 WITHOUT MERCY Dozen Hits Net Visitors Six Runs and Barons Are
 Shut Out
CARMICHAEL SHOWED
 ALL SORTS OF FORM
Only One Time Did BarOns Get Two Hits in Same Inning-ErrOrs By His Team Mates Helped
 Beat McTigue

The Bisons had things all their own way yesterday afternoon. The Barons were unable to hit MT. Carmichael, the Buffalo pitcher, when hits were needed, consequently they could not win. At the same. time the local players made errors while the visitors played a perfect field ing game and in the outcome the Barons received a nice coat of whitewash. Score to 0.
 Billie Smiths players put up another nice exhibition. They hit when hits counted and they hit hard. 'Rube' Me Tigue, who has pitched such fine ball during the exhibition games, was tramp led all over by the Bisons, the visitors piling up total of P hits. Four of these came in succession in the eighth inning. when four Buffalo players trotted across the plate. The youngster probably never had such time In his life. Bauer relieved him after the eighth and in the one inning pitched the Bisons had mighty little luck with Lou's curves
 However, the score against McTigue and the Baron team would not have been as large if the locals had played bet ter fielding game. Three errors are charged against the Barons and they were all of the fatal kind
 The game rocked along nicely until the fifth inning, when two opportune hits on the part of the Bisons netted the visitors two runs, Johnson, first up, hit a pop fly to short and was retired. Wood fol- lowed and was walked. McAllister hit high foul to third base territory and went out. Carmichael then waded into slow one and hit safely to left field Wood going to second. Both men advanced on Elliotts error. Henline then hit a hot grounder between third and short, which Emery barely managed to get his hands on. The ball was too fast for him and he could not hold it. Wood and Car michael scored on the play Henline was awarded an infield hit. Williams flew out to center field.
 The Bisons scored again in the seventh inning. Wood went to first on Newton's error ard advanced to second on a passed ball. McAlister sacrificed to the pitcher and went out at first, Wood failing to advance. However, Carmichael followed with a hit to left, his third bingle, and Wood scored Henline hit to short and forced Carmichael out at second. Will Hams was given pass to first but both he and Henline were left on base when White flew out to short

 In the eighth inning McTigue joined the Baronial Twirlers Aero club and dur ing his sojourn among the clouds the Bisons pushed three men across the rub Der The first four men up hit safely. Brain led off with a single to left and Starr followed suit, Brain going to third. Johnson hit safe one to right field and both Brain and Starr scored. Johnson went to third when the ball was thrown to the plate to catch Starr, and the Bison first baseman tailed when Wood hit safe ly to center. McAllister advanced Wood to second with a sacrifice, but Wood was caught at third when Carmichael hit an easy one to the pitcher. Henline struck out.
 For the first three innings the BaEons were moved down in one-two-three order. In the fourth inning they had an excel lent chance to score. Marcan and Moles- worth the first two men up, both hit safely to right field. Gygli fouled out to the catcher. McGilvray then hit a grounder to short and Marcan was caught on a chase between third and home. He was retired, McGilvray going to first on the fielder's choice. Newton flew out to center field. This was the best chance the locals had to score, and thereafter MT. Carmichael held the game in the palm of his hand.
 Carmichael's Fine Work
 Carmichael played brilliant game. Out of four times at bat he got three hits, the safe one in the third in- ming being a clean three-bagger. He drove the ball to deep right-centerfield fence He scored the run for the Bisons and was mainly responsible for the sh ut -out given the Barons. He yielded only six hits, and, with the exception of the fourth the Barons did not hit safely twice in the same inning. He struck out six Baron swatsmen. Only nine men faced him in the first three innings.
 White covered lots of territory in the gardens and handled everything
