COVENTRY AND STERLING
SPLIT EVEN BY SAME SCORE.
Double Header 8 to 2-coventry Coax
ed Back After Leaving Field.

Sunday baseball playing being al
lowed in Rhode Island, was taken adj
vantage of at Coventry Center, r. l..
Sunday, June 10, when Coventry cross
Ell bats with the team from Sterling,
CT, for a double header, and the old
tine residents of that town witnessed
two Of the fastest games Of amateur
ball ever played on Rhode Island soil
Fully one hundred rooters from
Sterling accompanied their idols, and
the seven days war dance Of the Sioux
tribe in the time of trouble was a mild
comparison to the vocal support that
was given the visiting team.
Both games were battles royal from
the time the first ball was pitched UNI
til the last man was declared out, and
the sensational playing of the visiting
team was a surprise to the natives Of
both states.
Doyle pitched two great games and
should have won both, but bad de-
cision in the seventh robbed him of
the last. The features of the game
were sensational fielding by Buckley,
Greene and Burdick, Vanner's batting,
and Brumsdon's catching for Sterling;
for Coventry w. Olney and Jordan
lated well. while Gillespie was a. good
actor behind the bat.
In the fourth inning of the last game
the Coventry manager took his men
from the field, disputing the umpire's
decision at second, and the game was
given to Sterling to 0, but Sterling
players finally prevailed on Umpire
Frechette to reverse this decision and
continue the game.
AS lovers of the national sport Cow
entry fans and players certainly lack
the proper spirit.
