at
Krensons right. Harmon will take his
post at the third sack, where he is al
ways up to the limit in fielding his po-
sition. The Yellow Legs outfield could
be materially strengthened, not so
much in fielding but IN batting. inns
is what the team will need to-day to
win. They will have to be hit and mt
often and so far the batting OF the
outfelders has been of the ordinary or
der.
Starke will do the receiving, and all
the fans know that he is in the game
body and soul from start to nnlsh.
Many pitchers who have felt the yell
low coming UP their back when defeat
seemed inevitable, have braced up and
won out through the influence of
Starke's encouraging words and exam
pie of earnest effort.
The incidental qualifications of the
members of the Guyton team are not
known, but the result of their work so
far this season has demonstrated the
fact that they have gotten together
strong set of tossers.
The game will be called at 4:30, and
the two teams will line up as follows
Y. NJ. c. A. Guyton.
