 | The Barons took the measure of the powerful Pole yesterday afternoon, al though it required eleven innings to turn the trick.
 The score was to 2
 | The second game resulted in a score of 2-9 at the end of the eighth inning. It was dark at that time
 The opening bout was a sensational pitching duel between Covaleski and Trough. Both men did excellent work and honors were even.
 The second game found Fleharty and Carmichael face to face
 The Barons threw away numerous op- situation was pleasant enough with their lead of two runs in the eighth. But in that inning a little storm burst and all was lost. Lejeune was caught flat-footed between third and second but when Fle- harty failed to throw the ball, he walked over to third. Then Phelan made a grue- some error. Fleharty then lost control and Nebbinger, who had been pie for eighteen innings, found the nose of one which Fleharty grooved, and sent it to deep left Two runs scored and Neb- binger was out on a close decision at the plate.
 Fleharty. however, was the hero of the afternoon.
 He saved the first game beyond all doubt, and broke the heart of the Pole
 It happened in this way:
 Until the tenth, the score was II. In that round. the Lookouts put one run over, and apparently won the game. In the Barons half of the tenth, after Yantz had popped out to Lister, Elliott doubled to right. Manager Molesworth rushed in Fleharty to hit for Trough. He deliver ed an awful jolt to Lejeune and Elliott scored the tying run.
 The Barons won the game in the eleventh. Phelan worried a pass out of Covaleski, and went to second when Me- Gilvray ripped a clean cut to left Barr then shot one through the diamond to center, and Phelsn registered.
 It is nothing derogatory to the Barons to state that Chattanooga should have won the game in the tenth inning North ern opened with, double and Sentelle sacrificed him to third. Murch was walked. Moran hit to Marcan, on whose wild peg to the plate-the chance was exceptionally easy = Northern scored With Murch on second and Moran on first, Lejeune hit one over Barr's head to the fence. At the crack of the bat, Murch started home. Then he hesitated and ran back to second. Then he saw the ball hit the fence and ambled to third. Barr returned the ball to Yantz and it got away again. But Muroh made no effort to register.
 And that is not all.
 Lister followed with line drive to Barr which was caught. Murch made no effort to score although Barr returned the ball to McGilvray and not to the plate.
 Chattanooga scored first in the second. Moran opened with a hit to center, and finding Yantz mapping, stole second and went to third on an error. Lejeune's hit to CcHtcI SCOic cQ HILL lIc DdTOuS LleQ the score in the third. Trough struck out. but Marcan beat out hit to second, and pulled off the delayed steal of second. Johnson then clipped off a doubled to right-center, and Marcan counted.
 In the second game Fleharty went at a remarkable rate for seven innings His control was fine his speed was fine and his curve was fine. Until the coming of the eighth. he held the Lookouts in the palm of his hand and was choking them to death. s
 And in the meantime the Barons were ripping off double after double on Car michael. They were so joyful over hav- ing won the first game and so confident that Fleharty was strong enough to win the second, that they were not careful. They tossed away numerous chances and apparently cared little. They felt satis- fled with a lead.
 And in the eighth the score was tied. A double by Lejeune started the trouble. Lister famed, and everything was look ing well when Yantz, slipping to second, caught Lejeune fifteen feet off the bag. The runner gave up, but Fleharty threw the ball across the plate too late for Elliott to relay to third. Higgins then hit to Phelan and on an easy chance, he threw wild to McGilvray. On Nebbinger, Fleharty lost control and rather than run the risk of walking him, he grooved him. The youpgster who had looked pitiable during the entire afternoon hit to deep left. On fair day, he would have cir cled the bases. As 1t was he was killed at the plate on close decision.
 Elliott's double, Flehartys Sacrifice and a hit by Johnson scored the first Baron run in the third inning. A double by F1e- harty, Marcan's sacrifice and Phelans hit scored the second in the sixth. Mcbride opened the second inning with double
