ms though the locals had the game
all sewed up.
At the beginning of the ninth inn
ing, with the score standing 1913 in
favor of the local team, the Spald-
ings came in and scored three runs,
much to the disappointment of the
fans who were gathered there In
thousands to see the Hawaiis win the
third game from the Coast boys.
The game yesterday was one that
was filled with all sorts of playing.
II was the kind that should highly
.lease any fan. There was action
each and every moment, good plays
following bad in quick succession
and the spectators never knew what
was coming next. The Hawaii team
chased two pitchers to the bench and
Silent" Burns, as the last resort,
was called upon to save the day. IL
was lucky for "Mique" Fisher and
his bunch that Burns was signed to
take the trip at the eleventh hour.
At the end of the seventh inning
the All-Hawaii team was two runs to
the good and 1t looked as though
they would surely pull out with the
game, as they had been holding the
professionals safe. In that awful
ninth the Spaldings had first chance
at the ball. Williams started the
trouble with 2-cushion shot to
right center. Nealon followed with
the same kind of a poke and Will
liams scored and Nealon went TO
third. Donahue hit toward Darcy
and before the ball could be fielded
in Donahue raced to third Bliss hit
to the infield and Donahue started
for the pan. Joy took the throw and
so blocked the plate that Donahue
missed 1t by at least half foot. Ev-
eryone saw the play but Umpire
Bower, who declared the runner safe
Hampton registered a hard kick but
1t did no good There is absolutely
no question but what Donahue was
out at the plate. This run and de-
cision cost the locals the game and
they must suffer for another's mis-
take. imp. Bower was sick during
yesterdays game and while his deci-
sions were poor he can hardly be
blamed. or course II is hard to think
that our boys lost through a mistake
by the umpire, but 1t is now history,
and there is little use Grabbing"
The locals must be given credit for
their hitting. Henley, the Frisco
pitcher. is as good as can be found
anywhere, and when the locals chase
a man of his caliber to the bench
they are going some. Henley had ev-
erything yesterday and even at that
could not stop the locals from stick
ing.
\ Inning one saw both teams blank
ed. Hampton drew pass and
stole second in this spasm, but could
get no further. Williams, for the
Coast team, got past third but was
thrown out at the plate by Mahuka
on first.
The second inning was more dis
astrous for the locals. Williams
reached first on j. Williams poor
heave to first. He stole second. Neal
on drew pass. Donahue famed.
Williams stole third. Red Dog" hit
to Mahuka, who threw out williams
at the plate. Bill stroiled. "Slivers"
Henley punched out dandy over
second and both Nealon and then
Hildebrand singled and Devereaux
and Bliss raced in.
In their half OF this inning the
All-Hawaii team made two runs. Joy
singled and stole second. Aylett
reached first on Donahue's error. Joy
went to third. Darcy poked a beaut
ever third, bringing in Joy and Ay-
lett went on to second. Nealon made
o wild throw to the plate and Aylett
scored. Hampton drove liner that
had all the earmarks of a hit. Zeider
leaped high in the air and speared
the drive with. his left mitt, the
force Of the ball knocking him over
but he squeezed 1T and thereby pull
ed off perhaps the prettiest play that
has ever been seen on a local dia-
mond. Hampton,. who has been
playing In form, was robbed of hit.
The third and fourth were also bad
innings for the home team. Reuters
shoots were Strengthened for pretty
bingles and were so punched in
these innings that five more runs
were scored.
The All-Hawaii team came up
strong In the sixth and seventh,
when they began to find Henley hard.
They had their lamps trimmed and
made the best Of things. Barney Joy
on second and Jim Williams on third
pulled off "between-base" stunt
that put the profs. in the air and got
Williams across the pan. Darcy was
the real kid and drove ball far into
