The Washington herald., 1910-06-22
NOTES OF THE GAME.

Wild Conroy is proving the sensation OF
the present trip. He is playing Won
derful game at third and hitting like
hend. He shows more speed on the bases
than in the last three years. Washing
ton fans will hardly recognize him when
the team comes home Saturday.
Dolly Gray beat the bean brigade here
during the last series. and pitched well
enough to-day to grab the victor's end.
A double-header is booked for to-mor-
row. the frsts game starting at 1;45
o'clock. Reisling and Oberlin probably
VIII be McAleers twiriers.
An amusing incident happened in
Washington's second. Wild Conroy was
safe on a fielder's choice. and then
allowed himself TO be caught mapping.
The entire Boston team chased him up
and down the first-base patch, but he
eluded them all and scrambled back to
first in safety.
Herman Sehaefer received word to-
night that his mother in Chicago is dy-
ing. He received sympathy from all the
players. Herman would not don a uni
form to-day and his coaching was greatly
missed.
Milan showed his speed in the sixth,
when he beat out an easy grounder 10
first. The ball landed squarely in Jake
Stahrs nit. and Clyde beat him In a
dash for the bag by an eyelash.
Only one umpire Perrine. had charge
of the game as Ban Johnson allowed
silk OLoughlin TO take charge of the
Yale-Harvard battle in New Haven.
Dolly Gray led the Nationals with the
stick, connecting for two pretty singles.
One Of these was in the eighth. when
he reached second on Milan's sacrifice,
but neither Lelivelt nor Elberfeld could
bring him home.
Kid Elberfeld played in hard luck.
Wagner robbed him Of a hit by a one
handed pickup In the fourth. and In the
sixth Lord dashed way back into left
field and pulled down a drive that looked
good for a single.
The Boston scorers refused to give Bob
Unglaub a safe hit on his drive to deep
right in the seventh, which scored Nc
Bride. But, then. you know they do
things differently here in Beantown.
Charley Smith joyously greeted his for
mer mates before the game. He is doing
very little these days except looking
wise and pitching 10 the batters in prac-
tice. Charley says his arm is a trifie
lame.
Scout Mike Kahoe dropped into the
hotel this afternoon for brief chat with
McAleer Nike has his eye on several
| likely looking New England League
youngsters.
Wagner gets credit for hit In the
fourth. HIS grounder struck pebble JUS
before reaching Elberfeld and bounded
over the Kids" head.
With Gray on first IN the third inning
Milan drove a liner straight into Collin:
hands, with the result that Dolly wa;
doubled up az first and a promising star
for runs nipped in the bud
The Nationals are not discouraged h,
tO-day's defeat. and are determined I,
get revenge tomorrow A little bette
hitting will win some games on this trip
and IL IS time a few OF the men Shove,
signs of more strength in this department
| Gessler's injury is but a slight one
| and ne thinks he will be able TO get int
the games all right tomorrow.
A more perfect day for baseball coul'
not have been ordered. Everybody in tn
grand stand and bleachers sat with coat
/ in their laps and welded palm leaf fans
The Nationals witnessed the Papke
Jack CTwin) Sullivan fight at the Armor.
Athletic Club tonight.
