Ninety eight was supported in its cheering by firecrackers, tin pans, pistols, shotguns, and a brass band, while ninety-seven was aided by a small cannon which was planted near first base, and innumerable horns. But the noise did not seem to disturb the players on either side very much...

Walker might have had a few more put outs to his credit if he had kept his foot on the base, but he redeemed himself by making several difficult stops, thus saving several men from getting errors.

Walker also got a base on balls, and stole second, but Cozzens left him there by hitting to Beale...
