In now famous Chicago

record for a single inning was
established. This greatest slug
fest in professional baseball came
in the seventh frame Of a cuatest
between Pop Anson's haTd-h:.ring
White Stockings and the Detr0its.
then in the National League.
Eighteen White Stockings made
the circuit of the bases during
the lucky-for Chicage-sesenth
inning, and twsnty-four men vent
to bat during that time. The final
score of the game was &c to u. in
FAVOR of Anson's team, which was
playing on the home gr0unds in
the Windy City.
