the score of to 0, in e fairly interest
ing contest. The contest vas close up
to the seventh, both teums giving 4
fast exhibition of the game, but in that
inning Winthrop went To the bad for n
while with the result that Gardiner
added three more runs TO the two she
had secured in the previous inning, and
incidentally gave the score 4 one-sided
appearance from the road.
But like many onc-sided scores and
roadside views, and other things In this
world. it was decciving. A game that
| is nothing To nothing until the sixth
inning Is a good on, and that was the
| fact of the case. yesterday. Outside
Of the sixth and seventh, Gardiner did
no scoring. and as already seen. VIM
throD did not score at all. In short, it
was 4 good, Grst-class exhibition of
baseball.
Both Morse and Kan, pitched fine
ball. though in justice to Kane 1t should
he said that no excelled. for he had the
opposing batsmen in his power all the
time, and also had perfect control. He
pitched one Of the best games he has
presided over this year, and is appar-
emily getting into the form Of the early
part of The season.
"Gramp' WAS all right and had his
usual assortment of benders, which.
with little better support at critical
times. would have helped him out Won
derfully. They punched the errors,
however, in the seventh. after the
fashion Of Augusta, the other day, and
| mGde them cost like fury, and il made
things bad.
There We're number Of new men not
seen at Winthrop before. One was 4
little man named Conroy, who amused
himself out on first bass when Gardiner
was IN the field. It's said he came from
Lawrence. but he acted IS if he knew
what he was there Cor. for he mani
tested his presence with Two good hits
during the game. circuit was another
new face on Gardiner, h. playing at
short.
Winthrop had q now man at short,
also. whose name is Chandler.
Both catchers did good work. Stone
got two hits with u total of three an
caught a. fine game. While Driscsll
played hard. plucky. uphill game-a
thing, which by the way. he always
does.
There We're q number of good PLAYS
during the game. Perhaps the prettiest
was the assist by Irish of Aliens hit
to right for what looked safe enough
for anybody. but 4 fast Pickup and a
quick, accurate throw nailed the man.
Carligan also made u pickup and toss
during the earlier part that was pretty.
While Gardiner played a fast fielding
game throughout.
There was but ono base on balls, no
one hit and 10 stolen bases-which is
some of the indications Of good ball
playing that went on. yesterday, and
which is going on daily in the Trolley
League.
