won their thirteenth game on the 18th OF
the month and their hits were exactly IL.

their Il hits totalng u bases
Petty started the twirling for the Browns
but he lasted only three innings. Then
Harry Howell took up the running but his
stay was still shorter, but two rounds be-
ing enough for him. Southpaw Sievers
then walked into the center of the diamond
and his reception was warm one, but he
got going after one inning, and held the
Senators safe thereafter.
Case Patten did the twirling for the Sen
ators. and 1t required five innings for him
to get properly warmed up. In the mean
time the Browns were playing merry tune
with their bats. but exceptional fielding
kept down the scoring. nine of their eleven
hits being made In the first four innings.
After that Patten had the opposing bats
men guessing. and they were lucky to get
the ball out of the diamond.
The features of the game were the field
ing of Washingtons infield. Cassidy, Nc
COrmick and Coughlin making many fast
plays, while Jake Stahl took care of every
thing that went toward first. The Browns
fielding was married by the poor work of
Hill, at third. both his errors being costly.
In the batting line Jake Stahl was the
bright particular star, as his two triples
were beautiful drives and run scorers In
each case. Close up to him were little Cas-
sidy and kittredge. the former getting three
singles. while the latter had double and
two singles. Coughlin had fine triple and
single. while McCormcks double also be-
longed in the fancy class. Hemphill. Held
rick and Wallace were the leaders for the
Browns with the stick the little shortstop
being the only one to get drive for more
than one base.
A base on balls to Burkett and single by
Heidrck scored the Browns first run in the
initial inning. This tally was gotten back
by the Senators in the same inning on'
Coughlin's single and Stahl's triple. Jake
misunderstood instructions while turning
third and continued on home to be an easy
out al the plate.
In the second the Browns added another
run to their credit. singles by Padden, Sug-
den and Petty bringing about this result,
fast double play by Cassidy. Mccormick
and Stahl shutting off further proceedings.
In the third Patten was given quite a
drubbing. two singles a double and sac
r1fice adding two runs to st. Louis score,
their last taiiylng of the game.
In this inning the Senators got two of
these runs back, Patten leading off with
single and being chased home by Cough
Inns triple to left. Donovan went out
third to first. and Coughln scored on the
play. Hill being caught off his balance
which compelled him to play for the bat
ter.
In the fourth the locals tied up the score
on base on balls to Mccormick and Kit
tredgeS nice line double into left.
The Senators shot to the front in the
fifth and there was nothing more to It, as
their opponents faded completely away.
Donovan got a base on balls. and in trying
10 sacrifice Cassidy beat out Howelrs
throw TO first. Stahl neatly sacrificed
moved Donovan and Cassidy along a base.
O'Neill went out long fly to Heidrick
and Donovan scored.
Mccormick soaked the ball over Hell
bricks head for a double. and Cassidy
scored. Drill hit toward third and was
safe on HIS error. kittredge singled into
right. sending Mccormick over the plate.
Two more tallies were added to the Sem
9tors score In the sixth. and then they
knocked OFF for the day in the run-scoring
line After Patten had gone out on a fly to
Jones. Coughln hit toward left. Hill gath
cred up the ball and threw ii into the
bleachers. Scranton BIZ continuing
around to the home plate. Donovan sin
gled. but was set back In trying to steal
second on d good throw from Sugden to
Wallace. Cassidy laid down another bunt
toward third and beat 1t out, and he easily
romped home when Stahl tore off his sec
teams for the remainder of the game. Pat
ten striking out Burkett and Hemphill In
the ninth inning. Score:
