Last Sundays Game
While the game ut Lewiston Sun
day resulted in the defeat Of Grange
vile by a score Of 3 to 5, it was good
evidence of the fastness Of the Grange
vile bunch and it is said by Lewis
ton people that had the umpire been
reasonably fair in his decision there
would have been a different story.
1t is alleged in the first half Of the
second, Lewiston had man on first
end second and two out sand the batter
made an infield hit, forcing the man
from first to second and the man from
second on to third. The Grange
vile player threw the ball to the third
baseman, thus making the third Out
but the Lewiston umpire took or
cognizance of the rules of the game
and declared he was not out because
the third baseman had not touched
him. In speaking of the game til,
Lewiston paper says:
Grangeville could do nothing yes
terday with "Slats" Taylor, the tall
twirler Of the Lewiston aggregation
while in the first three innings tn,
locals hit Carr so hard it looked lik,
a runaway for period. However
after the third inning, the visitor
settled down-Carr got his balance
and the play was full of interest. Th
score resulted 5 to 3. The thre
Grangeville runs were secured in tn
fifth and sixth, due to series of will
throws that allowed the men to score
in merry-go-round fashion, as Mar
ager Johnnie Wilkes, of the visitors
{ put it.
There was big crowd out to sc
the game, and the day was an ide,
one. A number of Grangeville PEE
pie accompanied their team here, an
when the visitors showed at periot
some class, the support given the
was enthusiastic.
