The Bourbon news. [volume] (Paris, Ky.) 1895-19??, 1910-09-23

nings at White Park Tuesday after
noon, and when the dusk Of closing day
had settled on the scene of the contes
that lasted for three hours, neither had
been able to count in the sixteen ses-
siOns and the game was called on ac-
count of darkness.
A double pill was promised on the
closing day and two seven inning
games had been announced but the
length of the one contest proved
enough to satisfy the crowd and play :
ers, and when the rays of Old Sol be-
gan to fade in the West Umpire Feye
relieved the suspense.
The contest was of more than usual
interest owing to the fact that the re-
suit would determine which club should
have the best of the seasons series.
This served to nerve the men of both
teams to put up the best they had. AS
the long drawn out contest ended with
out deciding run the clubs stand with
lost on the series
The game was one of the prettieSt
pitchers battles ever witnessed on the
local grounds, Williams working for
Paris and Kline for the Colts. Both
were given strong support throughout
and errors on both sides we've reduced
to the minimum
Williams had shade the best of the
argument, one hit less being made off
of his delivery and passed only three
men to his opOnent's five. Kline had
the best of the strlkeouts which num-
hered twelve to Williams ten. Both
slab artists were on their mettle and
were very effective at critical stages.
A crowd Of fully eight hundred wit
messed the contest, which was exciting
from the opening inning, and which
will go on record as the longest Of the
season in the Blue Grass League.
