Game, but Was Lashed by MuIPs
Vinegar TOngue-First Criticism
of an Umpire's Decision in Saying
That Mace Was Grossly mt Fnur
for JacksOnvilIe's First Tally
Several Players Lost Their supper
Because Game Was Not Called.
For evermore generalship and
coaching on the part of captains or
opposing baseball teams is under the
ban in Jacksonville.
The most caustic criticism of a Wis
iting team that has yet appeared in
any of the league papers appeared in
yesterdays Times Union, and practi-
cally the whole of the story of the
baseball game between Jacksonville
and Savannah was a roast of Shorty
Mullaney
v The failure of Jacksonville to defeat
Savannah is charged against little
Dingle. In the seventh inning Savan-
nah got two runs, which tied the score.
Burt was the first man up, and he sim
gled nicely. A clean steal put him on
SGCOtlu, mulldIGy liGW Oul " III 81 nay
then hit the ball to Dingle. 1t was one
of those ground huggers, with not a
bound after it hit the dead, damp dia-
mond, and just as it got to Dingle it
took a short bound. He fumbled for
a minute and Burt was safe on third
and Ray on first. Ray went down on
the first ball thrown across. r. Ken
nedy hit one square on the nose be-
tween short and second, scoring both
men.
This is what Null will read about
himself:
THE only thing occurring to
mar the game was the persistent and
mean kicking of Mr.. Grumble Mulla-
ney, the six-foot baseball knocker of
Savannah. He kicked at everything
delayed the game to the disgust of the
spectators, the contempt of the umpire.
and to the displeasure of the eight men
who were doing their best to win. Mr.
Grumble Mullaney is a knocker of the
Al class. He is miserable and de-
serves the rebukes he receives from
spectators. He kicks at everything,
and despite the good work of his team
they all come in for a roast. WEIGH
pitched a great game yesterday, but
the vinegar tongue of Mullaney was
ever on MN.
To those who know MulPs way of
waking over TO the young pltchers ana
talking to them. this is really laugh
able. He tells them funny stories 10
Keep them from gong up IN the ar.
Nearly every pltcher VINO mas ever
worked on the savannah team, has had
Null tell them the most laughable
Jokes right in the middle OF the game,
sometimes when all'the bases were full.
The most unusual part is that the
vinegar tongue or MulIaney was ever
on Con WeIch. VINO was pltchlng
great game.
The one real kick registered by Null
laney was called Tor NOT once slh:e
the South Atlantic League has been IN
existence has the Morning News ques-
toned single decision of an umpire.
Not once has an adverse criticism been
passed on one, and none would be men
toned now had not the attack been
made on Mullaney for a resentment OF
ar injustice. To-day Umpire Mace
will acknowledge that in the instance
Mullaney complained of he was little
hasty in his decision, but 1t was too
late to change. This was a mistake,
such is made every day in every league
They have been made here in Savan-
nahs favor and against it. But this
one was glaring.
Dingle started from first to steal sec
ond. Hempleman had the ball and was
waiting for the little shortstop, with
his arms akimbo when he strove to
avoid the baseman. He was tagged
four feet from the sack, and out of the
limo tbrea feet The one privilege of
