The baseball game between tn
town team and Military Institute yes
terday afternoon resulted unsatisfac
torily to the spectators. In the mint
inning, with the score a tie, the play
ers left the field without fiaishin;
the game, and those whose sympa
thies were on either side of the fenc,
had to go nome without seeing thei
team have a chance to win. Accord
ing to Umpire Lohman, the score
should count only to the eighth in
ming, since the Institute did not ge
to bat its half of the ninth, in which
event the victory would go to the
school team, three to two.
Captain Leland, of the town team
claims the game for the reason thai
he and other town players left the
field when Captain Wynne, of the Ia
stitute team took off his glove, quit
the diamond and declared he would
not play. Captain Leland bases his
claim on Section of Rule 26 in Spaul
ding's Official Baseball Guide for 1907
which says that "a forfeit game shall
be declared by the umpire in favor
of the club not in fault, if after the
game has begun one side refuses to
continue to play, unless the game
has been suspended or terminated by
the umpire
Aside from the unfinished phase OF
the game, the whole exhibition was
slow and tiresome, largely on account
of the constant 'trag-chewing" of
some of the players. The score looks
as if it might have been good game,
but the score is often deceptive. as
it was in this case.
The game opened with each team
making two scores ON errors. In the
second inning the Institute made the
only earned run of the game, when a
two-base hit was followed by a run
ner getting down ON fielder's choice
and two more singles Then the game
worried on in slow monotony through
five more innings without a score.
The only thing that broke the tedium
was the work of the outfield of both
teams, several fine catches being
made. Watkins, in left for the Insti-
tute, made one stab catch that was
sensational.
A side attraction came up in the
fifth in the way of fight among
some boys in the bleachers. The fight
ers and their friends and spectators
worked out into the diamond and the
game had to be stopped until peace
could be restored.
In the ninth things warmed up con-
siderably. Reeves was first up a1d
went out, second to first. Grissitt got
a clean hit. and St. John followed
with another. Wilson batted to Mon
toya. who fumbled, letting the batter
down and Grissitt score. Leland struck
out David was up and was hit in the
back with the pitched ball. He ran
TO first and Umpire Lohman called
1t ball. ordering David back on the
ground that he had made no effort
to dodge the pitched ball Meanwhile
st. John ran in, but the umpire ruled
aim back to third on the ground that
ne ran in on a dead ball When David
refused to return to the bat after be
ing struck, Wynne, pitching for the
Institute. took on his glove. threw 1t
to one of his players and quit the
diamond. declaring he would not
play At this all the players came in.
