A question arose in connection with the Fafnir-New Britain XMa- chine game at Willow Brook k last night as to the final score. As the matter is explained to us, the score stands 6 to 4 in favor of the Fafnir Bearing. It seems that the Fafnir team was batting last and in the inning which proved to be the final one, they went in and with one man out, counted five runs, making the count 11 to 4. It was so dark that the umpires decided that it was useless to try to play any longer and the game was called before the inning was finished. In this case, the score then stands 6 to 4. The team which is leading in a game does not, have to take its last bats and an inning is finished only when three men are out. If the Fafnir team was behind in this frame and the game jvas called, the score would revert ba to the pre- vious inning. As it was last night, the game is finished when the New Britain Machine Co., had finished its inning at bat. ha One of the most amazing surprises of the year was sprung yesterday afternoon by the Smith team when it a ed last v champlons, the Paradise Parks in the Boys' league. The Smith team last s a doormat for the rest of \e league and at the start of this vear's play appeared to be weak. The team has improved in a won- Jerful manner since the opening came and is now a strong contender for league honors. The Corbin Red Sox are playing the Aetna Fire team of Hartford to- night at Willow Brook park in the first appearance of the local team in this city this season. The Hartford team has a wonderful record for the present season and it also has a strong lineup. The team has been playing in the findustrial League of Hartford and only the other day was barely nosed but for the championship. The Cor- foin Red Sox have been enjoying one for its best seasons and expects to [op a victory tonight. Fans who are -speculating on the ity champlonship play which' starts week from next Sunday will have un opportunity to size up the in eal action tonight, and from pres- nt indications there will be a large firowd on hand to watch the game. f The Kensington team played a 4 0 4 tie with the Sons of Italy at the Kensington grounds last night. The ower end team is shaping up for a eal battle with the Falcons and Red ox in the champlonship series and his city is due to see some of the est baseball it has seen in years. It is seldom, if every that three l:ams so evenly matched as are the lorbin Red Sox, Falcons and Kens- figton engaged in league play for he champlonship of a city, but that i what is going to happen when the hampionship play opens on August Fans in this city are about evenly ecided about the series and there Ll probably be a lot of the long een placed on the faverites. Kens gton has a large number of back- s, but their numbers do not equal e Falcon cohorts, while the Red fx have a big share of favor from le fans. Those who are able to de- de the city champlonship before it played, are certainly crystal \zers of the first magnitude. To us it appea that the three ams are about as evenly set now L they could possibly be. Judging om the play during the past sea- n, the three teams have met some the same state outfits and they ive both won and lost to them. 1 quality of the scores in each of o games is evidence enough that o three teams in this city will be al gladiators in meeting each oth- Another meeting of the managers Il be necessary before things are mpletely settled.
