The Montgomery advertiser. [volume] (Montgomery, Ala.) 1885-1982, 1904-07-01

Hoodoo avaunt! Wilson is himself
again.
For nine long innings the Montsom-
cry boy faced the tribe of Newt. For
nine long innings the several members
of said tribe. In vain endeavor tried to
proceed beyond second base. For nine
ers' bench and gnawed his neither lip.
And during these nine long innings
Pabst and his Pretzels were doing
| things and two juicy tallies We're
the sheet Of Newt presented only a
blank
Seven hundred fans saw the game
and past performances were forgotten
was a pitchers battle pure and simple
with Wilson decidedly in the lead of
young Mr.. Faucet. long, lank and red
Let no word Of disparagement be
said against said Faucet. He pitched
game that ordinarily wins but his
game didn't.
In the fifth inning. a smashing two
sacker by the Pretzel captain and a
line hit by Wordsworth scored one run
In the sixth hit by Delehanty and
two wild pitches by Faucet scored the
other.
For the first time in many a day the
Montgomery team went in with the ap-
pearance of winning. There was no
loaf1ng. little beefing and lots Of ginger
and that sort Of a game always wins.
Both pitchers yielded six hits and an
error is charged against each team.
Wilson. however. gave no free passes
while Faucet walked three Montgom-
cry men and made two wild pitches.
Up to the nth series of blanks re-
suited and after the sixth II was the
same sort of business.
Nashville started Well, Pug Bennett
sending a hot grounder out to Dele
Kennedy's sacrifice Flies by Wiseman n
and Andrews retired the side with
nothing doing.
Montgomery got a man as far as sec
ond In this inning. Busch drawing four
bad ones and going to the second stop
on passed ball but Schwartz and Del
1t was one, two, three with Nash
vile in the second.
Clark walked in Montgomery's half
but was out stealing second and JAMS
than first.
Faucet singled and stole second in
the third. but the third sack was never
runner to first in her half.
In the fourth Doc Wiseman singled
but was out trying TO steal second. The
Fishermen were unable to get another
man on base during the half.
Delehanty singled and went to sec
ond on passed ball, but his team
mates could not hit the ball hard
enough to warrant his leaving the sack
In the fifth Feldhaus's terrific drive
which Wilson got came near putting
the big pitcher out of business but he
got sore and wouldn't let the Fisher
men reach the bag that inning.
Up to this time. although the score
was even. Nashville had a shade the
better of things. but the locals took a
brace. when Ed Pabst clouted the ball
into deep left center for two bags and
with two men down the old reliable Mr.
Wordsworth scored him with a scorch-
ing single.
The Fishermen were not allowed to
get man on base in the sixth.
Delehanty got his second hit and
pranced around to third on Faucets
wild pitch. The sorrell- topped twirlpr
tried TO throw over the grand stand the
very next ball and the sorrel-topped
walked in.
Russell got a hit in the seventh hut
n fast double retired the side after DR..
Lowney had popped up.
Wilson walked in tho seventh and
went to third and Molesworth's long
fly which Feldhaus muffed, but no
scoring could be done.
Wilson struck out two men in the
eighth and the third hit easy to him.
Montgomery couldn't get man to
first in the eighth.
In the ninth Kennedy got a Texas
Lacquer but stayed on first
The score was:
