but sunny.
Wagner Was Fast.
Hans Wagner played a marve,ous
fielding game, but mace only one hit
in his four times a. nat. He covered
third, retiring Detroit players twice
by crowding Byrnc out of the way
anl taking the play himself. In the
fourth inning he raced over third
base, took Millers assist on Mari
aritys hit and retired Delehanty
Again in the sixth he covered third
and took Camnitz's assist retiring
Schmidt,
Mullin, Schmidt, Crawford and
Bush were the stars for Detroit. Mul
Inns wonderful pitching after he was
numerically hammered in the first
inning was a revocation. Four hits
were made off him III rapid success
sion. but between the first and ninth
innings, he allowed Only two safe hits
The ninth opened with three safe
hits in succession by i'ittsburg, but
again Mullin stopped his hard hitting
opponents before they reaped a sub.
stantial advantage from his short
lapse. Pittsburg made a total of nine
hits off Mullin, seven of them punched
in the first and ninth innings.
One Of the most sensational plays
was a double by Schmidt and Bush in
the sixth inning. With Miller on
first, Absein lifted a high foul, which
Schmidt caught with his back to the
field. Miller started ror second after
the catch, but a wonderfully fast
whip by Schmidt and a great one
handed catch with sweep downward
by Bush caught Miller off second
after the Pittsburg man made des
perate slide.
Schmidt played wonderfully fine
game and saved Mulnn two or three
wild pitches by marvellous catches.
