He allowed the spherald to make a wicked bounce and carome over his head, of the slugger. thus enabling the blow to drive in Olsen ahead The Amateurs certainly missed the services of Willie Ward at the initial sack. O'Brien was a good player but he lacked the ability to throw accurately. His two successive miscues, first a fielding error and then a wild peg to second, were chiefly responsible for the loss of a fourth marker as the base runner was able to reach the hot corner. Deegan, at left field, was jointly held for. the last tally. because he dropped a fly behind short kindly-to send the opmufüng Huebners throw and then making a wild heave to second in an effort to get the runner out. King popped one behind shortstop. Deegan ran forward to catch but he allowed the ball to drop out of his glove and score Sharples for the fourth and last tally.
