The Saint Paul globe. (St. Paul, Minn.) 1896-1905, 1904-05-10

The Indians riveted another shutout on
the Saints 'scutcheOn yesterday, running
away from the home team at every angle
of the game, which same, recalling yester-
days effort, is no eXtravagant f1attery for
the gentlemen from Indiana. Score to O.
While the cooler heads among the fans
might not class the exhibition as utterly
decayed, even the ultra conservative were
forced to admit that it had a decided
gamey flavor, little too strong even for
the most robust baseball digestion. Seven
errors stand out glaringly in a vacant lot
game, but when the mystic number is per-
petrated by salaried players, it becomes
almost too pathetic to think about, with
out Ioosening up the tear glands.
The adOlescent Fisher, whose personal
appearance would indicate that the Gerry
society might still have some claim over
MS actions did not permit any of the
Saints to disturb him at any time. He al
lowed seven hits, but gave them up gin
gerly except in the eighth when three
were accumulated.
The youthful twirler didn't get aero
nautic in the least. but tended to business
allowing his assistants to retire the side
without anything definite being done. The
only little ray of sunshine for the fans
came down and stayed a while in this in
nlngs, but HogTiever, out in right field
showed the dark cloud back in position
again by cutting Wheeler off, while a run
was almost within reach.
Ihe preamble of the disaster belongs to
Sessions, who lasted two innings on the
slab. during which time the Indians man

This was more than the merciful man
ager could stand and he broke in upon
BaTtos' holiday and set him to work The
southpaw wasn't a startling improvement
by any means, but in extenuation it can
be saId that he had to contend with lot
OF criminal negligence on the part Of his
team mates, which didn't tend to make
his work on the slab any better
Three times was O'Brien at short tried
and found wanting, and in two instances
the HoosieTs added to the score total
thereby Wheeler at third contributed two
errors, one of which resulted in a run.
In the batting lists Carr stood out bright
and respondent. Every time the third
baSeman came up to the plate he hit the
ball and each time he hit the ball to an
uninhabited section of the field. Five safe
ones with Sickening regularity was all he
was able to accomplish. by reason of the
limited number of innings in a game.
HOgriever was the first to start out
against Sessions. and Hoggie put a high
one into LAWYERS hands. Magoon then
came forth and took unto himself a hit.

fell heavily on the ball, sending Carr
and Dickey home. Hogriever put one
down between second and first which
Kelley threw to second, retiring Demontre-
vile, but allowing Fisher to complete his
trip without mishap.
The Indians worked off polished
double on the Saints in the second.
Wheeler hit one to the right field fence,
which landed so hard that it bounded
back and cut a double down to one
Sacker. Kelley sent a hot one down
Demontreviile' way, which the shortStop
whipped to second and had ii relayed to
first in time to retire Kelley.
There was nothing for the Indians in
the third, due in part to whirlWind stop
by Marcan. Heydon sent a vicious one
along the ground, which the little sec

The fourth inning was a pretty sad af-
