Bisbee daily review., 1910-04-05


 weren't in 1t for a minute and a Kan sas cyclone might just as well do the back up. Duffy" act as to try and compare with Warren on a windy day and such day as Sunday was. in par ticular.
 Also on the aforesaid Sunday they might just about as well have tried to play ping-pong on the north pole as to indulge in the great American game of baseball. Nevertheless they tried it. Baseball. I mean.
 Of all the weird. uncanny mockeries of nine awful. awful rounds of what was an attempt to demonstrate the batting and fielding qualities of the Muckers Of 1910 Sundays exhibition took the plum Of anything ever dished up on a diamond The batters were just as liable to hit at rocks for balls as to connect with the real thing. There were so many of them blowing around that the fielders didn't know whether they were catching flies. fouls or stones ha,f the time. They didn't care. much. either. It didn't make any difference. anyhow.
 Anyone weighing 115 pounds or less had no business going to the ball game Those who made the trip were blown out of the grandstand in the third inning, while many heavy weights. even, had their headgear waited skyward and their coats blown of They beat it for home and fire side at the same time the feather weights did.
 About 400 people braved the e'e- ments and were on hand when Um- pire Billy Graham called the session to order. Less than a hundred were there at the finish. Some of the play CTS wanted 10 quit in the third inning They organized a general strike in the fifth, but Orrie sad go through with it. This they agreed to proyid. ing Pat Mccullough would loan them his gang Of street sweepers after the thing was over to dig out the acres and acres of dust and dirt that gath. cred upon their persons. At that the sweepsrs missed about an acre. which now repOses in the back yard of the Marx rooming house at Lowell. ready 10 be carted back when the owners identify the property.
 The alleged game itself furnished more laughs per minute than any first class musical comedy that has visited Bisbee in twenty years. Take twenty tallies, add about as many hits. 40 stolen bases and a dozen wild pitches or passed balls, it don't matter which. and you have the final result. No use counting errors. The players weren't responsible All of these should be chalked down to Mir Wind. likewise Mir Sand. These gents played the whole game
 Talk about funny plays. we'll take up the Copper Queen s-de of the ar gument first because their doing was confined to one inning. when they tai lied two. That happened in the fifth round. Pits had let them down in or der previously the only one to get a clean bingie being Roy McAllister, who performed in right field Roy singled to center in the second. stcIe second and went to third On a passed ball, but the next man walked and was thrown out to second on a pretty peg by orr.e
 Then Mac faced Pittes for a sec ond time With the aid of Mir. Blun. dering Breeze out in left garden he got a three-base hit. A base on balls and another one-base affair filled the sacks. Then Jesse Orendorff. just tc make the game interesting. created a iitt'e hurly-burly stunt that was re. sDonsible for a pair of Queens count ing in the divvy of the pot. It was a peg to second which the wind caught instead of Jimmy Kerwin and Ora ham, both of whom were after the throw in an endeavor to retire al least one member of the trio lowering about the sacks. It went to center field and before 'Dal' dug the sphere out of sandspout the aforementioned | pair had collected the money at the tally-station
 Maybe Orrie meant the throw to go wild He wanted. probably to encour age the Queens into dipping into the ginger-jar, inasmuch as Bisbee had thirteen runs at the time and didn't . stand in much danger of losing the game. Anyway. it had to be counted as an error. the only one made by the regulars during the game. There was old B.shee and the good bunch o
