pended upon the outcome of yesterdays
engagement. and maybe his job did
depend upon 1t. But be that as 1t may,
drifting into tho unusual vernacular,
he sure pitched some ball game. They
nssailed him safely for complete
total of two singles during the nine
boxes and for the first i've frames only
fifteen of tho visitors faced his de-
livery. They were up and out in or
der during this period. Young Dfr.
Ramcy had his smoke ball, his knuckle
ball. his curves and his fast ones all
breaking just whcrc no wanted them
to break, and he was aided and allotted
liz causing tho downfall OF Manager
Tannchilfs horde by somo very classy
folding. In which the infield worked 10
such good advantage that they mado
hard chances look so easy thnt your
fan forgot TO applaud on several &C.
caSions.
COLTS LOSE SEVERAL.
POSSIBLE T.SILIES
Richmond spilled some runs along
the paths. but 1t Is cXcusable now that
tho game IS over. Dave Bunting IS
responsible for ono run having been
cast adrift. IL occurred In tho eighth
inning, when three successive safe
blows failed to count even once. Lefty
Snyder brcczcd one over second. but
was forced by Dolly Gray. Dave came
through with his third safety. the other
Two being good for extra bases. and
Dolly moved up one notch on the clout
ShleA hit snort into left field, and D vo
stuck his head In the sand and start
rd travelling. There isn't much excuse
as the play was right In front OF him,
anc had no kept his head up, MS 10
should have done with slow man
on third. he would never have got into
trouble. AS IT was, Dolly was forced
off third and run down easily. making
the second out. Berger hit the ball IN
awful knock and rodo 1T into deep
right but tho leather was high enough
III the air Tor Alexander to he camp

II was sheer waste OF offensive
strength, but these things are part OF
the gamc--at least we must assume
That they arc. AS q matter of fact IT
took three safe blows to score the ini-
t!al run of the Colts and the run that
alone should have counted II was
not until tho fourth inning that either
team showed any Familiarity with tho
highways. Snyder started by heating
his roller to Baxter. but was forced
By Gray, Dolly getting Il life on tho
! choice. Dave bunting came through
with his usual double. placing Dolly
on third I9alcy scored the run with
nco wallop just over Tannchilps
mead, with two on Berger. flew 10 left
and Woerth forced Raley at second
ending the frame.
RANIEY'S GIFT LIFE
PROVES RATHER COSTLY
Tho visitors counted when Ramey
walked Alexander In the seventh and
he went TO third. on Cooks hit to
right field y double steal started
when Woerth threw to second to stop
Cook, who started down on tho first
ball over The throw TO the bag was
q trifc wide. causing Newton to re-
gain his balance before returning tho
peg which gave Alexander n chance
TO slide under Woerth at the plate
1t was just about tho best ball game
that has been staged here this season,
the Kind OF bali game that keeps the
fans a-tingle every minute. Everybody
was on the anxious bench, waiting for
something TO turn up. Rut Ramcy
was adamant. lie was IN no yielding
humor And so was McCleary, for
that matter. Things broke against
him and he lost; but If Jesse Tame
hll can keep up that brand OF pitch
