THE DIAMOND ERRORS LOST
 US THE GAME
Rogers Pitched Good Ball But the Team Behind Him Was Asleep
 at the Switch.

4 washed away whatever chances Wa
 terbury had of winning yesterday afternoons game with HolyOke,
 seven large juicy misplays furnish ing the foundation for the Paper makers five tallies. On the other hand, although there were two black
 marks in the locals error column,
 they came at time when they cut
 no figure in the single run that went
 to Durant's men. Whenever there
 were any prospects of another score
 by the visitors, Dolan and his sup
 porters frightened up and they faded
 away before brilliant bits of fielding.
 Honors were about even between Cosy Dolan and Lefty Rogers, each
 allowing but five hits. Rogers
 pitched steady ball in the face of his
 discouraging support. Caught off
 his guard once, Rogers held the ball
 while Lepine stole second base in a
 walk, and another time when he was
 not quite awake to proceedings he
 gave lazy Hoffman chance to pull
 off the big feature play of the game,
 steal home from third base.
 Hoffman had sneaked up half the
 distance when Schincel returned the
 ball to Rogers and lazy made dash
 for the plate. Rogers threw right into Schincels init and the umpire ruled Hoffman out until 1t was seen that the ball dropped to the ground. the force of Hoffman's bump into Schincel knocking the ball out of the Waterbury catcher's glove.
 Dolan, Boucher and Massey joined hands in double play, and quite the incest thing in the Waterbury field ing was double execution worked by Ward, McNellis and Lachance, with Lachance completing his end of the performance by a lengthy grab of wild throw.
 Mike McAndrews walked of with the error laurels, three being charged up against him, his old com plaint, fumblitis, bothering him in much the same manner that 1t used to attack him when he wore Paper city suit. Two rank throws by Ward were other Holyoke helpers, while a discredit mark against Captain Nichols assisted a Holyoke runner around the bases.
 Waterbury developed the error fever immediately upon the opening of the engagement, McNellis having a short bout with hit from Hoff- man. Bannon's out to the infield gave lazy second and a wild pitch, third. Four poor losses gave Lepine his base and on the first ball pitched Louie moved for second and Hoff- man made a bluff start for home. Rogers started to throw to third, but seeing that he couldn't get Hoffy, held on to the sphere, while Lepine leisurely strolled behind his back to second. While Bronkie was chasing after Massey's slam to right, Hon. man and Lepine got of the cush- ions. Tom Dowd tried daring pill fer of third in the fourth. after he had got around to second on McAn- drews's misplay. but Rogers woke up in time to head him of.
 Holyoke added runs in the sixth, seventh and eighth. The sixth in- ming tally was made by Grubb, who started with a double tap to center, went to third on Dowd's infield out and home when Ward made a poor return to Schincel of Boucher's grounder to short.

Wards double Co center garden. a passed ball and Bronkie's hit to left scored Waterbury's only mark in the fifth.
