McGraw, man- ager of the Giants, was involved. Others said to have been engaged in the fight, which occurred on the field near the gate leading to the club house at the beginning of the eighth inn- ing, are Gearge “Columbia” Smith. who pitched for Philadelphia, Ralph Shinners, a substitute outfield- er of the Giants. One version of the fight, gived by s 9 signed his place in the lineup at the opening of the ‘eighth frame to G. Wrightstone, he started to leave the field. Near the gate he encountered McGraw, according to this version, and words passed between the two. As McGraw and Smith closed on each other, Shinners, who was sun- ning himself on the right field bench, is said to have rushed between the two, Whereupon Smith turned his atten- tion to Shinners, it is said, and knock- ed him down with a right to the jaw. The fight then continued in a rough and tumble on the ground, until the players were separated and sent to their Tespective club houses. McGraw could ‘not be reached to- night. The only comment an official of the club would make was that “Smith may have taken a swing at McGraw.” The account of the fight as given by certain Giant plavers differs some- what from that of the witness. Shin- ners and Smith- they said, had engag- ed in the fight over the incldent of several weeks' standing In which the Philadelphia pitcher hit Shinners on the head with a pitched ball in a game at Philadelphia. This version declared Shinners to have precipitated { the fistic argument. Commission of- Baseball, Kenesaw M. Landis, attended the game, but said that he did not see the fight. —_— FANS HOPE BURKHARDT WILL PITCH FOR HARTFORD SUNDAY In anticipation of the Kaceys-Hart- ford All-Star game-to be played here on Sunday it is hoped by local fans 4 d d d 3 Stars as Burkhardt was the pitcher that beat the local team on Memo- rial Day when hurling for South Man- chester. Tt will be a much stronger team that takes the field against the All Stars: than® the ‘one that opposed Manchester but Eddie McKay and Jack Clabby and Bill Bergen wiil be there again. Bergen nicked Burkhardt for two hits and Clabby poled out a two bagger. Eddie McKay didn't bat against Burkhart. In the, Manchester game Burkhardt 7| did not register a strike out so with the team as it is today Burkhardt will have even a tougher task than on Me- morial Day. With all things consider- ed it is doubtful if Burkhardt will pitch although the fans would like to see him here again. Muldcon who caught for Willimantic last year and who has played against the local team sev- eral times will be in the All Star list Muldoon is a sticker and also a heady Dbackstop. Massey is another boy who will play with the Hartford tenm. Massey made an enviable rep with the Manchester team last season. All in all it looks like there would be plenty of action on Sunday and the game will be well worth seeing. On the Fourth the Rosebud Club of F 6 6 as an added attraction Tubbs' Band wlll give a concert. The proceeds of all the games go to the Tuberculosis Outdoor fund.
