...finest plays seen on Soldiers Field this year. In the first of the thirteenth Harvey sprinted to deep left centre and pulled down a hard drive of Wadsworth's. In the tenth Harvey made a swift and accurate throw to Currier off Young's hit that held Hamilton on third and gave Currier a chance to throw Young out at second. Dana and Aronson also did their share to prevent runs. With three on bases and one out in the ninth, Templeton knocked a fly to right field. A run seemed a certainty, but Aronson was so quick with...
...second and would have been a double if the bag had been covered sooner. Templeton was successful in stealing second as the throw was bad. Lambie then struck out, but Shons was safe on Simons's low throw to Brown. This placed Templeton on third and a double steal was immediately attempted. Currier threw to Simons to catch Shons. Simons ran him towards first and then threw to Brown, who returned the ball to Crocker. Templeton saw his opportunity and dashed for home.

Crocker made a good start in the eighth by a short hit over third base, but no one helped him to proceed around the bases. In the ninth Simons went out on a fly to the first baseman and Marshall, who was put in to bat for Hartford, was called out on strikes. Lanigan then hit to centre and Harvey scored him with a double...
