TWO MORE FOR PIRATES
SUPERBAS LOSE TWICE.
Pittsbwg Team Increases Lead
at Erpense of Brooklyn.

There were bargain day offerings at Washington
Park yesterday afternoon. where the Superbas and
the Pittsburg Pirates engaged IN double set-to-
The bargains on hand were given to the buccaneer-
ing Pittsburg crew. and twenty thousand
fans who jammed the stands and bleachers
full Pittsburg's share amounted TO the long end
OF the score in both games. the first by TO
and the second BY 3 TO 0. These triiing additions
the Pittsburg won column make up for the
setbacks that the Superbas inflicted on the coming
champions their last trip into the West. At
any rate. the Pirates trudged Off the field we'll sat-
ished with a days work which enabled them 10
gain slightly the aspiring players from Chicago.
The Superbas. whose playing since their return
home has not been OF particularly excellent quail
ity put forth the best there was in them 70 send
their thousands OF supporters home In happy
mood. But BrOoklyns best had to be second TO
Pitts5urgs best in both contests The Pirates were
the first 70 sore IN the opening contest and they
kept scoring until they had piled up seven runs
Then OF those belated Brooklyn rallies hustled
across the field. but the best II could do az the
ninth hour was 10 score three runs In a cluster
not quite enough TO win the game. The second con-
test hard fought affair and Pittsburg's three
runs were squeezed only after the hardest kind
OF work.
Camnltz the man who spelled defeat for the
Brooklynites in the opening session. The Pitts
burg twirler held the Superbas at his mercy. while
his team mates pounded the unfortunate Bell at
frequent Intervals. Only IN the ninth inning when
the game was safe. Camnitz weakened trthe
and the home team scored three runs. Thirteen
hits were all the Pirates could garner or the
Brooklyn pitcher and these pretty well
punched. so that there resulted a fair proportion
of runs.
Until the fourth inning both Bell and Camnitz
went along as smoothly II they were on an
oiled track Then Belis foot slipped and Miller
scratched a hit through third base Abstein con-
descendinsly smashed out a two-bagEer and on
