Tuesday's Game.
HOME TEAM VICTORIOUS.
First OMM of the Saasew Results
in a Scot* of 5 to 1
One of tbe most beautiful .frame*
ot baseball ever witness«l on oar
diamond was played Tuesday after
noon between Willi sme ton sad
Greenville. Clean, (nil of excite
meut,*nd startling foatnres,marked
bj lust serenity which aliould al
ways characterise good ball play
ing was in evidence throughout the
gsme.
The locals, whose courage can
never be daanted, went on the
grounds roll of sangalnity and they
had their hopes realised,
a hotly coutested game, they had
victory to perch on their banners in
the score of 5 to 2. The locals went
first to bat with their crack-player,
the veteran, A. T. orawford, first
man up who scored the only ran of
the iuuing.
The visitors came op with deter
mination plainly visible, but, alas,
they conldu't flud the ball.
There was not another run made
on either side during the flrst four
iuuiug*,aiid looked as 11 goose eggs
were everything yn the bill of fare.
There w.ii some beautiful play
ing during this time, Ilobbs in the
box lor the locals allowed the visit,
orsoulyone bit.
Jordan's arrival during the forth
inning n .»i hailed like that of a
Roman Oonqneror. lie was put in
theliox In the oth inning and pitched
gnml ball until the liuiab, only one
hit being made by visitors.
* There wn* some good work in the
Held by the visitor*; ado ible in the
sth by Sngg, Woodard and Whit
ne y being cue of tin no-t beautiful
lea lures •>! tl;« game.
• The visitors in the sth inning
scored one run on llubb'* enor at
3rd. Bki:iP"r'•» ran in tlx* 7th was
disputed by the lochlx, a Hedging that
he ,v n* out by in Al
lowed hi-iit • sc n in order uot to
torimuate tho g.ime
C«K>k*a catch of a flv, with the'
volicity of u cannon ball, in.the sth,
Taylor's |o:ig run for s high fly in
the 6th, bronght the rooter* to their
feet.aud such rootiug is l.nrd to de
actibe, nt least, in this account.
Biggs on llrst did •xcellent work
lor the local*, in the 6th inning re
tiring the side single handed; Imk
two-bagger In the 7th scoring two
runs was another feature of the
game.
Si Iterson behind the bat sustained
his Deputation ns a catcher.
In the 7th the locals jumped on
to Forbes for two doables and two
singles, scoring 4 runs. O
Woodard, second baseman for
Greenville, hurt his lelt shoulder
very badly in the 7Mi sliding to nee
ond- lie was attended by Dr. liar
rell and sent to the hotel Daks was
substituted.
In the Btli,Sugg, the crack pitcher
of Kiuston, went in Tor the vis
itors and was a puzzle for the home
Imys, not allowing them another
ran during the game.
Jordan strnck out 9 men in the
Isat three Innings. ■
f The playing of Capt.Hiuitb st 3rd
hane.SugK at short, Bkluner st Ist
Wlftte in left field, was exception*
ally good. The only real weak point
of the Greenville boys was iu bat
ting.
Mr. 8. W. Harrell, the umpire,
displayed that usual impartiality
which be always shows in this re
japsei. '—■— **>—
Abont 300 people attended the
the game. The rooting at times
was aomethiug \ awful, The
following is the batting order of the
teams, so 1 the noons by innings.
