The Reds Extend Their Losing Streak To
Seventeen. |

Lowering clouds in the city until this afternoon
prevented more than six hundred people attending
the second game this afternoon between the
Cincinnati Reds and the Louisvilles. Those
present, however, witnessed one of the finest
contests of the season.
The sky was clear and the grounds were in good
condition, notwithstanding previous hard rains.
The Cincinnatis' bad luck lost them the game
again but the club deserves credit for its
excellent batting and fielding game. It was only
because the Louisvilles played so well that the
Reds have lost the last games scored against
them. Williams again pitched, but Dean was
placed in right, to be used in case of
necessity, which never occurred. In the
Louisvilles, Somerville being absent from the
city, Gerhardt played second, and Allison, who
has just left his sick bed, played first, being
his first appearance on the ball-field for over
four weeks.
As usual, the Reds didn't win the toss and had
to go to the bat first. Jones opened with a
terrific grounder to short, but Fulmer, making a
fine stop, fielded him out at first. Booth's
grounder to second prevented him getting first,
and Gould fouled out. Louisville followed,
Gerhardt going out on a fly to left. Devlin
fouling out to third and Hague's fair-foul being
sent to first in time. In the second inning
Pierson commenced business by sending a safe one
to center. Dean proved the first victim, fouling
out. Sweasy tried Pierson's game, and reached
first, sending Pierson to second. Foley sent a
daisy to left center sending Pierson home and
Sweasy to third. Snyder forced Foley out, and
Williams popped up a fly to short.
After Allison and Hastings went out in apple-pie
order, Fulmer made an earned run by three bases
to left, followed by Snyder's safe grounder past
third. Ryan struck out. In the third inning
nothing but sharp fielding prevented the Reds
from getting another run. After Snyder was put
out Jones and Booth each made safe hits. Gould
sent a very long fly to right, which Collins got
after a hard run, and by a magnificent throw to
first, succeeded in putting out Booth, Jones
meanwhile running for home. In the third and
fourth innings the Louisvilles didn't get a
single base hit. In the fourth inning the Reds
made two more base hits and lost another good
chance for a run by good fielding.
After Gould went out Pierson got in a safe hit
and reached second by a clean steal, while Dean
went out on a fly. Sweasy then sent a terrible
long grounder to far right and Pierson started
for home, but Collins fielded the ball to home
plate so quickly that Snyder put him out before
he could reach the plate. In the remaining five
innings the Reds only earned two base hits one
by Foley and the other by Gould. In the fifth
inning Snyder and Collins made base hits, but
they availed nothing. Hague made a two-baser in
the sixth inning, but it did no good. Thus up to
the seventh inning the score stood one to one,
with but three errors by the Cincinnatis, which
had done no harm, each club having earned its
run.
In the seventh inning the Reds went out in one,
two, three order, but the Louisvilles got three
runs, after Fulmer and Snyder were put out.
Fulmer;s put out by Foley, earned the latter
immense applause. Fulmer batted foul far out
near out foul flag. Foley, by a most exciting
run, caught it on the bound. He had to take off
his hat to the audience. Ryan hit hard past
third, getting first, stole second, and Pierson,
throwing too low, he reached third by fine
running. Collins safe hit sent Ryan home and
himself to first. Gerhardt pasted one for two
bases over Snyder's head. The latter got it
quickly and fielding to Booth who threw too high
to Pierson, while Collins trying got home. The
result was that Collins and Gerhardt both
reached home safely.
The last two innings neither club got a base
hit. The Louisvilles played one of the finest
games of the season, without an error. Collins
in right field did especially well, preventing
two scores by the Reds by sharp playing.
Williams' pitching was far more effective than
in the previous games, showing what he could do
when backed up well. Pierson, Sweasy and Foley
did good playing both with the slick and in the
field, while Snyder did his share in the left.
The single-base hits of the Reds exceeding those
of the Louisvilles by one, although they were
outranked in total bases.
Devlin again was afflicted. This time with a
real case of piles instead of boils, and some
one had to run for him. But his pitching in the
latter part of the game was especially very
effective. |
