GOOBERS IN GLOOM AS TIGERS CAPTURE SECOND OF SERIES they i.U into ? ;isy outs With liiert Oil bases and spoil..1 tho opportunity. In the first live innings there were seven men i?-j(t stranded on the hassocks, which partly explains tho defeat, it was tlue not so much to the strong ?ittiek of the visitors as It was to the weak attack of the tiomefoiks. The second count of the game and the last came to Ro?noke In the fifth. Newton lined to tight, was sacrificed by doe ICneaves and Bcored on Eftrd's clout to centre. .Sally Crelger deserv sympathy, not censure. He struck out seven, and with th< exception ot the innings in which runs came across, was absolutely airtight. it wits a tough game lb Idsc, but it was also a good one to win. Th. probability Is thai Busch will surely work liarvey Brooks back in one of the games to-doy, while II? :u. - peth, who has been resting several da? may work tin other. It will be tip to Burleson and Bert Gnrdin to win one or both of the games for Roanoke. Should oiii: of the games not be play ed and the Goobers win the one which is, then Petersburg win* if the Hosi? ers win one. game and the second Is tied, then the Goobers also finish in ft place. Hut :f Roanoke wins eith? er, the flag win go to tit. mountains. The greatest baseball crowd ever In Petersburg will be on hand to watch It whichever way It goes. The score: Petersburg. AB. P. H. O.
