Inc series OF games between the In.
dians and Lumbermen has been interest.
ing to the fans and very profitable to the
Lumbermen.
thursday g game was very close one,
the score being 5 to 8 in favor of the
home team. Brnker was in the box for
the locals and held the Indians down to
five hits, four of them being in the third
inning when the visitors scored three
times. the only inning in which thew
crossed the plate. Rush started in to
dish up the dope to us, but lasted quick,
The first man up in our half OF the first
inning, Hurley, got single, Wee Willie
Campbell then lined out two base hit.
then Mr.. Nehring smashed out a three
Dagger. Just at this stage of the pro.
ceedlngs Rush called tor help, and
Franklin was put in the box. This did
not help much fer sullivan drove out a
single. Brother Dick Boettiger sacrificed.
Brown singled, Oscar Boettger was given
first on balls, SO was Baker, Brinker hit
safe, and when the bell rang, five talies
were recorded for the Lumbermen. This
ended our run getting. From that time
on Franklin pitched ball, and the longer
he pitched the better he got.
We won fridays game with Tonneson
in the box. the score being 4 tol.
Saturdays game was another of those
games which make the fans have heart
troubles, and as usual Dad Brown came
in with lit at the right time and saved
the day. Say, we will have to stop
calling hip "Dad" and call him 'The
Pinch. Hithng Kid" for he is certainly
there with'the walop when it is needed,
In that game Spokane got run in the
third; we got one in the fifth; Spokane
got one in the eighth; we got one in the
eighth. With the score tied and Simons
pitching his head almost off, it began to
look like an extra inning game. Nehring.
first man up for us, struck out, and the
fans looked at watches and looked for
small boy to 60 and tell the folks at home
they were busy and couldn't come home
to supper. Sullivan hit for two sacks,
Dick Boettiger went out on foul tly
with two men gone, Spokane playing
like big leaguers, Simons gritting his
teeth and steaming them over the plate
a rate to make the most loyal fan lose
confidence in himself, it looked as though !
they would have to send two bows
home to make their excuses, when
Pinch. Hitting Kid Brown walked np TO |
the plate, gave his belt that old familiar |
jerk, smote that horse-hde and, "over
the garden wall" it sailed for two bases.
Sullivan came home in trot and the |
score 3 to =, and in our favor, we all came |
away happy. Dunn was on the slab for
the Lumbermen, and gave only six hits, |
while Mr.. Simons was kind enough to
give us the same number.
Sunday morning Tonneson was the
bright particular star for the Grays, and
the way he pitched ball was caution;
eleven strike outs were marked up to his !
credit He allowed but seven hits, and |
they were scattered. Spokane faie to |
score. The Grays scored twice in the
second canto and once in the seventh.
Franklin allowed the same number of !
hits as Tonneson, seven. The game was |
fast, only a very few errors being made |
on either side.
But Sunday afternoon Spokane took |
sweet revenge on MS. After dropping
five straight it looked good to us with |
Brinker in the box for six sure, but he |
retired in the seventh in favor of Good
win. Spokane had struck her gait bv
that time and nothing could stop them
they just had to hit the ball and score.
and by the time they We're over with
their half of the ninth inning the scorer
had chalked up nine runs in their col
umn, while eight goose eggs stared us in
the face when we looked at the G,avs'
column. Say, it was awful the way that
little curly.legged pitcher threw that
ball, and that too, after we had made
him take to the tall timber only few days
before. You know who l mean, DR.,
Rush, OF Spokane. Why, ne mixed up
such lot OF Lwlsters, benders. curves,
shoots and speed for our fellows that the
dose was really sickenlng and the worst
OF it was that they had to take their
medicine like little men. Well, when
we went to bat in the ninth, Nehrng hit
safe for two sacks, Sullivan sent one up
in the air and Swain grabbed it, Dick
Boettiser hit safe, Brown followed him
with another safe one, Nehring scoring,
Oscar Boettiger hit to McKune and Brown
was caught at second, Baker hit to Ferris
and was thrown out at first. The best
We could get out OF it was one little run.
The boys 60 away tomorrow for
three weeks trip, and our fervent PRAYER
ie that they will at least break even on
the road
