1882 Brooklyn Robins.
The game went y innings bu,

as from the old Robins. are base
prevaricators. The Robins are the
same crazy birds who tapped their
wings in the face of law and order
and crowed at conventions under
the lenient tutelage of Uncle
Robbie
I began to suspect they were the
same old dodos in the third inning
when Mister Lefty O'Doul. the emf
nent outfielder. went into a song
and dance while waiting for Ho-
gan's easy fly just as the ball was
about to strike his glove, O'Doul
ducked his head coyly, allowing it
the ball, not his headD TO go for
q double.
My suspicious were doubled in
the fifth when Mister William

Clark's laZiness in good fun, patting
him on the back as if to say: 7
don't blame you one bit, OF boy,
1t is pretty hot
Mixed In Batters
1t was in the sixth inning, how
ever, that the Robins proved they
are still the kingpin nuts of the
league by mixing up their batting
order This confusion cost them
the run that would have given
them the game in the regulation
number of innings. With Cucci-
nello on second, Lopez strobe 10
the plate and cracked a single. AT
this point the giants swarmed from
their dugout and pointed out 10
Umpire Rigler that according to
the lineup handed out by Man
ager Carey at the start of the game
it was Kelly's and not Lopez's time
to bat.
There was nothing for Rigler
to do but call The run off and
Lopez out.
Did this bonehead performance
upset the Robins? Were they mad
at themselves for throwing away
run? Not one whit. When
Lopez went TO bat in the seventh
his mates gave him a rousing cheer.
He answered this support with u
robust strikeOut and ran eagerly
TO the bench, where he was ac-
corded a heart-warming reception
Not only do the Robins act
