Rally Nets Two Runs.
Richardson, Of seven straight vic.
tories fame. broke the Pathhnders' lone
winning streak Wednesday. when the
Ansons COPIED the second game Of the
Burlington series, 5 to 2. While Rich
ardson was the chief impeachment ia
further progress Of the leaders. by
reason Of a brilliantly pitched game OF
ball. his mates made his task pleasant
and smooth one by getting to Bunk,
the opposing HEAVIER. for seven runs in
the third inning and thus determining
| the issue before the combat had fairly
started.
After that one grand, glorious round
there was but single chance that the
Pathfinders would overcome the lead
and win, and that was that Richardson
would suffer sunstroke.
Bunk Is Punk.
Seven hits for nine bases, two passes,
and two errors, thrown together in the
one inning to make glad holiday for
the home fans, is the story of the game
in brief Every member Of the home
team had a hand in the obsequiaI ser
vices for the lamented Bunk. Twelve
batters faced him in that awful period,
and seven of that number raced around
the circuit. while the merciless mob in
the stands. with thumbs turned down,
cheered the favored gladiators as they
mangled their opponents,
1t was grand and welcosle revenge
for the bitter eleventh-inning defeat of
the day before, and it tended to vindi-
cate the prophets who had declared that
the chesty outfit from down state was
no better than some other teams of the
Central association.
Pathfindsrs Good Finishers. y
1t must be said to the credit Of the
Pathf1nders that they are no cutters,
and they reserve their best for the final
stand. AS on the occasion Of the Arson
defeat on Tuesday, they came back like
a raging lion in the final innings, after
they had been made to look like thirty
pesos in Mexican copper. and counted
two runs.
It was not until the sixth inning that
the Roanites found Richardson for a
safe one. Meinert hitting for two bases
in that period, after two men had been
retired. In the seventh another hit,
grouped with an error and the squeeze
play. sent Burlington's first run across.
To the ninth inning they were helds to
they hammered out three hits, resulting
in an added run.
Richardson had the enemy hitting at
his mates and fourteen times the bat
ters were thrown out at first. Taken
altogether Richards had busy day for
an invalid. The Ansons' fielding, barring
one miscue, was gilt-edged, the infield-'
ers playing an especially good game. In
the eighth Harris came in for round
of applause for his brilliant running
catch Of Meinert,s long drive.
ssvsn Hits and Seven Runs.
Bunk got away handily in the first
two innings, but it was apparent from
the way the home crew went after
him that he was due for battle. In
the third he slipped when he passed
Hammerschmidt but he recovered and
set Richardson down on strikes. Har-5
ris and Lindberg conspired to scuttle
the old hulk, however, and each
singled in turn. Lindberg's blow sent
Hammerschmidt to third, and the local
backstop beat for home on the throw
in. The throw had the runner beaten,
but Rolleg dropped the ball, Hammer
schmidt scoring. Martini made an eff
fort to complete the work by shooting
a two-bagger tipping straight thru to
deep center, Harris and Lindberg hot
footing it to the plate. Martini was
run down between second and third in
attempting to advance on Ryan's
grounder to Lunte. Ryan, however,
proceeded to steal second and was
safe when Lunte dropped the throw.
Bunk made a gift Of passage to
Richards, and then Brock made him
self solid with the crowd by dumping
q single over third to score Ryan.
Still the Ansons were not satisfied, and
Forth boosted his wanning average by
depositing a drive good for two bases
in center field, Richards and Brock
adding two more to the total results
on his blow Hammerschmidt, up for
second time, tore a single thru the
box, and Richardson followed with a
duplicate. Harris terminated the do
ings by lifting a high foul to Rolleg.
Harris Scores Another Run.
In the sixth Harris and Lindberg
united in sending another counter over
the pathways. The first mentioned
smashed q two-base drive to right, and
scored when Lindberg poked a single
thru short. With that the home gang
rested their offensive efforts for the
day.
Every man in the line-up secured at
least one safe hit, and the majority
Of the blows were Of the good, healthy
variety which come under the class Of
line drives. Several were shot directly
thru the box, over second.
Pathfinders Show Gameness.
But Roan's bunch never quit. Har- \
mon scored in the seventh, singing,
advancing when Lindberg let Rolleg's
drive thru him, and scoring on
squeeze, in which Rolleg also particle
pated.
In the ninth Singleton led of with
q bingle. advanced on Harmon's elusive
grounder, and scored on hit by Bold.
Harris great running catch pre-
vented the visitors from starting some
thing in the eighth. The Pathfnders
came in for share Of the applause,
Bold making a beautiful catch sof
foul from Brooks bat in the seventh.
