Yesterday afternoon at >
[o’clock after he had warned a
people against betting in the
grand stand Umpire Lilly callec
ball and a big crowd settled
down to watch a game of ‘‘league
|quality,” but the first inning
wnen the Athletics run in four
men and in the second when six
more crossed over the river, it
was “all off.” Of course all local
i fans were better satisfied than if
the score had been reversed, but
there is no interest where every
thing is one sided, and the visit-
ors were just too weak for the
proposition they had run up
against and could only take what
was handed to them. They
promise a better game today,
| however, as they will have a new
man in the box and other new
| strength.
jThe Athletics play a regular
professional game and never re-
fuse a chance to make a fine
j play. Harris pitched the game
| yesterday and considering the
wind did some work, allowing
but one man to walk and giving
but five hits. Brazelton will be
[in the box today and something
handsome is expected of him.
The only trouble with the Ath
letics is that they are such swift
players that it is hard to get a
(team that is strong enough to
| hold them down to a reasonable
score.
