CURRENT SPORTING NOTES ns The first game of the series of three be- tween the Richmond and Washington clubs will be played this afternoon at National Park, the game being called at 4.15. Man- ager Schmelz will offer the big attrac- tion “of Al Maul in the box for three in- ningss “Silver” King for three and Hil- lary Swaim for the remaining innings of The game. These pitchers are the three big men. of local club, not to say of the big eek a8 it is a question whether any’ club has: three such big men on its tching staff. Maul and King are anxious to demonstrate that they are in first-class condition and that their good right arms |” have not lost their cunning, while Swaim will go into the box with the hope that @ Iittle exertion will drive the last remain- " ing traces of the grip from his system. | The Richmond club is a member of the Atlantic League this year and the play~ ers gathered together form a strong com- dination of fielders and hitters. The Bal- timore, Brooklyn and Pittsburg clubs have ercesed bats with the Virginia lads and the score denoted a fin: struggle for su- Premacy. The batting order of the clubs is as fol- | < lows: Richmond. DP day afternoon that Manager Irwin had cured a first-class man for the shortstop pesition on the Toronto team and that Moss of last year's Syracuse team was the man secured. Moss shared honors with De Mon- treville in "9 as to who was the best short- stop in the Eastern League. Secretary Robb remarked to a Star _re- porter yesterday that he had sent out 5,000 “Ladies’ day” tickets and had received in return only six acknowledgments. Tomorrow is ‘Ladies’ day” at National Park, and should the weather permit, quite a turnout of the ladies can be counted on. The “Ladies’ days" teo cold for comfort. IRWIN TRYING HIS PITCHERS. heretofore have been Third. Game With Toronto the Least Interesting. The third and closing game of the series between. the Toronto and Washington teams proved the least interesting of all. A hew catcher, a novice at short and a substitute at second took all the starch out of the visitors at the go-off, and the home club won about as It pleased. Mar- ager Irwin has been trying out his pitch- ers, and it was Williams’ turn to face the Senators yesterday. He hails from the Charleston, S. C., Southern League team, and, in the face of miserable, headless support, did really good work, the total registered hits against him being 14, with a total 6f 17. /McJames started the twirling for the Ha vee andthe only two runs the Tor- boys recorded were secured off of his ae livery, principally through hard luck. Jimmy had been lauding his fielding abil- ity. to the other players during he morning Practice, and the second ball that carhe his way in the game he fumbled and prob- ably lost a chance for a double play. These 4wo runs came over the plate on a beauty hit to right center by McGann. Had Mc- James done his work well the visitors would probably have been shut out. Kimball came into the game in the fourth inning, and, in the face of the known ability of the Toronto club, with the slick, really did the best work of his spring prac- tice. Yesterday -was the first warm day that Kimball has met with since he has been {fn Washington, and the balmy weather permitted him to cut loose with his swift ball, which, mixed up with his other assortments of slows and drops, kept the batters continually guessing. The real feature of the game was the showing up that DeMontreville gave the infield of the Toronto club in the first in- ning, and the lesson taught them will do them good for the remainder of the season. Selbach hit to center for a single, and in endea’ to make it a double slid into second feet first, the spikes on his shoes striking Taylor, the second baseman, on the right hand, cutting him badly. The game came to a standstill at once without “time” being called, and Tay!or walked over to Umpire Heydler to show him his injury. A sympathizing group collected, and while they were all crowded around the umpire DeMontreville secured the ball and rolled it into center field. Before the ball could be recovered Selbach scampered home. As the umpire had not witnessed the foxy transaction, the run had to go down to the credit of the Senators. It was rather hard on the other players, but as the local club are endeavoring to play the game as they. would if a championship con- test was on, the little shortstop cannot be blamed. Charley Abbey was in center in place of Brown, and again demonstrated his value to the club through his stick work and running bases. O'Brien, at second, had eight chances and took them all, and, in tact, the little slip up of McJames and the |, wild throw of McGuire were really the only bad plays of the game. Following is ‘the score in detail: TORONTO. cumonwmence wemoueocum> seucspnsce? ito Earned rune—Washingt ‘Toronto, 2. Two-base hits—Selbach, O'Brien, Ab- bey, Freeman and McHale.
