Ritchey of the Cincinnatis has not played in a championship game this season that he did not do something to distinguish himself. He was in it again yesterday. His one hit came right when it was most needed. It drove one run across the plate, and sent another one to a place where it could score on Ritchey’s steal. McPhee had ten chances in Wed- nesday’s game. , Four or five of them were difficult ground balls. Patsey Tebeau only had three chances, and only one of these was a grounder: It was an easy chance, and was on the next to the last man put out by his side. If Patsey don’t have any more to do at second base than has come his way in the two games with the Reds, he won't have much difficulty in filling tlds’ place. ‘I'll never vote for another schedule that calls for twenty games on the home grounds in one stretch, or for the western teams to finish the season on eastern grounds,” said President Robison today. “It isn’t just that we should play the final games of the sea- son on eastern grounds. The homestretch is the most important part of t! race, and turn about ts fair play. Stahl brcught his bat into play from the word go, and in the winning and tie games it is very probable they would have gone against Boston but for his work. He is a hitter all right, and a sensational find. Mr. Wagner of the Washington club passed ten days in watching this lad Jast season, nd would have secured him for his club had not Manager Schmelz said he did not want him. Accordingly, Mr. Wagner draft- ed him for Boston. Both gentlemen must have been decidedly of the opinion that there was room for him after the manner matters have turned out this spring. Mr. Wagner must have been greatly disap- pointed in young Lush, for he expected he would be the fielding sensation of the sea- son.—Boston Exchange. PENNSYLVANIA-GEORGETOWN. An Interesting Contest is Likely This Afternoon. ‘The University of Pennsylvania will play Georgetown University on Georgetown Field this afternoon at 4 o'clock. A great deal has been said of Pennsylvania's weak- ness, but the red and blue will give the blue and gray about all the argument the local boys want. The arrangement which Capt.
