It's another tale of defeat which
must be chronicleG this glorious morn
ing The old gray FOX from the hills
OF Virginia not only exhibited his
molars. but he snapped his jaws in
very glee as the game went 10 Lynch
burg by the score of to 2 in the
Broad street affair of yesterday.
Down where the weeping willows
bend their heads and the stream chant
eth It's lifting strain TO the signing of
the breezes, one may md solace for
the defeat. but in the city. where the
imndding thrcng pursues its way, the
floss of the game will always be noted
Jas one tossed to the heavens. The
Zone Lynchburg fan was again pres
.ent, and he laughed in very glee as
ths crestfallen Colts failed 10 take ad-
vantage OF opportunity after oppor-
ftunity offered to score.
Poor Base Running.
1t was one OF those days when know
nothinEism reigned supreme. for. with
men on bases and the heaviest swat
tors on the team up. dunderheadednes $
allowed men to be caught on the bag
10y long margins, spelling the chance
40 make the circuit. Why 1t was so
is ineNpllcable, but that it was so
everybody at the park can testify.
EeyeLe pitched a good game of bail
and rightfully but two runs should
have counted for the Shoemakers.
The scoring by the visitors began In
the second, when Stocksdale coaxed
the only pass which Revene gave
krebs then drove into the corner Of
centre for three sacks. scoring Stocks
dale zannelli was an easy out. and
Revelle actually struck out Phelan.
hut Cowan missed the third strike and
krebs scored, Two runs came across,
and but one should have been chalked
up
The run in the third should never
have gone across. Woolums and Nor
rison We're both easy outs. and McDon-
nell was or should have hsen. lust
as easy He bounced one toward Mar
TIN, who fielded the ball all right. bn;
let it get out of mis- glove. so mat Ne
was safe Pilferng second was his
NEXT performance. and he scored when
StScksdale hit over third. MATHS was
horribly slow in fielding the hit and
worse on the throw-in. 1t was n short
MT and Mcdonnell. who is not overly
fast on his pins. could have been held
on tAird by fast work. He should have
been out. but as he wasn't. the nex,
best should have been done.
Only Legitimate Score.
me last run for Lynchburg was
legitimate. Woolums hit for three
to right-centre, and scored on MORT
sons b!ngle. So. from a study of the
apoNe II is clearly evident that the
two which the Colts got were Justly
entitled 10 bring at least a tic
But the story is now only half told.
Three hits were made in the second,
hut only one run counted Wallace
led off with single. Maths did the
same. and Baker beat out his tan to
Mcdonnell. Cowan scored wallace,
though he forced Maths In doing II.
and Revelle was out to Woolums. The
second tally came In the fourth and
resulted from Martins hit and Cowan's
double c4wan was later caught of
Of second
In the NTH the game should have
been c!nched. Revelle was on from a
hit, Dobson sacrificed and Priest hit
putting Dulch on. third Priest stole
and then. Phe an 'inade short throw
10 Zannelli. and Dutch started home
lie was caught. and the hopes were
gone Wallace was up, aud had he
remained on third the chances are thar
he would have scored.
Lack OF BnII Sense
While Il is true that some Of the dc
cisions were close, the game was no,
lost through the umpire so much as
through failure to use the baseball
sense of which the Colts are capable
> Take that same NTH With one man
down and McCabe up. Priest on FIRST
and Revelle on third instead of Priest
