The Birmingham baseball team left for Nashville last night determined to come back home on Thursday with a good hold on fifth place and with percentage as good as BOO At the train last night the players expressed confidence in being able 10 take a majority of games from Nashville.
 The only player not to board the train was Pitcher Oscar Streit who 1t is said, Is very sore at the treatment accorded him from the grandstand in Saturdays game and on account of not being given good support by his team mates. Oscar is said to be especially hurt over the roasts he got from the grandstand when he was trying his best to win. He Is very proud of being native Birmingham boy and unlxind treatment from his home people offended him deeply. After the game he notified Manager O'Brien that he was ready to quit and last night he did not accompany the team It Is true he is not due to pitch in Nashville as Birmingham only plays three games there. Alloway, Clark and Minahan are sched- uled to pitch that Is the regular order. Streit having worked Saturday
 While Stret has good grounds for feel ing hurt it ia to be sincerely hoped that he will continue with the Birmingham team While 1t Is true some persons roasted him from the grandstand they do not represent the feeling of the public of Birmingham and he should not so construe it. Oscar Is one of the best pitchers in the league and the people of Birmingham know 1t,
 The game at Nashville will be reported in teegraphic detail as usual at the bowling hall this afternoon and local | fans are eager for more scalps from the most bitter rivals of the Barons. The | game will be called in Nashville at 4 o'clock and 1t Is probable that Allcway will pitch for Birmingham
