Pittsburg, Pa, August 22.-Plttsburg won the greatest baseball game ever played in this city from Brooklyn today by a score of 1 to 0. The contest lasted IT innings, which equals the National league record for 1-to-0 games, made by Chicago and Boston in 1901. Rain stopped the game today in the second inning, but play was resumed in 70 minutes on an extremely wet field, and a couple of innings were played in rather a heavy rain. Young Cy Young and Pastorius each pitched a splendid game Both were strong with men on bases. Thomas saved the game for the home team in the thirteenth inning by a long throw to the plate from center field, catching Pastorius. The winning run was made in the seventeenth in ming after two men were out.
 Young, the third man up, singled and went to third on a single by Thomas. Pastorius passed Leach, hlling the bases. Moeller, at bat for the first time, knocked a Texas leaguer over second base, bringing in Young Score: pittsburg- R. H. b.

...............s.....................


 Miller stated that there was but one pro- : test to come up, and that was the game 1 which Nashville forfeited to Montgomery ! because Hardy is said to have delayed too long a time in changing canvass shoes for the regulation shoes of the uniform. lie stated that Atlanta had not filed it's protest of the game which Birmingham won some time ago when the side was re- tired in the final inning by Wilkes being struck by a. batted ball. Smith, as is re- membered, threatened to protest because 1 the ball en route to Wilkes was touched by Pitcher Bauer.
 Among the many interesting things stated by the secretary, one was to the | effect that he believed that the direcors at the next meeting would reinstate Pitcher Stockdale, dismissed, as is known be- cause he expressed an opinion to the effect { that Memphis, had 1t chosen, could have won the pennant last season. He thought that Stockdale had been sufficiently pun ished for his indiscretion, and seemed to believe that the directors would restore him to the eligible ranks Another Interesting remark of the sec- retary was that Newton Fisher well known to the fans of the league had ap- piled for the position of umpire next sea- son.
