Gossip About the Barons
 and Baseball In General
Hy FRED BoDEKER

game for the Moleys for he would have told the youngsters what to do.
 Eddie is always in the game and the average fan doesn't know it. Every team needs men who can lead the remaining members and Eddie is just that sort of a fellow. Had he been on the line yes terday he would have probably kept cool instead of getting excited, and touched the home plate. forcing Sheehan out Hyatt, who was on second when the play began, ran to third and perched on the bag. Consequently, there wasn't any use of trying to touch Sheehan out but only to touch the home plate. Understand, the fact that a mere ball game was lost yesterday is not the cause of all of this explanation, but 1t Is cited to show some of our famous "grandstand managers that they are not the best" in the universe after all Bill Webb is a fine little ball player and we think he should be kept on the roster throughout the season, but nevertheless, we still ar que Eddie is the logical man for the third base job
 Yesterday was the first ladies' day of the season and the fair sex responded faithfully They were greatly disappoint- ed in the failure of the Barons to cop the engagement
 Bill Southworth, the new gardener se- cured by the Barons Sunday from the Portland club of the Coast league, did not report yesterday as expected Bill will probably report to Moley today and will start south with the tribe tonight.
 Following today's game the Barons pack up and ride the cushions to Mobile. where they meet the Gulls. The Barons are on the road until April 26, when they return home for a series with the New Orleans Pelicans. The stay will last for about a month, every team in the cir cult performing before the local colony.
 Moley will probably send either Arthur Johnson or Karl Black against the Look outs today in an effort to cop the deciding battle and the series. Johnnie is being used exclusively for a. relief hurler as his arm is not in mid-season form as yet. Karl, however, is in good shape and he should be able to defeat the El- berfeld clan, especially after they have faced two right handlers.
 There is a great opposition to the &C., tion of the baseball association in start
 ing the game at o'clock. The time will be dropped to about 30 o'clock and prob ably 4 o'clock when the Barons return home after the journey.
 There S one good thing about starting at 3 o'clock. The game is usually over by o'clock and helps the s. e. to get through a little ahead of time
 The Pels continue to win. They record ed their sixth straight yesterday. It'll probably fall to the lot of the Moleys to crush the Dobbers.
 A victory today over the Loolkouts and the home stay will be valuable. The Bar ons came home from Nashville tied with the Lookouts for second place and this morning they stand the same. Todays little conflict will tell the tale.

BARONS TIE THE COUNT

The game rocked along until the sixth, when the Barons placed affairs on an even basis. With one man gone, Kid Gaton tripled to deep center and scored a moment later on the squeeze play Doc Johnston bunting the ball down the first base line. The Kid scored easily.
 The Lookouts scored the winning tally in the ninth frame. Sheehan hit a slow roller down the third base line, and was safe when Webb, Smith and Hill decided to see of the ball would roll foul. It was the wise play, however, for Shee- han would have beat the tap out had the ball been fielded. Ham Hyatt bunted down the third base line. and Hill threw the ball slow to first. Consequently, the big gardener beat his tap out.
 Paddock bunted to Hill and both men advanced a bag. The dirty work started here. The squeeze play was tried but pitch out crossed the Lookouts. Graf saved the mporarily-when he threw his bat at the ball. It was a foul down the first base line. With two strikes and no balls. Graft attempted to

Sheehan had started for home and Red Smith chased him back up the line. He tagged the Lookout first sacker for the final out but dropped the ball. Sheehan got up and with every Baron on the team on the line between third and home, Kid Caton became too anxious to throw the ball and booted 1t, allowing Sheehan to score Watt flied out for the final out of the session.
 Fans called upon the heavy hitters Of the Barons to get the run back, but John- ston, Coombs and Clark went out in or- der, ending the game
 The Lookouts fought hard for the game and had the continuous wrangling been omitted the game would have been a real contest.
 At that it was the best little battle staged in Redwood this season.

