inning and tied the score. Fisher hunted
safe and went to third, onE, Bonno's wild
throw. He scored on Autrsgss, grounder to
Fox. The score remained . tie until the
fifth inning, when with two out Fisher
singled to Jude. He stole second and came
home on Kings single to right.
The sixth inning also brought forth a
run. After Aubrey had fown out to
wenger, the new right fielder, Weich hit
for two, Austin tried out the new bat which
Pa has secured as a bunting bat and made
a safe hit. putting WEIGH. on third. Bonno
was afraid of Belden and deliberately
passed him. preferring to take his chances
with LAWYER and Gonding. King had stolen
second and Lawler hit a long fly to David
son, Welch scored from third, but a good
throw caught Austin at third,
The seventh inning was somewhat Of a
repetition OF the fifth, for a run was made
in each after Gonding and Sanders had
been put out. Fisher walked and then
came little King, He had made two hits
and was ready for the third. Picking a
good one he drove the ball over Pritchett's
head. II bounded out Of the reach of Jude
and King went to third, scoring Fisher.
With AVstin's two hits and three stolen
bases he was not able to score. Wenger is
a cute little fellow. His name is Carl and
he is about as big as a minute. He did
not set the world on fire at bat and had
plenty OF exercise In the field, ~shagging
hits which were sent in that direction.
Sanders pulled off a neat coup when he
trapped a ball from Bonno's bat and then
started a neat double play. The same
