 -Limericks of Larry LeJeune.
 The Lookouts went the Barons one bet ter yesterday afternoon at Redwood and took the last game of the series by the score of to 1, although Trough gave up but two hits. A base on balls followed by a terrific swat by Larry LeJeune that disappeared over the right field fence despite the gaping mouth of Yantz, gave the Lookouts their two runs and the game.
 The defeat of the Barons is due en- tirely to their inability to hit Forrest More when hits meant runs. In practi- cally every inning the Barons got run ner as far as second but More frightened like a drum and the necessary bingle was not forthcoming. More was in trou- ble during the entire game but escaped by his own efforts entirely.
 The Barons ran up total of seven hits off More, one of them a two-sacker, but twas the same old story every in- ming. When hit was needed to tie the score the hit was not forthcoming.
 The Barons pushed one across in the first inning when Yantz hit safely to right field and went to third on Phelan's single to the same territory. He scored on McBrde's sacrifice fly to deep center field.
 Lejeune Hits Homer
 The Lookouts won the game in tho seventh inning when Mil drew a pass after Moran had gone out to Johnston. Lister flew out to the same place but LeJeune lifted the pellet high over the rightfield fence to the right of the score board. Both runners tailed.
 LeJeune's hit was one of the longest seen at Redwood. The ball cleared the fence with two feet to spare and accord ing to latest advices is still rolling. That ended the scoring for the Lookouts as wells as the Barons.
 Many, many beautiful opportunities to score were lost. A few of them were for two bags in the second but went out trying to stretch it into triple. In the third inning Trough was safe on More S wild throw of his bunt and took second when the ball went through Lister. Mar can was struck in the ribs by one of More's blenders; Yantz bunted to the pitcher and More threw Trough out at tempting to go to third on the last ball was caught by Higgins.
 In the fourth. with one down, Mo Gilvray walked and promptly pilfered. Johnston flew out to Northern, Elliott walked but Ellam went out, Mill to Lister.
 Baronial Opportunity
 There was nothing doing in the fifth and sixth innings. but the hopes of the fans were raised high in the seventh, only to be dashed to the ground with a dull thud that could be heard plainly all over the grandstand With one down Elliott singled, Ellam walked, Trough singled through Nil, Marcan hit feebly to More, who threw Elliott out at the plate and Higgins doubled Marcan at first.
 In the eighth Mcbride and McGilvray singled, but again Johnston was un- able to lay onto More's curves. The Barons went to work In earnest in the ninth inning. Elliott. first up. flew out to right; Ellam walked. Molesworth, batting for Trough, went out to Le- Jeune. Marcan drew a pass and the fans were yelling for a single, but YantZ grounded out to Lister.
 The game was very pretty in spite of a heavy field and intermittent rain. Those who argued that Trough was out of form should have seen him per form yesterday afternoon. He not only pitched great ball but got hit and knocked down a liner off the bat of Moran that looked good for hit. With the exception of the pitching of Trough and More the game was featureless.
