Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1904-08-30

Jones looks the ball player all over. while
Glade belongs to the croauet class.
Umpire King worked by his lonesome
yesterday and did very well. Tommy Con-
molly was ordered to Philadelphia to take
care of the Quakers and White Sox.
There Is something Of a feud between
Managers Donovan and McAleer. When last
in the mound city McAleer handed out
the Senators trimmed the Browns nicely.
Yesterday Jacobsen was pitching good ball,
but Donovan wanted the game SO badly
that he pulled out the left handler and sub
stituted Hughes, which practically cinch-
ed the game.
OF the two double plays made yesterday
both were of the same sort, fiys to the In
fielders and runners caught before they
could return to the base.
When Glade made his hit In the fifth
inning the ball bounded over second. Nc
Cormick was set for the ball, but Cassidy
came over with a flying leap and then had
to fall down on a short throw. Joe has been
going all over the infield on account OF
McCormicks bad leg. but Mac was some
what surprised when he saw the youngster
shoot through the air and grab the ball.
Patten and Townsend will probably ham
die the double header today and IL their
support continues as 1t was yesterday, there
will be a double victory for the locals to
chalk up tonight. The Senators may be In
but none of the clubs can come here with
the understanding that they have a
''cinch."
Catcher Bill Clarke has returned to the
club after a three-days wrestle with
bad case Of malaria.
In the fourth inning Heidrick whipped a
fast daisy cutter" directly at Herring back
of first, but the Sunday school boy held his
ground and completed nice play;
In trying to dodge one Of Hughes fast In
shoots in the eighth inning. Wallace was
struck on the left hand and for a time 1t
was thought he would have to go out of
out and Bobby played through to the end.
The after effects Of the blow may keep HIM
on the bench today.
Run your eye over the makeup Of the
League, outside of Washington. and you
will see that there Is not one but has an
ex-senator on Its pay roll.
Athletics, Boston, Detroit and Cleveland
played without errors yesterday. The other
four clubs made but six errors between
them.
Pitcher Coakley joined the Athletics yes
terday. Manager Mack is anticipating the
bunch of double-headers he has to play on
the last western trip.
Washington was the only American
League team that batted In double figures
yesterday. That's good an argument as
can be advanced against the asinine foul
strike rule
There is never anything so amusing to
a crowd as to have a sharp foul hit the
umpire. People will sympathize with a
player when he is hurt but there is never
any sympathy extended an umpire.
c. H. Ebbetts, PRESIDENT of the Brooklyn
National League base ball team, spent Sun
day in York and was In conference with
Red" Owens, the Penn Park shortstop,
whose release was recently purchased from
the Springfield Mass team. He also Of
ferred Bagley special inducements to join
his team
New York is now no points ahead of Chi
cago in the race for the National League
a thtrty-nine
between the first and fifth clubs In the
American League race. Seven points be-
tween Boston and New York. twenty-one
between New York and the Athletics, ten
between the Athletics and Chicago. and
only one point between the Chicagos and
the Clevelanders. There Is race as is a
race.
A bad accident occurred on the opening
play Bay hunted and Conroy's throw, be-
ing high and wide, pulled CAMEL directly
into Bays path. Bays head struck big
John amidships and Bay toppled over In
heap He rolled over on his back and lay
tanning and water brought him to. CAMEL,
too, was hurt and needed attention before
he could resume. Later In the game Pow
ellis hand was hurt in stopping hot drive.
New York Sun

timore, Mason pitched the fewest balls that

Ter pitched In eight innings 1876 balls. OF
the SO balls pitched by Mason 26 were balls

of balls pitched to any one player was 10,
to Mason.-BaltimOre American.
silk" O'Loughlin umpired his first game
in New York in over year, and whatever
may have been the merits of the ruction in
Cleveland between silk and the New
Yorks, silks" work yesterday was indeed
silky. silks" mannerisms amused, but his
umpiring was thorough. impartial. smooth
and without single mistake. He made one
close decision at the plate against New
York but the decision was correct. silks
arms move like those of a mechanical doll
and the way he chops off his words sug-
eests the drop of the guillotine. but he
handled the game In excellent style. just the
same-New York Sun.
