Show THE lii'IiD dAKi:. ffon by the Deserets, with. aSLoru of 21 to 10. On Thursday afternoon, the third of the Deseret Brown series wag played. A large number of people witnessed it. The start was not made until early 4 o'clO-'k, io cousequsncc of I the non-arrival of the regular umpire, j Mr, McLain consented to act, and did eo fr a short lime, when Mr. j Mackintcsh releived him. ! The resident clnb w?n tn tb Hat first and tbrougLj-it, ..h lw cietp-1 tions, did s-jiue good b.ittiug. Tae admira:ion of tbe s;.ectaiurs Bi; j loudly manifested, several times, m jMcKelvy; in three difirent inaing he tnide three-base hits and scored six runs without an out of the twenty-one made altogether. Gelding occupied tbe catcher's I position, but did uo. acquit himst-lf as satisfactorily as we have seen him, and at the bat was very unfortunate, J three strikes and out beiDg his luck jthree times. Addy did well; Snow !did not. Duke's batting was tip top, in the eighth inning two three-base hits being recorded to his credit; as short stop "he was there" every time. "Funk" is afirsttnse man, and safe player. He was out o' lucK, though, for, after taking b'a first on balls, sending a cenire-field fly, making a good two base bit, aod being run out on a forced ball, be scored only one run; but his assistance was valuable. Wheeler's pitching did not equal some of his former , edorts, and balls were called too fre-I fre-I quently. Barker, on second, was omnipresent, and did good service; at tbe bat he hit heavily. Bess made a splendid record, htrikiug well and taking ip a long fly at left field. On tbe part of tbe Denvers, it wae, evident, from the changes madedur- I ing the game, that they were over matched. Taree of their men, Moagber, Otero and Fowz pitched, and Decker and Hayes cached. Their first inning was a whitewash; in the second they scored five, on passed balls, nine-ball pitching, overthrows over-throws and errors; tbe succeeding in-cioi in-cioi were average ose3, there beiog nu remarkable strikes nor ruus to put down. In the filth, Blake and Otero wetit out on a nice double play; tbe latter bit a daisy lo Duke, who threw it to McKelvy od third, who, putting out Blake, se-ut tbe ball to Funk-bauer, Funk-bauer, ou first, excommunicating the striker, Otero. Three strikes and foul and uut prevailed, and elicited sympathy from the Iriends of the Browties. More muffing was done by them than during tbe two other games, and at times toey appeared to be "rattled." The score stood: 1234567S9 Deseret - - 1 1 2 6 1 1 1 7 121 Denvers - - 0 5 0 1 U 3 0 0 110 To-day's game, the fourth of the series, will undoubtedly be a warmly-contested warmly-contested one, and one that will interest in-terest lovers of tbe sport. |
