eral Very Costly
Errors

/ At the Montpelier seminary campu.
yesterday afternoon the Spaulding higl
school baseball team sent the Montpelie,
seminary team down to defeat by score
OF 10 to 9. In the first inning the sem
mary team scored one-half of their runs
but in the second the high school team
scored four and did not let the Mont.
pelier team get ahead again during the
remainder of the game.
1t was little cold for baseball. A
| crowd numbering over 300 stood and
watched out the nine innings of play
Interest in the game was deep and much
cheering was done on each good play by
the seminary.
Peg OLIVER walked to the pitchers box
for the Spaulding team and after set
thing down after the first inning he
pitched good game against the semi
narians. At a, few odd times he was a
little wild, but aside from these few
breaks he was in the harness doing great
work. His speed worked wonders and
Levin, who was stationed behind the
bat, had some difficulty in managing
some of his throws From his delivery
only five hits were made
Aside from two errors in the first in
ming BY Smith, who was stationed at
third, the high school settled down to
business and did not make another or.
ror with the exception of Levin, who
was having his hands full, receiving
throws from OLIVER One play that
proved to be a "bone" on the part OF
the Spaulding team came in the seventh
inning. Walbridge had secured his posi-
ton at first by being passed on balls and
st. Mary was on third. oliver threw
to Tomssi, getting Walbridge off first.
While they were trying to get the man
out at first, st. Mary started to score
and the throw from Tomasi being little
wild, st. Mary did so.
All the other players on the Spaulding
team played a good game and especially
Tomasi on first, who pulled down some
high throws and succeeded in getting
some hard flies. Smith somewhat atoned
for his two errors made in the beginning |
Of the game by getting three good stops |
later and also assisting in one double |
play. Ricciarelli who was playing in
the place of Hooker at second, filed his |
position with credit, making three nice
assists and two clean singles at bat.
Baird started of the pitching for the
seminary team but all the Spaulding |
men hit him so hard he was obliged to
retire at the end of the fifth inning and
take a place at second base. Parker
took up position at third and Hay, who
iad been playing third, stepped into the
pitchers box. He was also touched up
or five hits by the Spaulding boys, who
welded the ash with great vigor at yes
erday's game. Only four of the high
ehool men had the J .isfortune or bad
uek TO strike out yesterday. Several
lines long drives were sent TO the farther
nd OF the field and the seminary's field
re- were able to get a hearty cheer from
heir upholders by pulling down what
eemed booked for hit.
Nearly all on the seminary team had
share in making the errors OF the ga
nat none made over two. Pike, who was
laying in right field. had the bad luck
o drop two flies in succession and both
anne at time when a put-out would
ave stopped a run. Hudson, who was
laying shortstop for the seminary team.
ad his name left clear Of errors and in h
he fourth inning he pulled down a nice
v that was sent from the bat swung by
'icciarelli.
