DARKNESS ENDS
l6FRAME GAME
Portsmouth Ties II up in
Eighth Inning.
PITCHERS IN GREAT FORM
Both Brown and Crichton
Effective In Latter Part.
O'Day Shines at Second with IS
Chances Fast Double Play Made
by Diggers.

Portsmouth, Aug. 15-(SpeciaD-
Yesterdays contest with the Diggers
was one of the prettiest games of
the season and was hard fought
throughout. 1t looked like Marion's
game until the eighth inning when
the Night Riders pounced on Brown
at the right time and by getting
two runs managed to tie the score.
From now on until the finish it
was anybody's game. After the
seventh the Diggers were almost
hitless. Only one safety was secured
OFF Crichtons delivery. But in the
early innings the local pitcher was
hit hard and It required some won
derful work ON the part of the
locals to keep the Diggers from sew
ing up the contest.
Brown did the heaving for the
Dggers At times he was inclined to
be erratic but in the main his work
was on the circus order. He got out
OF numerous tight places by some
mighty throwing and some of the
great work behind him. At second
base O'Day played the greatest game
OF his career. making seven put
onts and eleven assists without a
wobble of any kind. 1t was mag
nificent exhibition that the mana
ger gave and numerous times he
was applauded by the fans.
Portsmouth blanked the Diggers
in the first and then started TO
bat out victory in its half. Two
runners were sent over the rubber
The Diggers came back in the next
and some sharp hitting sent Tate
and Ketter over the desired goal,
tying the score. When in the sixth
O'Day and Wolfe crossed the pan
making the score four to two II
looked as though the Diggers had
the contest sewed up. But such was
not TO be for in the eighth the
home team got to Brown and when
the rally was over two more had
been added, and everybody was
four There 1t stayed all through
those long innings. With the
pitchers working in matchess form
and with the fielders playing like
their lives depended upon the out
come. there was nothing doing in
the scoring Line. In the sixteenth
the game was called on account of
darkness.
One of the features of the game
was double play executed by
