THE BEE, OMAHA, WEDNESDAY, MAY 20, 1914. More Proof that the Game is Honest SS. By Hal Coffman TIP TOPS ARESLAUGHTERED Falkenberj- Toys with Brooklyn While Mates Stage Swatfest. RESULT 18 FIFTEEN TO TWO DOTE GLIDE IN THE MOD 'Leaver Swimi Out, of Ninth Inning ' One Run to Good. I R-ouT l have warned j a OMAHA SIX TO BEARS' SEVEN Umpires Watch Content itIUi Fiend. Ish Glee and nan Dp laundry nilU for the B-raahlnK Contestants. ' Whilst the soft nnd glistening rain drop, which, it might be iwld. in passing, wero exceedingly Vet little raindrops, filtered through the murky atmosphere, two squads ot ball players pursued their ways around the diamond at Rourke park yesterday afternoon, much to the disgust of themselves and gleeful entertainment of the spectators and the umpires. It is 'presumed that the umps found supreme and blissful enjoyment in the proceed ings, else out ot the kindness of their ' hearts they would have called the pastlmo h the sixth or at least the seventh round. The score at the culmination of the ulti mate chapter was announced as 7 to 6 In Denver's favor, but what matters It who won under such conditions, The rain started to leak In the fourth inning. At that time Omaha was ahead. v gTh'o pattering drops soon put the blink on Ebson Closman, the modest little left hander and during the deluge which oc cupied tho lead column of the front paffa In the fifth and sixth, he let the nursed Grltzlles tickle the platter some five time. . The rain also put Mr. King hors da .1 combat for a brief couple ot Innings. said Innings being the sixth and seventh. Omaha copped two runs in each Inning and everything would have been heavenly ' if Grovcr, who entered the pastime in the .. seventh, vis: the rain's victory over Clos ' man, had not let a run trickle between 1 f rains. Tr g,t AVntchluR Them Slide. t. Why the umps permitted the contest to continue Is beyond, the power of human conception. Judging from the actions of Messrs. Gaston and Stockdale both are , superhuman gents. This probably ac--counts for it. The scattering ot bugs In . the stands didn't care particularly ""'whether th combat continued or not. Of . course It wan tea to watch the athletes - -skid about In tho grime, and, of course, .they couldn't go home and the grand stand was high and dry. Mr. drover was the best little slider In the bunch. This mud'Smeared athlete skidded around tho i jtwirler'i mound wltl) much skill, 11 fielded bunts while in a projected con ditlon and threw out runners with much eclat. In fact, he was one ot the niftiest little performers ot the afternoon. HI only regret Is that double price will be -charged to clean his uniform. ' ( The battle ppened with Omaha carry ing the old luck. Ward strolled In the ' second, was sacrificed by Congalton, and scored on Krug'a drive to left. In the third the Grizzlies were generous. With Shestak out. Kay bobbled Clos- p. rpan'a . grounder. When Schlpke hit to ' "king, that royal gentleman heaved wild jtp catch Closman at second. Clancy Bj5rced tho Skipper, who was In his ele ment In tho water, and Coffey threw 4',"badly to catch Thomason at first and jClosman scored. Nothing more was cobo uniu me aciuge in inn si-in. Caasldy la Jarred. Clancy and Thomason poked tout singles. Ward advanced each man on an infield . out, and everybody scored when Fayo , .'and Cassldy collided in right center as " ''they tried to capture Congalton's tly there. Cassidy bumped Faye and Faye bumped tho ground. He also bumped 1 .rjia head when Mr. Butcher came tearing -head first Into the melee. The right . finder was a bit hurt, but came back to the pastime regardless, .. Grover beat out an Infield hit In the ' seventh by virtue of a slow roller which King and Coffey couldn't cover because 1 pt .the superabundance of mire. Skip per Bill, the well-known aouatlo athlete, 'Jt busted Mtwo-bagger in the midst of a jdo. iipour. Grover being a some aquatic athlete himself, scored, Clancy fanned, but Thomason pushed one to left, scoring the famous aquatic athlete. This finished Jtfor Omaha. Denver got one in the fourth. A two .Backer by Butcher, slow fielding of Mitchell's fielder's choice left everybody safe. Coffey's two-bagger completed the sart. Ward's error, followed by Clancy's ''"error arid a two-bagger by Butcher brought In two In the fifth. Then 'Butcher and Coffey, who had followed ;itha single, started a double steal, which ended In Butcher scoring. King's ffiU Fare's ht end Closman'a bum peg tb the plate In the sixth let In two more runs for Denver. The winning run was j .made In the seventh when Butcher i walked, Mitchell beat out an Infield hit, Coffey sacrificed and Chasa failed to '.thrpw to the plate when Fisher rolled out Jpto him. 4 Today Topeka Inaugurates a four-day stay In.
