Olsen Loses In First Battle When Sedgewick # Wins Own Game

F CHATTANOOGA Tenn, June 15 f---Chattanooga and Birmingham bat tied twenty-one innings of hard-fought baseball for more than four hours to- day and when darkness descended on the field the Lookouts had won one encounter by 4 to 8 and tied the other with sensational fielding, intensely in- teresting emergencies; chances for both teams to mop up, together with , occasional flashes of bad baseball; Tn short, two games of the kind that make baseball the gripping pastime that 1t IS.
 Clean pinch hits scored four Look out runs in the first, Niehaus getting two, D. Anderson one and Sedgwick winning his own game with a triple in the eleventh after two were down and another inning seemed certain. In the same game, Brauseh's triple with two on was the big noise in the Birming- ham attack. The Barons got to James in one inning of the second and tied the score of Sedgwick, after the home team had profited by Goods wildness for four runs. The last six innings saw a beautiful pitching duel in which both teams missed chances to win.
 The Lookouts tied the score in the second game on an unusual play. With the bases full, one out and the intield in, John Andy hit a high fly back of second. Stewart ran back, Camp ran up. The two grew nervous at each others proximity and backed off, the ball finally falling to the ground. Um- pire Doolan had not called it an ir14 field fly and all the runners attempted to advance. Kress had the biggest lead, off third, and made it home, but Stewart tossed the ball to Hartford in time to tag Carroll, coming down from first. The umpire finally ruled a double play, calling John Andy out under the infield fly rule and holding that runners may advance on the play, at their peril. Chattanooga and Bir- ningham teams took turns in an ex- cited colloquy which lasted ten min utes.
 With two gone in the Lookouts' first of the opening game, John Andy walked, stole second and scored by daring base running on Niehaus' pretty knock to left. Two were out also in the fourth, when Clarke burnt hit through Rhode and scored on D.. Andy's long smash to right center, which Camp held to a double by fast fielding.
 The Barons tied it in the fifth. Hart ford strolled, Robertson was hit, Olsen sacrificed and Brausen tripled, scoring the two. The Barons took the lead in the fifth when Camps hot grounder to right got through Milner and was good for four bases. The ball hit the ground just back of second, but kept going. The Lookouts tied it in the eighth, Niehaus again being the hero. Bates pried with safety, Carroll sac rificed and after John Andy flied out, Niehaus lined a hefty single to left center, scoring Bates. Two were down in the eleventh when Massey placed neat safety in center and Sedgwick sent him home with a triple that hit just an inch inside the first base and caromed to the bleachers' rail.
 The Lookouts were of ahead again in the second game. Bates was safe on Stewards error. Carroll hit and a pass to Niehaus filled the bases, with one out Clark cracked a liner to center, which Jeanes grabbed, but Bates scored.
 In the Baron fourth Stewart got an infeld hit, Rhode walked and Jeanes sacrificed. Camp flied out, but James passed Ganzel and Hartford supplied a neat pinch blow to center, two coming over. Spencer got an infield hit to Massey, scoring Ganzel. In the last
