ELKTON OUT OF THE RACE. Rising Sun Wins Concluding 6ame i 01 The Series. l The return game in the great series between Bising Sun and Elk ton was played at Elkton on Satur day before another large crowd and ’ again the Orioles were victorious, | this time the score being 9-6. Like Monday the day was just 1 right for base-ball. Elkton’s stands and grounds were sorely tax- * ed to accommodate the crowd of “rooters.” It did not seem that ‘ the Labor Day contest had dulled J the interest one whit and Elk- ! tonians and their friends were well prepared to back their favorites with “long green” at even money. ‘ Bising Sun showed that quiet con fidence which so often lands the | unexpected victory. ' The birds surely landed on Elk ton’s giant pitcher in the first in- ] ning; and the moral effect of this 1 inning’s work went a great way 1 towards bringing home the game. ‘ Devon, the first np, was hit by a pitched ball and by beautiful base- 1 running went to third on a well executed bunt by Beynolds. Beyn- 1 olds then stole second and both he and Devon scored on Brickley’s hit, Brickley then scored on F. Hoover’s hit, the next three men were retir- i ed, and the inning closed with Bis- i ing Sun having three runs. They added another in the fifth, the score i being 4-0 at the beginning of the sixth, Elkton up to that time hav- : ing found Reynolds almost in- i vincible, gathering bnt three scat tered hits. In the three succeed ing innings Elkton managed to get four runs while in as many innings the Sun boys got two.* This was due to the fact that the lawyers began to hit Beynolds a little more lreely,Jwhile his support, especially in the outfield, was quite “yellow” at times. The ninth inning opened with the score 6—4. On one hit, the orioles were able to gather three runs, due to the reckless way in which the Elkton infielders handed the ball to one another, the favorite way l>eing to place it about four or five feet higher than it really ought to go. Elkton’s half of the ninth was also something of a nightmare for Rising Sun. A single, triple, liase on balls, and an error netted Elkton two runs; but Reynolds set tled down agai.n, the black clouds which had been hovering about the west during the afternoon began to break away, and soon the Snn was shining once more in all its bril liancy. The Hoover boys played bril liantly, accepting sixteen chances without an error. Devon figured greatly in the run getting, getting to first base four times. Johnson played a fine game at short, and Frank Brown’s catching was of a high order. Both teams hit the ball hard, Elkton doing a shade the heavier stick work. McKen ney was effective at times, but never so steady and consistent as Beynolds. Jobes’ umpiring gave general satisfaction. The crowd was well handled and everybody now feels at the end of these very important games that the result has been reached on merit and the best team won.
