COMMENT ON THE GAME.

The Is per cent that Is lacking in Falk-
enberg and is represented in wild pitch
es was entirely missing yesterday and
the tall boy performed like first-class
man. He gave only two bases on balls
and had the hard-hitting Maps guessing
in big majority Of the innings. Falken-
berg is probably not adapted to do the
rescue act when other pitchers are being
trimmed, but when started right off the
reel and with the knowledge of his re-
sponsibility hanging continually before
him there are few twirlers much better
1t cannot be case of lacking sand" as
his support yesterday was far from first
class. yet Falks exhibition in the first,
fifth and eighth innings was OF the nerv-
lest sort possible. In the fifth the Maps
led of with a single and triple, but
garnered only two runs, and in the eighth
Hickman and Lajoie were on third and
second. respectively. with no one out
but the tall boy kept either one from
crossing the plate
Jerry Freeman is entitled to a bouquet
for his playing yesterday, although he
did pull off a wild throw that might have
lost the game. In the first inning Milan
threw home to head of Josh Clarke after
capturing Lajoie's fly. and the ball went
high over Streets head. Jerry was back
of Street, and the backing-up kept Hick-
man from going to third. He had twelve
putouts at first. and at least a half doz-

The Nationals made it three victories
out of four games played yesterday by
defeating Cleveland, 5 to 3. And Tom
Hughes didn't pitch. Mr.. Fred Falken-

two of which could be punched together.

Jake Thielman was on the rubber for
the Clevelands. and, as usual, the Ger
mans slow curves and spit ball were hit
hard and at the right time. If the
records are looked up it will be found
that Jake has his first game to win in
this city.
: Back OF the pitchers the fielding was
drst class on the Maps part, while the
Nationals transgressed in the error col

these errors were several very pretty
fielding stunts and taking their work al
together little complaint can be found.

front and were never again headed. After
Milan had gone out on a roller to Per-

Pickering then pulled a line fly into right
field. about foot inside the foul line, and
on its first bound it cleared the rail in
front Of the bleacher seat and went in
among the happy occupants. 1t meant a
home run, and when the spectators real
lied that luck had smiled on us once
again they set up a gleeful shout. Dan
trotted around the bases, a yard-wide
smile canning all over his honest coun
tenance. The next two batters were easy
outs at first
There were signs of trouble for the
locals in the eighth inning. but "Falk"
was on to his job. and got out Of the diff

but in throwing to second the ball went

keeping on to third and Larry to second.
Here were two on bases and no one out,
and everybody mad enough to lick his
mother-in-law. Then Mr.. Falkenberg
came to the fore in gallant style. Bemis
was made to fly to Ganley in short left
and Hickman was held on third. Hinch-
man struck out. and Perring died on
roller to Altizer. 1t was deep hole. and
"Falk" deserves credit for his swell re-
covery.
In the same inning the Nationals made
their fifth and last run, the result OF
single by Freeman and beautiful drive

George Mcbride.
The Maps went out in order In their
