However had It not been for the off. color 'fielding of Mensor, a Pendleton enstotf on the Pippin lineup, the game uleht have resulted differently, for that player's laziness was directly r;- iponalble for three runs. Maxmeyer, Barry's eccentric twlrler "ersced'' the slab for the visitors, and was no more liberal with bis bits than his opponent, but wag not ac corded the superior support which was given Etcbanay. Pendleton earned the first run in Ihe second, by Wilson's triple and a double steal. Another came In tbo third, by a pass, a single, and Men sor's boot. The Pippins tied the score In the fourth by connecting with Et- chandy's curves for a double, a triple and a single. Games Goes In Ihe Sixth. In the sixth La Grande dropped in.! game.
