Colorado Springs Wins.
In the game of ball yesterday
between the Colorado Springs
league team and the Union Pacifies
resulted In a score of five to ten in
favor of the former. The cyclone
occurred In the first luntng when
the locals made three costly crrorB
and. the visitors pranced around the
diamond bIx times. But for this
unfortunate inning the game would
have been an excellent exhibition
of faBt ball.
The game was somewhat of a
"lugging match, the visitors mak-
ing nine nits, two ot which were
three baggers, off of Pendergraft
and the locals ten off of Gaston.ouc
one of which was a two bagger and
two three-bagger. Gaslon'struck out
six and Pendergraft five. The
Coloradoans were chargeable with
four errors and the locals with four.
The feature of the game were
fly catches by Maryott, Blaine
Kitzmlller and Cope, Burman be
hind the bat for the locals played
a great game.
Some in the audience were in
clined to think that the visitors'
errors were Mioss" plays, but in
this they were mistaken; league
nlavers make errors as well as
ft j
amateurs.
The score by innings:
Colorado Spriugs-G 04000000
North Platte 3 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 1
