EXTRA INNINGS
ARE NECESSARY
The Saints and Puns Fight Out
Game. the Former
Winning.

There was a great mixture of base
ball at the League grounds yesterday.
The first game was so poor that the
crowd was hardly satisfied. But the
second game. 1t made up for every
thing that was lacking in the first con-
test. It was the first extra inning
game of the season and from the very
start, first one team and then the
other was in the lead, and the ex-
element was intense all the way
through. The st. Louis team finally
won after twelve innings of hard
play, and they deserved their victory.
Several times before they had the
game in their grasp and the Puns man.
aged to pull through but when the
final inning came, Bushnell brought in
the winning run after combination
of good hitting and clean base run
nins.
The feature of the game was Hamp-
toms all around playing. He started
the game at third but come into the

shape and was in the best form that
he has shown for many a day.

team made a catch in the seventh in

wonder. Running backwards at fun

league men could have handled He
nlayed a fine game all the way through
and was a real treat.
Castle did some of the cleanest MT
ting that has been seen here for a
long time. In the field he had
couple of chances which he accepted
and one that he missed. It was a hard
hv to get and he misjudged 1t, then
tried to catch it far above his head
The error allowed two runs to be
scored, which otherwise would have
never appeared.
David Desha played a rather ragged
fielding game. making several errors
which were unexcusable and which
cost runs. but his batting and base
running was very good. Bob McCor-
iriston caught for the Puns ana wheh

in the winning run, it must be re-
r,ambared that Hampton is very

experienced player than McCorrlston
would have been in a bad place re-

In the first game there was not an
earned run. Errors were made IN pro-
fusion on both sides and the only
thing that let the Heads get away Win
the contest was the fact that tneli
onnonents made errors at times when
il meant more in runs.
