BOSTON Mass April 11.-More I'M
comfortable conditions for ball game
Than those that prevailed yeste:d day. when
Boston again dcwned Washington. :; TO
l. would be difficult To imagine. yet al
most otjV people stamped and shivered IN
what was almost freezing weather. II
is doubtful If ever So many people turned
out under such circumstances. 1t was
really FAR too cold To pay ball. Boston $
win WAS due To the fact that the hits
off Hughes were punched. Four weie
made i'm the first inning and three in the
sixth and those were sufficient TO land
the day for Washington could not do
anything tina, looked like punching off
~ Morgan and had to be content
with the same number Of runs as OIL
Tuesday. Just one.
Jim De!ehanty The only one OF
the Washinetons for whom Morgan had
no terrors at all. and he lined out three
as pretty drives as one would care 10
see. and scored the only run for his side.
The Vaun;ed Thoney did the best hitting
for Boston. but Street. VINO caught
hang-up game had the satisfaction OF
throwing him out In try To steal. Lord
and I.aporte also did some fine hitting. In
five of the innings Hughes succeeded in
disposing of his opponents i'm one. two
three order. He had splendid command
the other hand. Morgan passed five and
he famed ten. Hughes contributed three
TO his number. Milan batted for the
pitcher in the last inning. but it did no
good, he also went out on strikes.
Freeman. the new first baseman of the
Washinetons played very credila bic
game. but again failed TO negotiate for d
hit. Delehanty did mighty good service
at the second bag. though he was very
lame. Street made Il decided hit by his
ck-St
evident adjunct to the team. For Bos
ton JngIaub played brilliantly at hrst.
Stuck at Third.
Washington twice worked around TO
third in the first three innings. but could
not manage to get run. In the first in
ming Ganley was passed and made three
quarters of the circle on Dels out and
passed ball only TO be left pretty
play by Lord In the third after Shipke
and Hughes had famed. Pickering made
first on tnglaub's muff of Wagner sthrow
off. Pickering stole second ard went 10
third on Carrigans misfit throw. Ganley
again walked and stole second. but Pick
ering was fooled and caught off third
Boston got winning lead at the very
start. Thoney made TWO bases by fast
running on ball TO left that Ganley
stopped the first bound. Lord hunted
safely. but Shiphe's throw Was slow and
Thoney took advantage of the fact to race
home. McHale's sacrifice and LaPorte's
drive To left let in another run. Although
t-n2laub also hit safely the run getting
stopped Wagner being thrown out by
Del.
Washing ton tielded we'll in the second
Freeman making fine pickup OF d poor
shy by Mcbride and Del making d nice
stop off Morgan. Thoney made single
and was out trying 10 steal Washington
got run back in the fourth. when De!
sent the ball whiZZing by second and took
second on Clymer'S out. Freeman walked
and Street tanned. but McBride was on
hand with fine drive 10 right that scored
Del. Freeman reached third. Mac stole
second and ii up to Shipke to put his
club mates in the lead but all he could do
was send punN one TO Morgan. on which
lac was counted out
