Ward's Cup of Sorrow A Sorrowful Exhibition by His Men

A Chicago crowd watched a star-packed Continent lineup stumble in both games at Eastern Park. Boston dominated defensively, with key misplays and base-running errors limiting their opponents to a single run in game one. Staley, Griffin, and Burns drove the Brooklyns' offense as Boston clinched a 5-1 victory, while the second game swung late as the home side surged with fielding errors by Brooklyn and late offensive support from Lowe, Stovey, and Foutz to win decisively. The doubleheader illustrated poor baserunning, clumsy plays, and strength from Boston's defense and bats.
