Walter Was Also There.

waiter was Also Inere.
Hinchman opened the .nird session with
a triple to deep center. Berger got two
strikes, fouled off a dozen balls and then
hit over Brownies head for double. It
looked as IL the Maps would tie the score
then and there. Hinchnan was across
the pan and Berger on second, with none
down. Johnson frightened up and famed
Goode and Bradley, while Turner boosted
to Browne.
The Nationals increased their lead in
the fourth by reason of some very weird
work on the part of Ted Easterly. Milan
shot single to left and was sacrificed
Clymer's little roller, else he might have
thrown Milan out at the Lajoie station
and the two scores would never have
happened. Mcbride fooled Bradley by
bunting safely along third. With Stree;
up Mcbride started to steal on the second
strike. Easterly made a b.. to throw
to second to draw Milan off third. He
succeeded, but in throwing to third he
plugged Milan in the back with the ball
1t rolled to left field and Milan and Nc
Bride both registered. Berger then
famed Street and Gray, w.o was sent to
bat for Johnson.
With Hughes pitching in the fourth
Lajoie beat out a hit to deep short with
famed. In the fifth a swell catch by
Browne of Hinchman's line drive robbed
the big Nap of double. Berger famed,
while Mcbride threw out Goode.
Some Pitching Here.
Bradley famed on three pitched balls in
the sixth. Turner got three balls, but
Hughes followed with three successive
strikes, Turner never offering at a single
one. Lord rolled to Mcbride.
Iajoie opened the seventh with a single
to left. and Stovall duplicated the bingle.
Easterly's best was a slow roller to
Hughes. who tossed Lajoie out at third.
Hinchman and Clarke, the latter batting
for Berger, both famed. In the eighth
Goode famed and Bradley was safe when
Mcbride made his third tumble. Turner
popped to Mcbride, but Lords single over
second sent Brad to third, Brscoe reach
ing second on Milan's peg to Conroyville.
1t looked like a couple of tallies with La
joie at bat, but he fell q victim Of
Hughes curves.
The Maps went out in order in the
ninth, Stovall flying to Browne, while
Easterly and Hinchman famed. The Ma
tionals never loomed dangerous as far as
runs are concerned after the fourth, but
they had an ample sufficiency to win the
game. In the fifth only the fastest kind
of fielding robbed Browne of hit. Sto-
vail fielded his grounder to Berger, who
into the bag. but Sheridan ruled him
out. 1t was a red-hair decision. Hinch-
man then pulled down what had the ear
marks of a triple off Conroy's bat. Dele
hanty followed with double, the ball
just remaining within the boundary line
until it crossed third. Donohue famed
second time. Mcbride was the only
National to make Stovali's acquaintance
in the sixth. He drew four balls with
two down. but was forced at second on
Streets grounder to Turner, nice play
for Terry.
Star Fielding Play.
What was probably the best fielding
play of the day came up in the seventh.
Browne beat out one of his copyrighted
bunts along third after Hughes had fan
ned and tried to race from first to third
cover second when Conroy connected with
the territory just vacated by Turner
Terry stopped short, scooped up the ball
and with a perfect underhand throw
nailed Wild at first. Stovall saw Browne
hot-footing it for third and shot the ball
to Bradley. mailing the ex-Philly, Dove,
Giant and Cub by inches.
Delehanty drew a pass to start the
eighth. Donohue flied to Goode and Dele
hanty was pinched stealing. Milan then
a race for the bag between the pair.
Both made long slides into the base, and
all that one could see was mass OF
legs. Sheridan ruled that Stovall had
beaten the fleet Milan.
A beautiful scoop and underhand throw
of Clymer's short roller by Turner in the
ninth retired Otis. Mcbride walked.
a single to left. Browne flied to Turner.