Rr FRED RonEKER

Birmin gham and Chattanooga both game yesterday at Redwood, but the Lookouts punched their favorite breaks in the final session, and consequently scored a to 1 victory over the Bar ons. The victory of the LOokouts evened the series and the final game, which will be played today, will decide the temporary holder of second place in the league standing.
 The work of Empires Cy Morgan and Bill Hart caused mutiny among the play CTS and fans. The Lookouts protested against the decisions of the arbiters ire quently, especially Morgans work be- hind the bat, and finally Manager FL berfeld was elected from the game and Tommy Knowlson was ordered from the field for their continuous objection to the "umps' decisions.
 The Barons fought an uphill battle, and for a time it appeared that the tide of the contest had turned and the Moleys would actually be victorious. The fatal ninth session, however, proved the un- doing of the Barons.
 Carmen Hill did the flinging for the Barons, and although he was hit hard at times, he pitched a fair game and would ordinarily be credited with a win instead of defeat. The bespeckled twirler was wild, however, but he managed to twist out of several bad holes caused by his unsteadiness.

MERRITT IN FORM

Howard Merritt one of Elberfeld 8 southpaws did the flinging against the Moleys and he twirled a creditable game. especially during the early stages. He, too, worked out of several bad holes
 He pitched a better game than Hill, allowing only four hits, while the Look outs laced out seven safeties off the Baron hurler. A few of these were fn- field taps, however, but they aided in the scoring of the winning tally.
 The Lookouts scored the first run in the second inning. Ham Hyatt cracked a single to center, but was forced at second by Paddock. who immediately stole second. Kid Elberfeld drove a safety to left and Paddock scored The Kid was out trying to stretch the hit into a double. Coombs to Clark

Barons Loose Heart- Breaker 70 Lookouts

The game yesterday was certainly heart-breaker for any team in any old league to lose. It was anybodys game from the start and the Lookouts evil dently thought that they were best suited for a victory and consequently copped the honors. Anyway, they won.
 It was Red Smiths fatal miscue in the ninth that gave the Lookouts the strug- gle. Red, however, is player who sel- dom makes a costly play and he can be excused. It wasn't all Reds fault at that, for had Kid Caton thrown the ball to the plate in place of holding 1t and finally losing it on the ground, Sheehan would never have scored with the win ming tally.
 There's no use crying over spilled milk, however, and about the best thing for the Barons to do is to cop that old ball game this afternoon. The team was about due to lose game, having recorded four straight wins, and if the same ratio is continued the entire season, the Moleys will win the rag in walk
 It looked for a time yesterday that the struggle would go into extra innings, but the bunting attack of the Lookouts, together with a few other things which happened. changed this idea before the third out in the ninth had been reg
 stered.
 Howard Merritt pitched a nice game better than we thought he had left after all these years of service Howard isn't so old, at that, but everyb ody had begun to think his pitching days were over. He outpitched Carmen Hill by wide mar gin. and he would probably have per formed much better had he not become peeved at Cy Morgan's decisions.
 Incidentally. both Morgan and Hart had an off-day yesterday. Cy missed several behind the plate while Bill had his op- tics slightly twisted on a couple of plays at first. It is not the policy of The Age Herald, however, to use the hammer on the umps, as they have the hardest job on the ball field. Everybody has an off, day occasionally and the poor perform ances of the two arbiters must be over looked.
 The great need for Eddie Mcdonald at third base was illustrated more in yes- terday's battle than any time previously this season and sooner or later the fans will realize that the field leader last year is again needed to balance the present organization.
 The chief incident referred to occurred. in the ninth inning. After Red Smith had fumbled the ball and Sheehan was safe, the Lookout first-sacker stood be- tween the horde of Barons, puzzled what action to take. Kid Caton, who had the ball, was equally as dumbfounded. Now, here's what we argue: Had Eddie been at the hot corner he would have been in the midst of the excitement and naturally being of cool judgment, his presence would probably have saved the
