Orlasllee -High Scorra
All Aroaad.
DCNVICR. April . Denver took tlie
concluding Kims of the erle from Omaha,
t to 3, by hitting hard at the right mo
ment. In the first and second Innings
Sander passed the first man up and the
tint in each Instance made a three-bagger.
He then retired and Kenley took up the
work, but his fortunes were as bad, for
two long hits were mad before Denver
was contented with so small a thing as a
single. That lost the game.
Omaha hit well, though scattering, and
was after the gam at all times, only fall
ing because Adams was better In plnchee
than at other times. Th Omaha fielding
' was excellent, the two exceptions being
j when Corrldon ran away back of Kox when
the Infield had been playing In, and dropped
a high fly, and when Kley mad a bad
throw to catch a man off second. Corrl
dons fielding haa been a feature of the
i whole series, thlugh his hit today was the
' first he made her. Oondlng'a catching was
superior.
Denver also played a great fielding game,
Thompson making a wonderful stop of
wliat seemed to be a sure hit, and 8 peering
a difficult fly after a hard run. Weaver's
(MX was clean, his four being all surely
Lindsay also hit well.
hi the first Inning Banders passed Dolan
arid Kelley made a thre-bgger and In the
second he punned Thompson and Weaver
made a three-bagger, scoring on a wild
pitch. Omaha counted In th first on King's
three-bagger and Dolan's error and In the
seoond on s'nslr by Welch, Schlpke and
Shotton. ...:ha's othei run In the flftli
was made . ...mi Fox waa hit by a pitched
ball, Thorn, ..-.on made an error and Corrl
don's slunk ijrove In th run.
Against Keeley In th fourth, Lindsay
opened with a two-base hit, went to third
on Keeley s error and scored on McAleese'
long fly to center. Then Weaver made a
two-bagger and Adams and Dolan singled,
.bringing In the other run. Three hits gave
Denver one in the eighth. Score;
DENVER.
