Mack Allison and Jack Powell were
the pair who slipped the Nationals

both of these pitchers were sent against
Griff's boys to-day. Allison gave US a

SECOND GAME NOTES.

The Browns tried out a new first sack
er named Miller from the Lowell Club
of the New England League. Miller had
a chance to but into the hall of fame in
the very first inning when second and
third were loaded and two gone, but he
swung at a high third strike and it was
all over.
It was ludricrous to see big, fat Jack
Powell try to field Shanks' hunt in the
Nationals second. Powell simply could
not bend down in time to pick up the
ball.
Danny Moeller made a nice catch of
Hogan's line drive in the fourth.
Cashion hit the right field fence for a
double in the Nationals fifth, but neither
Moeller nor Foster could score him.
When Powell was getting bumped all
over the yard in the sixth, one fan In
the stands yelled, Throw out the life
line"
Laporte tried to get out Of the way of
wild pitch in the seventh, the ball
bounced of Franks bat and landed in
Pratt's hands.
Foster made a swell stop and peg of
Shotten's hard smash in the seventh.
The ball was tagged for a triple, as
Shotten is a real speed merchant on the
sacks.
williams not only singled in the Ma
tionals' sixth, but followed this up with
a steal of second.
Shanks robbed Austin of a hit in the
eighth by a dandy running catch.
