Hi,1-Tl1c Score.

rs EtauntOll took inc game from inc
brownies yesterday afternoon by tho
score orr TO 1. Fescr, the southpaw for
the visitors. was the enigma. Give tha,
bov time enough to wind himself up, and
there arc few battcrs In the league who
Gun connect with his delivery. Stop him
in the winding process, and there lnny
be anything shot over the plate But that
was only a side play gotten off by tho
scorer, for Ircser can throw the sphere
over the rubber with as many twist, and
kinks and curves and other jumps hs
any box artist seen here tns season.
He was connected with only four linus
yesterday. and Jack Anthony got two OF
the four. But one or Jacks hits was
kind Of scratch affair; stilli!t counts Just
the same N-gS tfls6t lsf&g 81
Rollins Deal.
Lcake Manchester's good twIrler, was
in the box for the Bdownics, and nc held
Il the visitors to one hit. But twas Roll
! lins. The midget catcher for the stanton
Aggregation. that won the game against
the champions. The small boy wnddied
up TO the plate and swung two huaarcu
ana f6rty-seven pounds Of evo'rdupoiS ut
the first ball that ct1nc over The horse
hide landed out In tho field. Rollins Is
too small 10 run. and he never gets FUR
place. BY proxy he made n run IN tho
{ fourth inning, after swinging nEdtnst
ball that went out into Jack Anthony >
territory, and which was not llelded as
we'll as Jack does when In good style.
But Patrick Collins-he's from lrelAnd--iH
there with the goods every time the hit
* ting Is needed, and he knows the game
from start to finish. When Jake Wells
made his debut before q Richmond audi :
ence rs first baseman on the Richnon3
team. Patrick was behind the bat. And
there was Tannehll and Others who are
now making regulations and other things
in big company. But Patrick was destined
TO shrink up. Slowly, day by day, week
by week. month BY month and year BY
year. he shrunk. until there was nothing
left but a shadow Of his former self. And
this little speck couldn't trot the pace,
and came down here 10 again watch
Richmond and laugh at Crutchfeld's
jokes. That's why the backstop for the:
Staunton bunch Is such good fellow
and knows the game 80 well .
Runs in the Fourth.
Richmond was Arst at bat and waited
until the fourth inning before starting
to get some runs. McE;voy In this inning
led or with a swat and proceeded at
once to pilfcr the second sack. He went
down to third when Jack Anthony lifted
ono to right. and scored when Rose drove
clean one. Eacho, who followed Jack,
lined one down 10 first. and 1t was
handled. This was the one run gotten,
and twas all that was coming TO tho
Richmond gathering.
Mad because their oppnnenA had scored,
the boys from the place where an asylum
stands. trottod from the field and grabbed
bats with terrible grip. Staley sent
one down to third, but Nc, was there,
and Sta!cy took the cemetery road at
first. Fuller got full Of balls and walked
10 first. And then the midget came up.
Tie crowd asked I>eakc to be good and
not binf the small child. and Lcake
curved one over. Rollins met It fairly,
and it went out to tho tall uncut. A
new runner was gotten at the initial sack,
and Rollins did the conching act. Fuller
over1led the prescription and spiked tho
rubber And then Harris got In harness
and smacked one. scoring Rollinss proxy.
This was all for the day. hut there was
su!icIenc;'. The Richmond fellows
didn't play like they have played be-
fore, although there are few errors
chalked against them. Mr.. Cheatha,n. ar
erstwhlle ball player. was the boss jumps.
for the day.
In tho game to-day-the last OF the Sc
rIes between the two tenins-Porter viii
do the worn in the box, and there will be
some good man from the Richmond
League to twrl for the Brownies.
The official score follows:
