In view of the fact that Upchurch

II was mad field, despite the
fact that the sun was shining bright

real ball game. For the first four,
each team had gotten two men on
bases, one of which for each club
had died there.
Each pitcher had allowed two
hits. Then Nose Poolaw gummed up
the detail, aided and abetted by
