One of the largest crowds that has
ever assembled at the ball park wit
nessed the game yesterday afternoon
between the Radio and Cordova teams,
and the fans were kept on the anxious
seat until the last half of the ninth
inning, when the winning run was
made by the Cordova team, which was
victorious by the close score of 5 to 4.
It was a battle royal from the start,
and the greatest enthusiasm was mani
fested throughout the contest. That
the clubs are evenly matched and put
up an article of ball that appeals to
the spectators was evidenced by the
rooters, who liberally applauded all of
the good plays made.
The batteries were King and Corn
wall for the Radio and Weeks and
Steel for Cordova. Both pitchers put
up a fine article of ball, and had King
received the support he was entitled
to the score might have been differ
ent.
Aside from the work of the slab
artists, the distinguishing features of
the game were the brilliant playing
cf Koch at second and Dave at short
for the visitors, and Frederickson, at
third, for the home team. In one in
ning the latter had two assists and
one put-out to his credit.
The run-getting started in the sec
ond inning, when a Cordovan crossed
the home plate. The Radio club tied
the score in the third and made an
other tally each in the fifth and sixth.
The score then stood 3 to 1 in their
favor.
When Cordova came to bat in the
sixth it piled up three runs and led
by a score of 4 to 3. In the eighth
the Radio again tied the score by get
ting one run across the home plate.
With one man out in the last half of
the ninth Cordova scored the winning
run by a long drive by Gilbert.
The following is the score by in
nings:
Radio . 00101101 0—4
