New Orleans, May Especial 1.-Two
thousand fans saw New Orleans take the
second game from Birmingham. The
Barons started off in the lead, scoring
two runs in the first, while the Pelicans
We're unable to tally until the sixth, but
In this inning they found Raglan for two
singles and double which tied the score.
A base on balls and two singles in the
tenth brought in the winning run.
1t was a great game Astounding in bril-
liant plays and was hard fought from
start to finish.
No less than seven bases were stolen
during the game, Williams having two to
his credit, and sacrifice hits were plenti-
full Stanley led off in the batting, hav-
ing three safties to his credit. Williams
got a single and a two-bagger and Rome
double.
The Barons got only six hits off Phillips
while Ragan was found for eleven.
Carpenter Hit BY Ball.
In the third inning when Stanley was
at the bat Carpenter was struck by
pitched ball that got away from Clarke,
the ball hit the umpire on the knee and
bounding off struck him behind the ear.
He fell to the ground in faint but was
quickly revived. He pluclily finished the
inning, but after it was over he was
forced to retire Wilson Of the Pellcans
and Matthews of the Barons offciated
during the remainder of the game.
The two runs by Birmingham were
scored in the following manner; With
one man out Phillips gave Hennessy
base on balls, Miller then singled to left,
Hennessy going to second, Delehanty
placed a safety in center field and Hen
messy scored. Smith hit one down to
the pitcher ana was out at first Beck
threw to Robe and Miller scored on Robes
bad throw to the plate. Two hits, two
runs.
Touchod Ragan Up.
In the sixth Raglan was touched up for
double and two singles that enabled
the Pelicans to tie the score. Hahn
started off with a single to center and
went to second when Ragan turned
wild one loose. Rohes two-bagger to
left scored Hahn. Beck sacrificed out
from the pitcher to first and Robe went
to third. Williams hunted one down to
the pitcher who MADE a wild throw home
to catch Robe, who scored, and in the
meantime William got to second but
when he tried to annex the third sack
Raglan got him by a quick throw to third.
Holly hit to center and stole second then
Stratton ended the inning by striking
out.
With two men on bases in the tenth
and nobody out the Barons failed to score,
the next three going in rapid succession.
Nadeau's catch of Delehanty's long drive
to left ended the hopes the Alabamlans
had.
For New Orleans Stanley singled to
left and went to second on Nadeau's sacri-
flee to first. Hahn walked and Robe
went out from second to first. Becks
single to left scored Stanley and won
the game.
