FINE BASEBALL
GAMES SATURDAY

1t was a sailor crowd at the Kamoi-
liili baseball park Saturday afternoon
to witness the games between local
teams and nine of the Pacific fleet,
comparatively few town people being
present. Barney JOY was umpire and
the Hawaiian band supplied the rag
time. The grounds were in fine shape
and the weather was all that could be
desired. Special cars were run TO
accommodate the extra crowds from
the waterfront, military posts and the
city
The first game was between the
Tennessee and Fort Shafter teams
Both mines showed lack Of practice

THE BIG GAME.

The game between the National
Guard and a picked nine Of the Pa
cific fleet was the big event of the day
It was a bangor from start to finish,
every minute being interesting. Only
one run was made, and that was due
to an error on tie part of sailor,
who muffed a ball at third base, let
ting the runner in.
The batteries of the two teams were
immense-probably the best amateur
combinations ever seen here. Will

game and the same may be said of

Saturday afternoon, and resulted in
victory for a senior man, putting that
side over the line for the champion

the score was 45 to &C. The game
was fast and furious throughout, as
most of the contests in the series have
been.
The game concluded the tournament.
Out of eleven games the seniors won
seven and lost four, and the total
score was 3S9 and 9S6 in their favor.

ONE BAD, ONE GOOD
BASEBALL GAMES

If the men who arranged the pro-
gram for the baseball parq yester-
day afternoon intended to follow the
sometimes rule of saving the best for
the last, they succeeded admirably.
The first game of baseball-Tennessee
VS.. U. S. Marines-was about as one
sided and uninteresting as could well
be put up; while the second game was
one of the most thrlllingly interesting
ever seen in Honolulu. The latter
was full of ginger from the start and
was nobodys game until the lasst halr
of the tenth inning, when Townsend
of the National Guard, muffed fine
NY, allowing a sailor to score, ana
making the total 2 to l in favor OF
the visitors
The grand stand and bleachers were
filled with people, a large per cent OF
those present being sailors from the
Pacific fleet The sailors were out to
see their team win, too, and rooted like
good fellows.
The local marines were known to be
in poor form, not having had any prac-
tice TO speak of in quite a while; but
they really played worse than had
been calculated for them. They seem
ed to get ratified and to be unable to
recover, parts of the game being a
walkfest TO rthe visitors.
When thhe National Guards and
picked fleet team came on the field
everybody Strengthened up to some real
baseball Barney Joy was again UNI
! pire The National Guards went to
bat nd for three innings not a man
scored, although the locals came neal
it several times. In the fourth inn
ing the guards got one man over the
home plate. In the fifth the guard!
retired at moment when bases were
crowded and they had fine chance o
one or more runs.
In the sixth the Guards again re
tired with their bases crowded. TIL
fleets scored one, largely on two pass
/ ed balls by Soares. This tied tn
l score-1 to 1.
: The seventh, eighth and ninth inn
< ings were without special interest, eX
cept that the game was fast and III
rious. In the three innings not ma
came anywhere near the nome plate.
In the tenth the pitcher of the flee
team seemed to be weakening, but h
had exceedingly strong field support
The guards retired with two men Of
bases, as usual. The sailors got
man on first, played him around Il
second and on high by to the field
which was muffed as stated above, thu
man ran in. The grandstand roareC
itself hoarse and the fun was all over
