Jimmy Mcclure and his band of climb
ers from the town of brown bread and
baked beans were out for revenge yes
terday ana. although they did sue
ceed in eking out a victory, the win
ming run was not scored until the
eleventh inning, when It was getting so
dark that another round would have been
cut of the question.
As on the day previous. the reOrganized
Nationals, as,a whole. played fast ball.
and at times gave real exhibitions Of
sensational work in the field, at the bat,
and on the bases, but il was largely
due to the sleepiness Of one Case Patten
that allowed the Pilgrims TO get half
OF their tallies. For a while the south
paw was all over the field backing up,
handling assists. and being Johnny on the
spot for put-Outs. but as the game wore
on the sideWheeler seemed to tire, and he
has no one but himself to blame for the
loss Of the game. So far as actual fling
ing was concerned Patten was the goods,
as he allowed only six hits in eight in
nings.
In the fourth. with a man on second,
Unglaub singled TO left. and the throw TO
the plate took wild bound and rolled TO
the stand. allowing the runner to score
and Unglaub pull up at third. while Pat
ten remained in the box and watched
proceedings from afar instead OF backing
I'D his catcher In the sixth Patten stood
IN the diamond with the ball and allowed
q runner TO waltz down 10 second. from
later on a short double TO left field.
These two oversights on the part Of the
pitcher proved costly To the home club
Pilgrims Outhit.
Cy Morgan was on the mound for Bos-
ton, and although he had ten strike-outs
before the afternoons performance was
concluded. the Nationals Outhit the Wis
itors Until the eleventh the bingles stood
nine to six in favor of our team, but in
the last inning the Pilgrims made the
two hits which decided the issue.
Before the game was half over Boston
lost her field captain, Bob Unglaub, be
cause he became enraged at a decision
and threw the ball into the stand. In the
fourth inning a foul ball went just out
side Of first base and Sheridan called
strike Unglaub claimed that il hit fair
but the umpire refused to change his de-
cision so the captain picked up the ball
and sent il flying between shortstop and
third base into the left-feld pavilion.
Sheridan Immediately ordered Unglaub
out of the game. and when the player
walked to the visitors bench, he was
received with Kisses and jeers from the
crowd.

from AIilan's bat in the fifth inning, was
the most brilliant play of the day,
