The fielding was sharp and brilliant on
both sides Ganley robbed Clarke OF a
two-base hit in the sixth inning by a
marvellous running catch. and incidentally
cut off a tally, as Stovall who had
doubled, was on second ready to score.
The star fielding stunt Of the day was

Hinchman singled in the second inning
and scored when Delehanty misjudged
O'Bnen's fly, which went for a double.
Flick walked for the second time in the
third, and Bradley sacrificed, but Elmer
