lis Dryers at the very start New Ulm
managed to bag the second game of the
series and sent the Twin City Team home
without victory. At the end Of the
eight and a half innings the score was S
to 4 in the Athletics favor. Conway
was on the rubber for the home team and,
Notwithstanding the fact that he had
pitched hard game the day before, he
had the Minneapolis batters wellin hand
shutting them out until the last two in
nings. Then he let down a trifle and
allowed couple of runs, because the
Athletics had safe lead.
The Athletics secured seven hits off
Kruger's delivery, not very large num-
Der to be sure, but they managed to
bunch them when hits meant runs. Con-
way allowed the Dryers only one hit
until the eighth inning and then handed
them three more. Pat helped things
along by tanning ten of the invaders while
Kruger could only bench six of the locals
by the breezing method.
The fielding of the Athletics was ex-
ceptionally clever. Friedl, who took
"Hanna's' place at short accepted seven
chances without a slip. Pfeiffer drew
considerable applause when he galloped
to the brink of the ravine in right and
pulled down a long foul fly. Burk and
C. Williams also gathered in some hard
chances while Hodgins backed up Con-
way in fine style behind the plate.
Byers was the shining light in the field
ing for the visitors. He pulled down
three flies and doubled Lindemann at
third when Bill tried to advance after the
catch. Conlin covered the shortfeld for
the Dryers in good style, grabbing a
couple Of hard line drives.
Conlin, first up for the Minneapolis
Dryers, drew walk and went to third
on Byers double to right after Lynch
flew out to Fried. Pat then retired
Wagner on strikes and Hodgins held onto
Paulson's foul.
Skinny" Cordes duplicated his stunt
of the previous day by opening the Ath-
letic's half with a single to right. Friedl
beat out his bunt andC. Williams dumpd
one for sacrifice, advancing the runners
to second and third. Pfeiffer bounced
a hit off Paulson's shins, scoring Cordes.
On an attempted double steal Friedl
scored but Pfeiffer was run down between
first and second. Dahms drew pass
but Hodgins was out, Conlin to Wagner.
Jensen was passed in the second with
two down but Kruger whitfield. Linde-
mann opened the Athletics second with
walk and scurried to second on passed
ball. Burk fouled out to O'Donnell and
Conway hoisted a fly to right. Linde-
mann tried to make third after the catch
but a perfect peg by Byers nailed him.
Nobody on either side reached first
until the fifth when Jevne strolled on
four wide ones. Jensen and Kruger
struck out and Conlin forced Jevne at
second, Friedl doing the wrok unas-
sisted.
The Athletics began swinging their
warclubs again in the seventh and
another marker was slipped across the
platter. After Pfeiffer had been retired
Dahms singled sharply to center and
went to third when Hodgins dropped a
hit in right, Hodgins going to second on
the throw to third. Lindemann's fly to
left was too short for Dahms to score on
but Burk came thru with a hit to third,
scoring Dahms. Conway's fly was
gathered in by Conlin.
With two gone in the eighth Conlin
picked a double to left and continued to
third when Dahms threw wide to second.
Lynch's single passed short, scoring
Conlin. Byers whaled long foul to
right and Pfeiffer made circus catch,
blowing up the sod with his ear as soon as
he had pinched the spehre.
| The Athletics came right back with a
pair of scores in their half of the eighth.
Cordes again started it by getting single
and was sacrificed to second by Friedl.
Cordes took third on a wild pitch and c..
Williams was passed. On an attempted
double steal Cordes scored and Chick,
arrived safely at second when Wagner
hit Paulson in the back with the ball.
Pfeiffer fouled out to O 'Donnell but

In the first Of the ninth the Dryers
pushed over another marker but it
awaited them nothing as Conway prompt
y frightened up and retired the side.
Wagner, first up, got one to his liking and
