Show Base Ball. The Deseret and Rough and Ready clubs played a friendly match game of base ball on Washington square yesterday afternoon. It was perhaps the closest game ever played by these clubs, the score at the elose standing fifteen for tbe D's and fourteen for the R. and R's. The latter sustained four, and the former three whitewashes. white-washes. All things considered, it is no victory for the winners. It was an impromptu game on the part of the" R. and R's, who, before commencing com-mencing the game, had each performed per-formed a hard day's work in the harvest field, aud were therefore in no condition for ball playing. The losing club felt so elated with the result that they think they can win in an equal contest, and have therefore there-fore challenged the Deserets to a friendly match on Thursday afternoon. |
