BALL TEAM WINNERS
Sioux City Defeated By The Hard
Hitters From O'Neill.
SIOUX CITY PEOPLE DELIGHTED
'With the Professional Ball Played By the
Boys From Nebraska
Sioux Uity Times, Aug. v: 1 esieruay
wus a day after tbe baseball fan's own
heart. Two rattling good games, full of
brilliant plays and exciting situations,
were served up to him red hot at Rivcr
nide park, and he had a chance to root
and yell to his soul’s full content.
The Riversides were on the slate for
both games, but they could do no better
than break even. They met with a
Waterloo in the first game, O’Neill de
feating them by good stick work by a
score of 11 to 4. But in the game with
Coleridge the Sioux Cityhns had things
their own way as tar as scores are con
cerned, and they evened up Saturday’s
defeat by this team to the tune of 6 to 1.
A big crowd swarmed out to tbe park
to see the games, and it recalled the
good old times of league ball in Sioux
City. It was an enthusiastic crowd, and
it yelled until the grand stand roof rais
ed from its supports, and it amused
itself with good natured joshing. Every
body was satisfied, for with the excep
tion of an inniug or two the playing was
fast and remarkably free from errors.
The O’Neill and Coleridge aggregations
were largely constituted of the tame
players, among them several of north
eastern Nebraska’s stars.
A lucky lot of hits at the very opening
of the first game of the afternoon gave
O’Neill a lead pipe cinch on the victory.
The Riversides were unable to hit Noyes
effectively, but when the visitors came
to bat in their very first inning they
jumped on Jack Messerly’s delivery and
swatted the ball for a whole handful of
hits. When the clouds of dust that the
base runners tore up as they raced
around the diamond had cleared away,
and the yelling of the rooters had ceased,
the visitors had five runs to their credit.
But this wasn’t all: they repeated the
perfoimance in the third and slugged
Messerly’s curves for four scores more,
a total of nine, while the Riversides
could count only a meagre little single.
Messerly was in the box for the first
time this season, going there because of
the scarcity of box material in the ranks
of the Riversides, lie stayed for only
four innings, and in this time the Ne
braskans pouuded out nine hits and
scored four runs. On the other hand
Noyes was effective, and kept his hits
well scattered throughout the game, per
mitting only nine altogether off of his
delivery during the nine innings. After
the fourth inning Paul lloffman went
into the box, doing good work and keep
| ing the hits down to less than a half
| dozen.
The Riversides made their first rnn
in the second, when it looked for a time
as though they had on a batting streak;
but their joy was of only short duration,
they scored again in the fifth and sixth,
lu the seventh Bruggeman saved a shut
out by an elegant steal from Becond to
home on Gretchel’s out at first base.
After the fatal first and third innings,
the visitors were unable to get in more
than two runs.
Brilliant plays abounded all through
the game, and the fielding was close and
clean. Long flies were handled on the
run in elegant style, and the shortstop
and third baseman for both teams made
repeated good stops and quick throws.
O'Donnell carried off the batting honors
with two doubles and two singles.
Wood captured a double and a single.
Alberts made four singles and two runs.
Llanley got two siugles.
The lineup and score by innings were
H8 follows:
lliversiJes—McCarner, first base; Mar
tiu, second base; Muecke, third base;
Yeager, shortstop; Pecaut, left field;
Gretchel, center field; Youngren, right
field; Bruggetnan,catcher; Messerly and
P. Iloflmau, pitchers.
O’Neill—11. Morrison, first base; Zink
second base; Alberts, third base; Klefl
uer, shortstop; Stone, left field; O’Don
nell, center held; ilauley, right field;
Wood, catcher; Noyes, pitcher.
Riversides.0 100 11 10 0— 4
O’Neill.5 0 4 0 1 0 1 0 *—11
In speaking of the Suuday excursion
the Sioux City Times has the following
to say about the O’Neill contingent that
accompanied the ball team: ‘‘O'Neill
turned out the biggest crowd, Nearly
150 of its people came in to accompany
the crack O’Neill ball team and root for
it as it tried conclusions wi.h the River
side aggregation. They filled a section
of the grand stand and yelled like mad
while their team poun.led out a victory.
The remaining 250 excursionists were
pretty evenly divided among the other
I towns along the line of railway.”
Walt Rathbone has purchased a Fair
banks Morse Gas engine for his laundry.
W. H. Greeley was in the city Tues
day ou his way home to Vermillion, ».

The ball game yesterday afternoon
between O’Neill and Atkinson was so
slow and unintesesting that many of the
spectators went to sleep watching it.
Three of the Atkinson team were absent
and their places were filled by outsiders.
Atkinson played poor ball, so did O’Neill
aud at the end of the eighth inning the
score was as follows:
O’Neill.3 3 0 1 2 0 1—10
Atkinson .1 1 0000 2— 4
Sioux City Times: Will Whitfield,
formerly of Sioux City, was shaking
hands with some of his many friends in
this city yesteiday, having come over
with the O’Neill base ball team. Mr.
Whitfield has not forgotten what he
knew about base ball when he played
with the Little Siouxs and the Tutti
Frntlis, and he plays every once in a
while with the O’Neill team. He was
formerly in the employ of Davidson
Bros, and went to O’Neill for liis health.
