Baseball Rivalry Mixed with Omens and Oddities

Gumbert counters with tactics, but Windy City Prophets fall morose. The Pittsburgs avoid their mascot and struggle against Brooklyn, while Washington faces the Colonels in a pie named clash. Irwin’s men demand no plain bread.

Picnic Reflections Cloud Anson Eastern Swing
A Boston crowd watched Captain Anson at the picnic scene as Adrian’s plans failed and the ice cream melted. Timely hitting carried the day for the home team with Anson’s absence from cheer and a strong showing by Luby after being hit for six.
Stivetts Wild But Boston Wins With Stovey Power
In a high scoring baseball day, Boston breaks away with Stovey's multi hit effort and Luby's home runs. Gumbert is pummeled early as Anson’s Colts rally late but fall short. Long's glove shines with two key runs saved, while Stovey and Kelly each tally three hits. Canavan and Dungan contribute, but Boston holds distance into the eighth. Anson’s miscue in center adds a late note of humor as the Cubs fall behind.
