Thirty-four Strikeouts. A remarka feature of Harris' work was that he gave only two bases on balls during the game. Coombs was a lot steadier than he became in after years, for he allowed only sty bases on bhalls, which would be an average performance in nine innin Moreover, three of those passes were issued antionally to dangerous atsmen with men on bases. Coombs | struck out 19 batsmen and Harris reg- istered 15 strikeout Some idea of what to a ball player can be figured from the fact that it entailed 144 putouts, 72 on each side. Grimshaw, first base- man for Boston, rulled up a total of 24 put and Lou Criger 11. The work of Fred Parent, afterward with the White and Hobe Ferris was sen- sational. Between them they accepted 28 chances around second base without an error. Several times they cut off hits which would have ended the game. The players of both teams were will- ing to stop with the score tied 1 to 1 at the end of 23 innings. The outfield- ers complained it was so dark they could not see the ball when it was hit until it was well on its way. The other plavers were tired under the strain, but Tim Hurst, the bulldog of arbitrat- ors, made them go on and the next round brought the knockout. Philadelphia scored the first run in the third inning. After Powers had fanned Coombs landed safely at first, when Harris §ell down flelding a slow grounder toward third base. Being a ret-('n( collegian, Coombs did not know was unfashionable for pitchers to r||n bases, so he proceeded to steal second. He went to third on Hartsel's infleld out, and Bris Lord scored him with a single. Tied in Sixth. Boston tled the knot in the sixth In- ning. Hayden was thrown out at first by Monte Cross. Parent followed with a triple and Stahl with a single which sent Fred across the plate and pro- longed the game almost interminably.

I'm not worrying about filling Tinker's place at short fleld. Art Phelan, secured from the Reds, 1s a high class yvoungster. He can play short or third base almost as well as the best men in the game. Then we have Corridon from Detroit, who Is very promising. He played wonderful ball in Kansas City last season, but was worn out and stale when Detroit tried him in the fall. Al Bridwell, too, has a chance to get Tinker's place. If his underpinning is all right he may excel both Phelan and Corridon. ~ “The Cubs will have a better out- field than Before. Mike Mitchell is sure of & pace. He is a corking hit- ter and thrower.

Her last appearance was on the half mile track at the Brockton fair, where she won easily In 2.27 3-4 and 218 3-4.

Here's what Jim Jeffries thinks of the twenty round battle scheduled for Vernon Cal, New Year's day: “If Palzer doesn’t ntup McCarthy in less than ten rounds I will be sur- prised. O'Rourke has a wonderful fighter in this big Dutchman, He 18 faster than I expected and is a tre mendous hitter. I had been led teo | beleve Palzer was just a strong rough greenhorn, but I am now convinced that he knows a lot about boxing and ring generalsbip. He is one of the best heavywelghts I've ever seen, and unless I miss my guess be is the com- ing champion of the world.” Tim McGrath, the veteran trainer, who helped to put Tom Sharkey in the front rank of heavyweights many years ago, also waxed enthusiastio over Palzer after he had seen him work at Jack Doyle's quarters near Los Angeles. “Why, this fellow ain't & man” ex- claimed MoGrath. “He's a monster, He don’t belong to this age.
