home on the same play, but was caught a
the plate. Perkins went to second, but

that station and he gathered the ball and
sent 1t like cannon shot to first, catching
the runner. Hamilton sent a beauty to
left field, but Lush ended the inning by
being caught on fly to center.

looked safe. but Parcel captured it after
long run. Ried hit to centre and brought
Hoffman home, Ried reaching second
Hamilton went out at first
Parcel was out at first and Golden struck
out. Blackburn hit the ball, but he sent
it right into the first baseman's hands, so
there was no use of the runner trying to
get safe.
Fifth inning-Lush hit fly that would
have gone over the head of an ordinary
sized man, but Golden is rather tall, and
all he had to do was to put his hands up
and catch the ball. O'Hara struck out.
Phifer was out at first.
Warrick struck out. Morgan out on a
fly. Peacock was thrown out at first
Sixth inning Kilmer sent a beauty
over the short stop. He reached first In

second and Kilmer started for third only
to be intercepted by Perkins, to whom
the ball was thrown. Hoffman struck
out and Hopkins died at first.
Kuhn hit over second. Lindsay got
to first but forced Kuhn at second. Per-
kins sent beauty to right field on which
he and Lindsay took two bases. Parcel
sent fly to left field, and if Lindsay had
remained on his base he could easily have
scored, but he played so far off that he
was not even able to get back to third
and double play followed.
Seventh inning Braddock was out at
first, Ried hit to the pitcher who was not
quick enough to catch the runner. Ried,
however, was forced at second by Hamil-
ton. Lush hit to left and Hamilton went
to third. O'Hara sent up fly that three
men tried to get under, but none of them
were successful, and Hamilton trotted

fly. Warrick sent one to centre field that
was spoiled by the guardian of that posi-

around. He caught one on the end of his
bat and sent 1t flying between centre and
left fields. Blackburn started for it and,
after long run, caught the ball about a
foot from the ground. Hoffman hit oyer
shortstop, but was forced at second by
Hopkins who reached first on what ought
to have been an easy double play. Kuhn

to score In this inning was spoiled by
