GRAFTON, May 4.-The 1slp sea
son Of the West Virginia Baseball

yesterday. Preceded by a street car
parade and a band concert the two
teams faced each other and alter a
battle lasting over two hours the home
team landed the first game Of the sea-
son. Z to ..
There we're some times when the
visiting team looked dangerous but
each time Fitzwater settled down and
pitched good ball or some local player
pulled of sensational play and ruin
ed what chances they had to oYertake
the home team.
Warrington started batting rally
in the third round when they got three
straight singles but the next men prov.
ed easy outs and the base runners re-
mained where they stood. Failure to
bat Fltzwater at critical stages was
mainly the cause of the visitors de-
feat. Had they batted as timely as
did the locals they would hayeScored
many runs and the tale would have
likely been different.
Their two runs came in the seventh
when a couple of hits coupled with a
walk and couple of errors enabled
Warrington to cross the plate twice.
"a large number of Mannington root.
ers accompanied the team here and
pulled hard for their fayorltes, The
same teams play at ManningtOn to-
day.
A bright feature of the game was
the umpiring Of Puterbaugh and Vas

going in a hurry besides handling
many close plays in satisfactory.

umpiring that President Raymond is
going to hand us this season there

TEAM WON BY GOOD BASE RUM

FIELDING.

cLARKsBURG, May A cold and
disagreeable day held down the at.
tendance at the opening of the West
Virginia State League here yesterday
but there was goodly number Of fans
out to see the old rivals, Fairmont,
head off the Mogllls in the premier
contest.
The first game was not brilliant
one. In fact 1t was a very slow con-
test and the visitors had little trou-
BILE in winning. Poor fielding on the
part of the locals loosened up the con
test, which was featured by many
stolen bases on the part of the visi-
tors. Keller, Carmony, King and
Daley were very active at purlointng
and It was not altogether the fault
Of Catcher Mulvaney, of Clarksburg,
for he pegged we'll but often found
that there was no one on the bag to
receive the throws.
The visitors put up a sensational
game, both in fielding and at tho bat.
Scott and the remainder of the Fair
mont infeld worked as If they had
been playing together all season while
everybody with the exception of
George and Snyder was accredited
with safe bingle in the game. Liv-
ingood pitched q fair contest, striking
out nine men but he was touched up
very often by the visitors.
George for Fairmont, is a youngster
who gives much promise and he work
ed on the mound yesterday like vet,
eran. He was effective when the To-
Gals had men on bases and seemed to
have perfect control at all times.
King caught a fine game for the visi-
tors and it SENS that Manager Hunt
has good substitute for the veteran
Jackley who is injured. Score:
