Robert Carter both saved the game and
won II at Vinton Street park Saturday
afternoon, when the Rourke family won a
ten-lnning contest from the Sioux before a
splendid crowd, considering the high wind
and binding dust.
Carter saved the game in the fifth inning,
when, with two men on bases and two
out, he climbed on the right-neld fence and
grabbed the long ny from the bat OF Weed,
the elongated second baseman of the Sioux
tribe He won the game in the tenth in
ming, when. with Gonding on third he hit
the ball so fast by Mr.. Newton that that
fielder was unable to get his claws on IT,
although he had been taking everything
that came his way and some that looked to
be out Of his reach. Newton made two
phenomenal stops after hard runs and won
the applause of the crowd the Omaha
crowd always bestowing It's applause on the
visiting player as well as on the home boy
II the play warrants IT.
For nine innings they battled and neither
side had the advantage, although It did
look in the seventh inning as II Lawler
might score after having made a triple to
right with only one out. Fate, however,
had decreed that Omaha should not win
in that inning, for McCloskey attempted TO
bunt tho ball popped into the air and a
double, catching Lawler on third, was the
result.
weIch Fans Twice.
In the sixth inning and in the ninth
Dolan was the first man UP each time.
and the same thing happened in each in
ming WEIGH received his instructions from
the bench to bunt, no one being out, and
he struck out each time. This is the game
that won the pennant for Omaha last year,
and usually wins but It fell down on both
attempts Saturday
In the ninth. after Dolan had singled and
welch and struck out; Slugger Bill came
along with a single, which sent the captain
to third, with but one out. The hopes of
the fans arose, but hope was all there was
to II, for Thomas struck out, his third for
the day. and Lawler flew out to Pulsifer.
After the Sioux had been retired, one,
two, three, in the first half OF the tenth
Omaha came to bat with McCloskey to
lead on He hit to second and one was
down. Gonding drove one near third that
went so fast Sheehan could not stop It,
and again was hope on the ssoendency.
Pfeister struck out. but on the third strike
Gonding stole second and Shea threw the
ball so wild that Gonding went on to third,
and It was up to Nick, the sleuth, to do
something for his country. He was Johnny
on-the-Spot and hit for the single that
brought in the only run Of the game.
