enworth has had just one good thing
this year-its outfield. Let's let it alone
for Heavens sake. If Fisher must be
held as relief catcher, and he ought to
be, let the management keep him in
place of one of it's execrable slab artists
or put Schaumyer at first and play
Fisher at second, thus greatly improv-
ing very wobbly corner of the infield-
a corner which has been neither hitting,
fielding nor showing any signs of play
ing ball. Fans generally were consider
ably shocked by yesterdays funny work
which didn't result badly because there
was any chance. Not for any other
reason. Let's have no playing of favctt
ties.
Landreth and Davis have traded
places. This was done on account of
the sun field which at Hutchinson was
the left garden. Davis is one of the
best sun fielders in the league.
Spencerino Abbott returned home yes
terday from Hutchinson. He is afflicted
with a bad case of sore throat and tonsi-
litis and rest was thought to be the
best thing for him. Boles is taking his
place at first and putting up a good
game.
Topeka now has three postponed
games to play with Webb City which
have been scheduled for the season SO
far and have not been played. Two
were from the series in Topeka two
weeks ago and the other game is the
one which was not played yesterday on
account of Topeka not being able to
