In The FIELD OF SPORTS
LOCALS LOST
BY ONE RUN.
But BOrCheIl Famed the WiIm.
lngtOH COlOred Giant Bats
men Sixteen Times.

Fred Burchell again proved him
self a pitching marvel yesterday when
the Wilmington Colored Giants struck
out sixteen times, during a game
which. the locals lost only through an
error by. brennan, the Perth Amboy
center fielder. Burchell's pitching
was remarkable and he gave an eX-
hibition which vas unique in local
diamond annals. Almost every one
of the colored batsmen succumbed at
least once to Burchell's delivery, and
some more than once. They secured
only three hits off Butts shoots. Kid
| Carter, the famous twirler of the
Philadelphia Colored Giants, pitched
an excellent game for the Whining
tons, allowing the Amboys but five
hits. Carter struck out three Am
boyans.
Drennan's costly error occurred in
the third inning, when with a man
on base he muffcd a fly which did not
look to be a particularly difficult one.
The Wilmington's second run was Sc
cured in the eighth inning when they
made two hits and Cook lacked a lit
tie agility in trying for a ball hit to
right garden. Perth Amboy's sole
tally was registered in the fourth.
Features of the game, besides Bur-
chell's pitching, were a double steal
from first to third by Craig, the
Perth Amboy second baseman, and
the work of Hill, the funny first bag
man of the Wilmingtons.
Burchell allowed the visitors but
one base on balls, while the locals
drew three passes from Carter.
Next Sunday the Quakertown team
will be at Amusement Park. Bur
chell may be in the box for the Perth
Amboys again.
The attendance yesterday was ex-
c%ellent, considering the threatening
aspect of the weather just before
game time. The crowd, which num-
bered upwards of 600, was enthusi-
astic over the numerous features OF
what was adjudged the best game this
year thus far.
