THE OMAHA DAILY REE: THURSDAY. EPTEMBER 19 1901 SEASON ENDS IN DISASTER Yields Fourth Place te Deaver in Tragedy of Errors. FATAL €RRORS IN NINTH ARE TO BLAME Om Unacconntable Miss By Calhous lowed by Collapse of Fleming ‘and MoAndrews Deecide By a tragedy of errors ia the ninth in- ning Omaba Iost to Denver yesterday the game that decided whether Omaha should occipy fourth or Afth place in the per- centage column at the season’'s close. The final scofe was 3 to 2 and what made this finish the’ more pitiful was the fact that thoe yisitors had not a single rus till that fatal ioping. | Ihoun, to Fleming and to McAn- Is due the breaking of the bearts of the large crowd of enthusiasts which Kathered to see its favorites make It three stralght from Deover and a sure berth in the upper half of the list of team stand- ings. Calhoun lost the game, Flemiog cinched it, then McAndrews wet the kmot. Just ap error each (o cancel these three| runs, not vne of which was earned. And this Is how it happened. When Bill Everitt’s men cams to bat at the end of the ecighth inning Omaba had two runs, Denver none, seven hits were reglstered for the locals, six for their opponents; one error 3.00d In the error column of the Gate City men, thres were cbalked against the Pike's Peakers People began to get up 80 as to watch the last few minutes of play standing. It was then that Mr. Dunden came to bat. He hit a hot ope to Toman and that player completed his total of five clean assists by flelding it to first as the crow files. One out and the spectators swayed towards the exits. Shortstop Radcliffe was next. A safe single over second base wa his contribution. Then Allowar hit Frisk with the ball. That made two men on bags and it began to look {nteresting. The crowd wavered buck towards the benches. Fatal Errors Lose Game. But B. Jones, pitcher, came up and struck out—one, two ,three. mell for tho gates, watchiog the dlamond as they went. It was Prestton's bat. He bad seen first bese once during the game This time he knocked a pop-up near the initial bag. Calboun stood with his big mit. and waited for the ball to descend. It rolled out of his pillow to the ground and a horror-stricken gasp went up from the watchers. Radeliffe had scored on the error. They wero transformed. From the bappy mood borp of a certaln victory they plunged into all the anxiety of a And well might they be. Three mer on with the redoubtable sticker McHale at bat, the man who had made two hits on both Monday and Tuesday. But it was no safe one that the catcher knocked at the critical moment yesterday. It wi long fly to Fleming, the mah who never misses. This time he dropped it. Frisk scored. tie- fog the tally. Thus, the second chance to win was lost. One more remained. It wi 2 to 2, and If Omaha could end this disas. trous half there was a good chance to bat out a victory yet. Two men still on bases, and Alloway let Delebanty walk to first and fill the bases ‘ups - it ‘lodked hepeless now. for Bill Ev- eritt was to bat, and he can out-hit even McHal But Alloway strained his every nerve, and all that Everett could do w to knock a grounder to the infleld. MeAn- drews played for it, and fumbled misera- bly. Preston scored, and McHale was mak- ing fast for home. But by that time Toman bad secured the ball and by a quick throw to Gonding ended the misery. It was 3 to 2, and the Omabas were un- able to get 80 much as a single hit in their half. That ended everything. Disconsolately the well-known players slouched off the fleld. Six of them could not have helped it, but they all felt badly. To Calhoun was really due the loss of the game, as his cbance was the first and easiest. The features of the playing by Omaha wero the hitting and Toman's all around work. It seemed as if the boys couldn't kit singles off H. Jones, the ex-National leaguer. Nothli but doubles would do. Gonding made & three-bagger that would have been four but for verv fast and fine fielding by Preston. Wins Glory. Jimmy, Toman was a star. He led the batting with a double and a single, and his felding was perfect Some of his assists might easily have falled to arrive at firet in time had he not flelded with a rapidity seldom seen. But it is all off now till next year. Score: Toma INVER. DE: AB. I3 B [3 0 0 Preaton, McHale, c. r\ol-hnntf, . Everitt, ib.... Jones, of. Dundon. 3b. Radeliffe, ss Frisk, 1it,... B.
