ANOTHER GAME TODAY

The Castle Heights team went up in the
air yesterday in just one inning, and the
Barons pushed man after man across the
plate and cinched the game beyond all
doubt. Score: Birmingham IA; Castle
Heights l.
With that one exception the college
team put up pretty good game of ball
against the Vaughanltes, but 1t was not
such a game that there was ever any
danger of their winning.
In the third inning yesterday a comedy
of errors coupled with a few hlngles from
the bats of the Barons and eleven men
scored. After that the Barons made lit
tie effort to score, and in fact played
an Indifferent game. They had had all
the batting, fielding and base running
practice that they wanted, and Manager
Harry thought 1t was no use to work the
college boys over time.
Miller Was Wild.
| Miller, who pitched for the visitors, was
wild during the first of the game, and
the bases on balls he gave, and the bats
men he hit resulted in half of the Bir-
mingham scores. The other half came
from hits and errors of the fielders.
After the third inning Miller pitched
good game of ball. and had he been able
to control his delivery In the earlier in
nings the score might not have been so
! large.
Fitzpatrick and Dessau were on tho
firing line for the Barons. and both the
boys pitched good article of ball. Four
of the hits made were off Fitzpatrick in
five innings, and the other three were off
Dessau in the remaining innings. Dessy
however, struck out six men in the four
innings he pitched
! Neither pitcher exerted himself, and af-
ter the Barons had won the game they
let up good deal in their work. In the
fourth the school boys secured three sin
giles in succession off Fitzpatrick, some
thing that the big league boys were un-
able to do, and what the Barons failed
to do when he pitched for the White Sox
Today's Admission.
The price of admission for todays game
has been reduced to 25 cents for the grand
stand, and this will probably bring out a.
large crowd. The college boys are apt
to put up much better article of ball
today than they did yesterday. as they
seemed ratified yesterday. They have
showed better form in previous games.
and they were suffering little from
fatigue owing to a long railroad trip yes-
| terday.
The crowd enjoyed the game despite
the fact that it was a little slow. The
mere fact that the Barons were having
such good time and getting such good
practice was the cause of much merri
ment' more really than would have been
enjoyed had there been closer game.
