The home team had on their batting clothes, besides having their erack battery on hand. The result of the combi- nation was that New York was badly beaten, the score standing 10to3. Mutrie’s men could do al- most nothing with the Grasshopper’s eccentric curves, making but four bits. ‘Three of these Dunehéd in the third inning yielded two and another run Was scored in the second by Donneily’s fumbie of Gore’s liner, the umpires Shaky decision when the New Yorker stole second, snd Hoy’s wide throw-in of a long ly.
