Charlie Graham broke HogaG's streak
of winning on his home grounds by the
mornings victory. 1t was a close bat
tie all the way, and only an error that
permitted the final score to be pulled
over prevented a tie score and game
being called by the expiration of the
time limit. Fred Brown and Willett
were the opposing artists; both were
hit freely. but the frequent mixups
the locals had with the ball did for the
visitors what a flock Of long hits could
not.
To the eighth inning the northerners
had a to / lead over the Hoganites.
Then the suburban hitters evened up
things in the two succeeding innings. 1t
looked like three-all affair when the
Senators came up in the tenth. F1ana-
gan banged out a stiff single sacker to
right and was passed along on GandiPs
base on balls. He secured the third
vantage point when Raymer grounded
out, and on a long right field fly by the
Indian, House, he started home, get
ting off the bag as the catch was made
and scooting at top speed. A perfect
whip to home plate was made by Sto-
vail, but Kinkel, after having the ball
safely deposited III his receiver, allowed
it to wander away, and Flanagan won
the game on this run.
Most numerically did the Senators
belabor Breckenridge in the afternoon
game, which resulted in a clean shut
out of the Suburbanites, who found
Spider Baum a mystery, and whose
pitcher was an open secret to the Visi-
tors. When a team can't hit and their
twirler is being touched in large and
juicy punches, the final result is not
matter of guesswork. Breckenridge
lasted six innings, during which the
northern players landed on him for
twelve hits, two of them doubles. Then
Hap sent in his latest prize, and he
laced them over so well that the gos-
sips had it that had Raleigh performed
all the way the score might have as
sumed a more satisfactory aspect.
Raleigh's work yesterday was to say
the least impressive, for he gave the
fourth place men one dinky hit in his
three innings, struck out two and did
not allow a walk.
Our old friend Spider Baum, no long
err nicknamed the elongated since an
addition of twenty pounds has almost
transformed him, was responsible for
the first score, which came in the
second inning. He had two strikes and
three balls on him, and saw high wide
one coming. He made lunge for 1t,
and tipping the ball with the flag end

score board for a double, which brought
in House. A single by Flanagan and a
double by "Home-run" Gandil brought
in the next score in the third. In the
fifth the Senators shot ahead with two
more and repeated In the sixth. jan
sings hot single in the fifth brought
in the run-getting pair. Flanagan and
Gandil, who have worked together on
this tally trick so often that it seems
as if they have it down TO a science.
In the following period Raymer laid
down a rafting hit through center,
which scared the Vernon fielders so
badly that Baum and Shinn got home,
This was the last of the scoring, for
although Hogan had several oppor-
tunities, Baum took sweet revenge fol
being batted out of the box in the
first game by holding them down to the
scantiest kind of hitting. When the
crowd took a last lingering gaze at the
sorrowful score board all they saw Evas
