Defeats Hartford Team BY a
Score of 3 to Sunday
Afternoon

In close game which was marked
by hard work, WatertOWn won from
Hartford yesterday afternoon 8 to l.
Up to the eighth inning the score
stood to l, but with two men out
krOnitz laced out the ball into left
field which necessitated the climbing
OF the fence to field, and walked
home. The game was one which gave
the felders on both sides plenty of
opportunities. Both pitchers were a
little off in delivery at times, but the
passes given were not many. The
game was not marked by any particu-
lar excitement, being rather game
calling for logged determination and
hard work.
Hartford was first up and a runner
reached third base but died there.
Hahn for Watertown was put out at
first; Berigan went out on a fly and
Kronitz famed.
In the second Hartford was retired
three times at first base. Ruedig
laced out a two Dagger, Schultz
reached first, scoring Ruedig, but was
put out at second; Kuenzi famed and
Leschinger died going to first.
Hartford made its only score in
the third. The first man up found the
sphere for one base and the next man
did likewise, scoring the first runner;
the next man hit but the runner was
put out at home. Hallett caught the
runner asleep at second and retired
him; the last man up stole second
and third bases, but the next man up
| struck out. In this inning Hartford
scored on three fast grounders into
| right field which were hard to gather
in. Watertown made it's second score
