The Birmingham age-herald., 1908-08-12
Notes of the Game.

After stating no later than yesterday that the Barons were seldom shut-out, 1t was too bad-that dose yesterday.
 That man not witnessing the contest cannot appreciate its ludicrous features Get team to going down hill and everything it touches turns to sting 1t.
 Bill Douglass is the only Baron who hit the ball a fair percentage of times.
 Each Cracker with the exception of Johns, got his bingle, and several of them got too many.
 Bauer is perhaps the best hitting pitch CT in the league. He figured just a mo- ment yesterday, but got his bingle and nothing but Moran's good fielding kept the hit within the limits of a single.
 And Otto Jordan stung the ball exceed ingly hard! This fact was as remark able as Lew Walters brace of errors.
 It was simply an off day and the game this afternoon should come easy. Bauer is scheduled to work for Birmingham Radabaugh or Maxwell will pitch for Att lanta
 Manager Molesworth, after stinging the ball so regularly this season, has re- gently had a big slump. He got his first l hit yesterday in four games.
 The Crackers, winning their first game in more than a week yesterday afternoon, were as happy as children. They shouted upon the field, and smilngly chattered on the players bench. And you should have seen our old friend Billy Smith. ] He with a grouch? No, indeedl He was 1 the genial lad on yesterday. Billy was chesty last night. He began figuring on taking the one remaining this l afternoon. We took the last series played here you remember" he pleaded l in extenuation.
 Tommy Raub tells good one on Short stop Clayton.
 We were among several youngsters trying to make good with St. Louis. On the spring trip money was an exceed ingly scarce commodity among the play ! CTS I was the only yannigan who had trife stored away. Well, one night l I asked several of the boys, among the number Clayton, who was only 19 years of age at the time, to have drink. At the counter I laid down s bill Clay toms eyes bulged. Why cried he in amazement, T didn't know there was that much money in the world D
 Neither of the lads remained long in St. Louis. incidentally.
 Bill Dyer is doing very nice work for Atlanta It Is understood here that the quiet chap is not appreciated in Atlanta In Birmingham, however, he seldom fails to deliver the goods.
 About 1900 fans witnessed the spectac. ular Git was spectacular engagement These 12OO, 1t is respectfully reported, were disgusted when the afternoons frolic wa, concluded.
 A game like yesterdays never does the sport any good baseball farce hurt. the attendance more than any other dozer things. It's the most expensive fur imaginable. There won't be corporal. guard at the park this afternoon.
 Fleharty thought himself stronger thar he was After the first two innings 1T which he worked he was all in, and f required all his strength to dish then across the pan.
 l One more engagement with the Crack CTS. then they disappear from Birming ham until the dawning of another year May that dawning be propitous or no at all!
 Russell Ford laughed while Gene wa, | getting trounced yesterday. But Gene laughed the day before.
 l We'll it won't matter in a hundred years. Everybody gets theirs. sooner o later (nlched from socrates).
