Victory in yesterday's game gives the Burlington team undisputed claim to top position in the league and gives the Standard equal right to®remain in’ the cellar. The game was hot and Closely contested thru- out With the issue always in doubt and with both teams playing air tight ball. Most of the frames were over in one-tveo-three order, with either strikeouts, or quick put-outs at first playing the leading roles The fielding of both teams was practically flawless, and except for the elghth inning when the Standard boys seemed to go to pieces for a moment, only one or two errors were chalked up for both sic Roach pitched the entire game for the Burlington team and held his opponents to-elght scattered hits. He uses a speedy ball, and a very effective slowball, and time and again Standard heavy hitters re turned to the bench with that “how does he do it” look on thelr faces.
