PEP SANDERS WORKS TODAY
Mora Ttvlrler, Defeated To
peka. Mill Battle Against Booat
rn la On Game of Donble
Header This Afternoon.
Mr. Jesse Garret, who, It must be said,
is a pretty good fellow and a' pretty good
pitcher despite the affliction of the front
handle, slipped one over on the Pes
Mninea Boosters yesterday with the able
assistance of his pards by the score of
11 to 6. Jesse held the Boosters to one
hit In the first six rounds, which Is con
siderable performance, but he loosened a
bit In the last three to let a couple of the
visiting athletes augment their batting
averages.
The most Important fact concerning the
frsy was the presence of several ancient
landmarks of the national pastime. The
list begins with Frank Isbell, the well
known manager. Kmerglng from the dug
out to occupy a conspicuous position be
fore the,. glare of the calcium, Mr. Isbell
deserted his usual decision away from
the grind of battle, where he may brood
over the past and present. Mr. Isbell did
Ills brooding on the first sack, as Tex
Jones, the able guardian of that corner,
was called home by reports that his wifej
and child were 111. A mournful figure
was Isbell on first perhaps the most
mournful figure In base ball but a man
of ways and means In this circuit for all
that.
Ve.teran Poles a Triple.
Mr. Isbell has committed base ball In
many parks In many leagues for many
years and he committed considerable yes
terday. In the eighth round, with two
on, he tottered weakly toward the well
known plate and pasted the first ball
flung at him by Jesse Garret to the re
gions closely adjacent to the flag pole in
center field. Isbell doddered weakly
n round the paths and made third base on
the swat, while the gents ahead of him
hustled homeward. Frank was stranded
on third, despite his earnest pleadings, by
his mates, three of whom went out to
Krueger either by whiff or foul..
Second among the ancients was Red
Andreas, long since thought to have been
deceased. Red, who. It Is reported, was
raised in a Sioux Indian camp when Lewis
nd Clark stopped at Council Kluffs, was
actively engaged in covering second base.
Red didn't do ao worse, in fact ha could
have done much-worse, and he should be
accorded unlimited, credit for coming
back to life again.' '
Lakaff Brutally Beaten.
Lakaff, alleged to be a pitcher, started
the battle for the Boosters. Three stanzas
and Lakaff was derrloked high over the
garden wall while Duffy hopped Into the
diamond to lead a forlorn hope. Inas
much as the Rourkes made four more In
the fourth off Mr. Duffy there Is no doubt
but what ho led a forlorn hope. Sad in
nings were the third and fourth, as a total
ut nine runs and nine hits will testify.
Garret, Krug, Krueger and Schllebner
contributed the knocks which spelled dis
appearance for Mr. Lakaff, while Thomas
lifted a sacrifice fly which helped matters
along. Dunlop. Krug, Thomason, Krue
ger and Congalton constituted the wreck
ing crew which did so- much damage to
Uuffy in the fourth.
Today two games will be played. The
first game will be called at 2 o'clock.
I'ep Sanders of the Ston will heave one
battle and Red Styles, the southern
beauty, will probably
Score:
