Thirty-five players, two scorers and
| Umpire b, J. Doyle went to sleep in
the gathering darkness at Union
| Park yesterday in the sixth inning.
With but two out in the sixth Winston
and Aloysius players changed sides
and proceeded to play when it was
discovered that but two men had been
retired by the Aloysfus lads after
two runs had been counted by the
| Winstons.
Umpire Doyle sent the Winstons
back to the bat. Davis, of the Aloysius
lads, Central High star by the way.
heaved up one ball. B. Fitzgerald, of
the Aloysius lads, started an argu-
ment which greatly favored calling
the game on account of darkness.
The Aloysius lads had stalled some
what previous to that time but hat
not prevented the Winstons scoring
two runs. The score stood q to in
favor of Winston. AS the argument
between Fitzgerald and Doyle pro-
gressed the umpire called the game on
account of dilatory tactics. Fitzgerald
gained his point as the game reverted
to the even inning which brought the
score to four all.
THE Winston A. c. desires to enter
| a protest against the game with the
Aloysius A. c. played on August II
at Union Park" declares d. c. Wood
cock, manager of the Winstons. "Mr
Doyle, the umpire in charge, called
the game in the sixth inning on ac-
count of the dilatory tactics of the
Aloysius players, the score being G to
in favor of the Winstons in the
sixth. The umpire, after calling said
game. set the score back to A, thus
| closing the game at a tie, as this was
the score in the fifth inning"
Umpire Doyle stated that he called
| the game on account of dilatory tao
| tics on the part OF Aloysius players
| 1t was dark at the time, and in the
opinion of the arbiter too dark to
continue the unfinished inning and
play through another half.
According to baseball rules three
men must be retired. There were only
two out when the game was called.
| The score stands at a tie and will be
played on August %.
