SACRED HEART TWO,
MILTON COLLEGE 4
LOCALS LOSE FIRST CAME OF
SEASON YESTERDAY.
One of the Fastest and Most Inter
eSting TuSSleS the Crack Local
Nine Has Figured in-Shelly Not
Able to Be in the BOx-DetdilS
of the Game.

Ire Sacred Heart culIege baseball
team lost its first game to the Milton
College nine yesterday afternoon by a
score OF to 2 on the formers cam
pus. The game proved to be one of
the fastest and most interesting tus-
sic the crack local nine has figured in,
and reflects great credit upon both
teams. Shelly, the we'll known Sa-
cred Heart twirler. was not able to
pitch for the college boys, on account
OF serious sprain gained IN recent
practice. Isl" Parker, uf last
years championship team fame, was
obliged to take his place in the box,
and pitched singularly fine game for
the college. and although he had never
pitched before, acquitted himself very
creditably. Ed Reuth was also unable
to participate, on account of an acct
dent to his hand, which has kept him
On the bench for some days.
The playing was somewhat slow
during the first innings, but the teams
soon warmed up, and settled down to
their work. Parker struck out eleven
men, while Hun ley. the Milton pitcher,
struck out ten.
A big climax was reached in the
ninth inning, when Brose Ryan came
I'D to bat, with two out, and the
score four to nothing in favor of Nil :
ton. Ryan took two strikes and then
| planted single into lett field. Sea-
core, probably the hardest hitter On
the Sacred Heart team, then came to
the front, and after scoring two
strikes also, smashed a Texas Lea
guer into left field, placing Ryan on
second. At this interesting moment
The Milton pitcher went to pieces,
giving Grabeau, the Sacred Heart
catcher, three balls in succession.
Grabeau then struck twice, and on
the last strike met the ball fairly,
placing terrific drive over the right
fielder's head, bringing in Ryan and
Seacore. who had stolen a base on
Hurley. Grabeau's drive gained him
three sacks. Martin then came to the
plate, and hit to hrst for an out.
Hurley. the Milton pitcher, twirled
very good game, as did Parker, his
opponent. The team work Of the To-
cal college was most admirable, each
man being in the right place at the
right time. Sacred Heart will meet
the Marquette university nine on Sat-
urday next. This game will be one
of the fastest that Sacred Heart Will
figure in this season, and much inter-
est is centered in the contest. The
game will be called at 80 p. m.
sharp, on the Sacred Heart campus.
Admission 25c. tickets for sale at
the game.
The lineup was as follows:
