DECIDING GAME GOES
TO BUSCH'S TERRORS
Doc Ayers Does a Marathon Unnecessarily, Af?
ter Which He Is Slammed Good and Plenty.
Many Extra Base Clouts Help
Goobers Win.
BY GUS MALBERT.
Pctersb?rgl Va., July 31.?Of course, it may hot have had any?
thing to do with the final result, but Doctor Ayrcs, now owned,
lock, .>-tuck and barrel by Clark Griffith, manager of the hopeful
ivationai outfit, i'"r.U"t yesterday that lie was a star fjinger and en?
gaged in a Marathon with John Raley. along about the middle ol
the game with tho Goobers, doing a good hundred yards in as near
nothing a- possible; and after that performance, which drew
plaudits from the multitudes, lie came hack tu earth, recollected
that {i?rling was liis- particular forte, an.I attempted to fool Hein?
rich Gottscidank Busch out of a hall game.
We lost, 5 to 3.
Again A ver-"- run may have had nothing;to do with it, but the
damned spoi which will n?'t "tit is that he was hinged and dinged ;
and biffed all ever the yard, not for measly little singles, mind
you. hut for juicy doubles and triples and even a circuit whack
iinmcdiatcy after Iii-; race. Alan age'r. Steves tried to Help $6iiic\vhat
by w.-Mii<r the hall away in order t" give his $1,506 prize a chance
t.. gel hi- second wind, so to speak, hut the second wind had
drifted carelessly to the outfield. Once we realh did tie the score,
hut it created so much unfavorable comment fit'in the sports of
Cockadcviiie that we were in honor bound obliged to let them
crawl to the front again.
Brookes i.rt* th,- Recall, C
Harvey Brook'1?, from the goodly
ciiy of w?st Pblrit. pot himself, 'n
trouble in the c'ghth. was yanked,
arid Blondcy Morganroth was again
sent to the rubber to cheek tlic onward
li.arch of the Colts. Tor the second!
l ine In three days he accomplished his
?purpose, and the game which was
knotteil by Grlflln in that Inning by
i.ddii.g two runs to the total 6< one
which had been annexed during tho
preceding engagements. remained
where It was so far as Richmond was
concerned. Morganroth was troubled
?ith Just three Colts i:i the ninth
and concluding box. haying the easiest
time of his young life.
However, somebody bad to lose arid j
somebody had to take the deciding;
game of the series. It went to Pi tors
burg, and knowing that anything but I j
victory would have caused harsh feel-I
lugs, it is just as well that theytI
won one of these days somebody Is I
going to find some umpire who will
please the Petersburg enthusiast. But]
he will have to be a man who can;
fee nothing but Petersburg nnd who
will give every decision favorable to
the home club. They arc the most
rabid, the most arbitrary, the most
biased, the most hard headed set in the
v..rid. In the game to-day Cowan I
was called every name in the lex'cOp '
ot the ii-th. r world, and some nt the
Petersburg bail players Invited the'
