After u short iutormissioD, tho sea
ond game was begun. Weeks did tho
pitcbiug for Norfolk, und did excellent
work, striking out seven men and only
.allowing ouu base ou bulls. Lloyd',
lor the Lloaiiokos, was lunched up for
twelve hits, while Weeks only allowed
the "magicians" the small sum of live.
This game was not played out, as the
first garni', buiug au eleven inning
ouc, took up quite u good deal ol lime
allotted to the regular game. Only
eight Innings were played, wiieu dark
nuss luterlerrcd. It was u nicely
played game, and nut lor a few
"kicke'' on Umpire Norrie, everything
passed off smoothly.
Norris cannot lie raid toTie aOaH'uey
OX Fmtdie, but those who saw him nib
date believed bo did Iho liest he knew,
bow utni were satisfied with his woi
for when cries were raised by u fi
"knockers" in the stand to take him
out, thu liest class said let him remain,
Itoauoke tried hard to detent the
"Crows," but to no avail, as Toto hau
inserted an extra tjuautity of ginger
into his men and they show it in their
lively "get at 'em" spirit. Uelow will
bo seen bow we captured the second
game, ntid thereby stand one point of
