The Saint Paul globe. (St. Paul, Minn.) 1896-1905, 1904-05-15


A brace of costly errors and general de-
bihty at the bat were partially responsible
for a second victory for the Mud Hens
yesterday Corbett was mostly the re-
mainder of the contributory causes that
went to make up a Well-rounded and
complete defeat. Score: Toledo 8, st.
Paul 4.
The occasion was a most pleasing one
for DR.. Reisling, whose catapultic arm
hid the work for Toledo yesterday and
"Wednesday. A bare half dozen hits were
all the Saints were able to get in touch
with, and of these two were home runs
and one a double sacker, the extra bases
accounting for three of the four runs KEEL
leys men were able to take.
1t was quite the reverse with Corbett,
who had all kinds of motive power be-
hind him and generous amount Of
strike out ability. During his incumbency,
which was of five innings duration, nine
hits were acquired by the Mud Hens
which, aided by timely errors, netted sew
en- runs He struck out five men and al
lowed four to walk. and every time any
Mud Hen hit the ball it landed in safe
territory.
Slagle was substituted in the sixth and
the three innings he labored turned out
five hits for the Toledo squad, which add
ed two more runs to the total. The game
had passed beyond redemption when Sla-
gle was called up, as the Saints were as
much at the mercy of the dental twirler
as If they had taken gas. What hitting
there was came at long intervals and be-
tween Brown and Reisling base stealing
degenerated into an Improbable venture,
hazardous in the extreme.
There were two bright spots in the con-
test that stood out like two bits on the
sidewalk. Rabbit Lawler repeated his
performance of Thursday afternoon the
first time up. The fans had keen rec
objection of the suspense he cut short
for them in the last half of the tenth, and
his appearance was the signal for much
clapping of the hands.
Two Strikes Called.
Two strikes were called upon him be-
fore he apparently awoke to the situa-
tion, but when he did awake it was with
a resounding swat on one of the doctor S
choicest that lifted it clear to the right
field fence
In the fifth, with Marcan on second
Corbett came forward for the second
time, his first being a gentlemanIy little
single, and walloped the ball for four
bases.
Among the lasting impressions of yes
terday's game is Umpire Pears. who is
one OF Grillo's secret service men. Mr.
Hears appeared unannounced and the fans
wondered If Bauswine had got wet and
shrunk lot since the last game The
new jumps is lacking in Bauswine's com
mandlng presence to a large extent and to
shghter degree in his judgment of
plays.
Mr.. Pears. contributed in no way to the
downfall of st. Paul or the achievement of
iIoledo, his judicial shortcomings having
been spread with the strictest fmpartiaIitv
on both sides, but he frequently stirred
the elemental passions of the fans by his
conception of what constituted bali and
what strike
sullivan retired from the game at tha
end of the fifth inning as the result of q
4ouI tip which caught him on the ear. If
was nasty rap that was heard all over
the grand stand, and as the plucky catcher
staggered away no one expected to see
him return to the game A little cold
water was applied and SulIy came strong
ana lively. He was working on his nerve
however, and at the close of the inpin9
was getting little groggy. While in the
pay he held the base runners close to
nome, and eVerlaStingly marred ono ar
tempt at double steal.
