division of the Saturday league in St.
Paul, were simply smothered in a six
inning contest with the locals when the
latter launched another of theiK terrific
batting sprees that gave them an II to
count
The visiting team were not complete.
Their regular catcher and left fielder were
unable to make the trip, and their star
pitcher, who accompanied the team was
not in the game on account of an extreme
" sore arm. The visitors relied chiefly
upon new recruits to do the twirling and
three of them were hit numerically hard.
No doubt, but what the game would have
had different ending, providing all men,
bers of their team had been present.
The locals put up rotten game in
their defensive work and especially so in
the infeld. But their offensive work was
sufficient to overcome their weakness in
the defensive and give them the victory.
Thomp started to do the heavy work
for the locals but after he had worked
for one and one-tbird inning, the manager
decided it was best to call him in and
sent VOL out as. a relief. During Thomps
period in the box, the visitors started
right off the reel in scoring. Zenzius the
first man up went out on pop fly to
liver. Smith got on the runway when
Yves fumbled his ,grounder and went to
second on a wild pitch and moved up
another peg on a passed ball by Lob and
scored on Olsons sacrifice fly to ON.
Peterson was passed on balls but Philips
was thrown out, Yves to Bur. One rum,
no hits two errors.
The second opened up by Bordeaux get
ting a base on Sans error. Nelson walked
and both runners pulled off a double steal
G. Anderson went out on line drive to
San and by San throwing wild to third
trying to complete a double play, he al
lowed Bordeaux to score. H. Anderson
got single, scoring Nelson. Zenzius was
passed on balls. At this stage of the
game, Thomp was relieved by VOL and
Smith, the next man up, was thrown out,
VOL to Bur. Peterson struck out, retiring
the side. Two runs, one hit, two errors.
The visitors got one more counter in the
third off base hit and three infed errors.
This ended their scoring until the fifth.
Then by VOL hitting the first batter up,
passing another on balls, allowing two
two-baggers that were aided with two in
field errors, four runners scored before
the side was retired. This ended the
visitors scoring and they had for the time
being tied up the score. But with perfect
defensive work the locals should have
held them to only three earned runs. One
off Thomp and two off VOL.
c. Anderson started to do the twirling
for the visitors and the local batsman
made it so uncomfortable for him, he only
lasted two frames. During that time he
passed two on balls and allowed nine safe
hits, five of them for extra bases, that
netted the locals a total of six runs.
Philips pitched the following three chap
tiers and his work upon the mound seemed
to have but very little effect on the local
tribesmen. He passed two on balls, al
lowed seven hits, two of them for extra
bases, that gave the locals five more runs.
Olson pitched the last frame and he was
successful in holding the locals scoreless.
He struck out one man and allowed one
hit.
I liver was the king of batsmen for the
day. Out of five trips to bat he got two
two-baggers and two singles. However,
Bon gave him a merry chase for this
honor. Out of four trips to bat for Bon,
he got one two-bagger and two singles,
that brought in three runs besides scoring
once himself. Out of Iver's heavy hitting
he battled in two runs and scored twice.
Every member of the local tribesmen who
