 SPHERE YESTERDAY Free Hitting Game Excuse for Eighty Infields - Huelsman' Gets His Reg ular Daily Grist of Hot Slams in Game.

While sympathizing hugely with an unfortunate club of ball players, yes terday's fan crowd overlooked some thing-a regular pitcher. Names JOr dan. and he played in the gray unie of Albuquerque. That is a good enough way to start a ball-chronicle that pre- sents a number of difficulties in it's ex- cution- The outstanding fact of yes terdas's contest, however. was that it resulted in the very first defeat Phoe nix had undergone, under the eyes of the home crowd
 Not to accuse Jordan of having a whole hlacksmith's shop full of horse shoes hung around his neck, but to give hin full credit for winning his game against the determined hitting of the Phoenicians, shall be the chief purpose of this. and if they will shove those ads out of the lower part of the column and provide a little breathing space. the words shall flow forth.
 Snappy baseball has it's disadvantag- -es occasionally. and one of the occas- sions was yesterday, when too much pep gave Herb Hester another prob lem to ponder on. George Reed, hav- ing divested himself of the rubber re- ducinE coat. and -donned flannel, sat himself down in the offing and directed as nice an attack as any pitcher-red headed or otherwise-ever had to stand. Toner met it manfully. but the breaks were against him. and as NJ. Dunbar remarked. no pitcher in the world could have won such a game as that. Getting down to facts
 Albuquerque started the attack in the usual brusque manner by lamming M T a double. which. coupled with a boot bv Bowling netted a brace of runs in the first inning. The sympathetic score boy set it up as one, but no mat ter
 Dema gEio's walk and HeSter's Tex as-leaguer over short and Dow1ing's double tied the score in the Phoenix half of the inning It was odd about Hesters hit. Hes thought he deserved a sacrifice bunt. when he tapped the ball down right back of the pan and got caught catcher to first He grew irefuI and chewed his spearmint at least a mile an hour faster than before. When forced to go back in the boz and take another swing at it. he laid the bali hack of Humphries-a neat but ln- excusable stunt that put him on first and Nick on third. Dowling's double base smash tied the score.
 Visions of another sparkling up hill fight were beginning to be had by the few properly noisy fans. when Albu- querGue mixed a double and three singles and concocted three more scores in the third And sure enough the white suits began to be in evidence on the bags. when, in the fourth, Mutt singled and Lynn doubled But Mutt was chased to death on the third base line a moment later. when Pittman was rash enough to place the ball in the vicinity of Humphries. and that chap plus Raedel and Davis cOnspired. Ii didn't helpNmuch that Lynn scored on Scanlon's Texas Leaguer. and that Pittman crossed on a double steal ar rangement with Scan. after RaedeI had dropped the ball. For moment later Toner cloutedNthe air three times!. The scare mark indicates the shock of sur prise over Toners flaming.
 From then on, the ball game was re- mindful of Joe Walters toying with MT Ellison Wilson in motorcycle practice Says Joe, slowing up to ninety mile: an hour. "C'mon. boyeei''. holding ou his hand and playfully snapping hi: fingers. And Ellie didn't c'mon -boye for darn. It was just like that. Whel it was the fifth inning. Albuquerqu became rude to the ball and sent i tingling about the lot for two nor runs. And in the ninth. it was just tn same way. only, two bad errors in row helped instead of any hits tha could be discerned with the unaide' eye
 Now, it is time to tell some more o Jordan. Reference is made to him of and on in the upper part tof this story as you've noticed. Twas the sixth when things happened Tuesday. an by all rights should have happene again yesterday. Jordan took the pre- caution of having two out. when Ton CT came up. and instead of flaming tn Red Head. he walked him. Demaggi then did a mighty thing He atone for all his miserable work the day be fore, when he rsixed two two bagger with two careless stabs in left field He hit the ball. folks. he really did.
