Why should we worry baseball was

curtain had been rung down and tho
game was over.
Really the A. Az and the A.. n. 4
played like lot Of sandlotters and Il
was no more like BAN game than POI
is like bowl Of ite cream.
Just what eaused the boys TO slip
up in their playing and pun OF the
farce comedy they. did IS unknown.
Perhaps q continual kicking up Of the
Lava on the Trail Saturday evening
caused a bit Of tho dust to get into
their eyes, or perhaps a longing FOR
the sleet and the snow Of the dear old
Preside over the vide Pacific Coasi
brought on a feeling Of don I eareness.
Any way you look st it, Il was ban
game far below the mark Of what the
A, As and A. Ms have been shoot.
ing at the fans the last ten days or 70.
In the game Of the day before, the
A. Ma plastcred the sphere 20 All
corners Of the lot and scored thifteen
runs on fourteen hits. Yesterday the
A. A. 8 did all the hittiRg and scored
nine runs on eleven hits
Many Long hits

the A. Ms played baseball in tho
Geld and not, been so generous in al
lowing the A. AS to stretch tho.,,
hits. none OF them would have figured
in the score.
Big JEFF Tesreau OF the McGrawites
was the HEAVIER for one side and D.
Leslie Bush was on the hill for the
other side. Big JET depended on his
delders and his fielders threw him
down, for Murphy's homer, and the
triples Of Moriarity, Bush and Chap.
man should have been fieided and the
batters held at FIRST base at the worst.
Instead Vaughn, Dolan and Carey
joined in chasing the ball at snailfs
pace and one could not blame the
runners for stretching the swats into
what they could get. a
