Senators Fall To Beantown Nine In Wild Grounder Night

In yesterday's South End game Stivetts and Esper were hit hard as Washington committed errors by Sullivan Farrell and Stricker. Esper faded after the fourth inning allowing homers and a triple. Boston fielding kept Stivetts from disgrace, with Wise and Farrell forming the core of a frisky, if costly, fraternal display. The contest featured slow play, miscues, and a back-and-forth scoring sequence ending with Boston defeating Washington by a margin built on early four-run burst and late surges.
