In a ten-inning pitchers battle az Ninton
street park Monday afternoon before the
grand stand filled with all sorts Of beauty
and chivalry the Rourke family came out
victorious over Denver by ] TO 0. Omaha
had no chance 20 lose for II was Pa
Rourkes birthday. and It has become an
established custom for the Omaha team
20 win on that eventful day, so all you who
lost your little wages on the game can
get your money back. because gambling
ethics do not permit Of a wager being col
lected when bet on a sure thing. History
was simply repeating herself for a year
ago when Pa celebrated his forty-frst
birthday. before an immense Sunday crowd
the Rourkes annexed two games.
Again was Big Jack Pfeister in good
form and as has been said before, It is Of
no use for any team to try to beat him
when that is the case. OF course, they
might tie him as they nearly did yester-
day, but they cannot beat him. He started
out like a whirlwnd and out of the nine
put outs in the first three innings seven
we're strike outs by Big John. During the
whole ten innings he permitted but three
little singles, and passed but two, while
he struck out ten. Every man on the Den
yer team, except Hoelskoetter and Belden,
was forced to take the medicine, and Ran
dali struck out four times, or every time
that he came to bat. Hickman also pitched
a splendid game and II was no fault Of his

of the fans who had bet their money on
Denver stnl think that Perrine should have
stopped the liner from Thiers bat in the
tenth inning that put finish TO the game.

In the tenth Gonding hit for double clear
brought him home with a hard liner over
Perrine's head which he could just reach
but was not able to stop.
Omaha did not get hit for three innings
and then Thomas got a double which he
was not able to cash in Welch had re-
tired before Thomas hit safe and Martin
hit the ball to Hoelskoetter, who threw to
Hartzell and caught Thomas. Martin was
caught too far off first and nothing re-
suited from the double. Again in the sew
anth Martin led off with a single and Law
Ter hunted safe because all of the infield
had run in too close and the ball rolled
toward second with no one there. Gonding
sacrificed them each on for a bag and
Pfeister hit a liner at Hoelskoetter who
touched Lawler and made a double un-
assisted.
Denver never came anywhere near to
making a score, although in the fourth
inning they got a man as far as third.
Belden singled and was sacrificed to second
by Perrine. Hoelskoetter flew out to Carter
and Belden went to third on the throw,
but there he died, for Old Man Everitt hit
fly to Eddie Lawler and he was gone
Caruthers Here TO Umpire.
Bobby Caruthers was on hand to umpire
his first game in Omaha this season and
did right wen, there being no disturbance
whatever Some say he umpires better
than Spot Freese.
The same team win play at the same
place again today and tomorrow Score:
