Married Men Lose. /One of the most ‘'interesting5’ games ever played ou a Batesville diamond was the contest pulled off at the fair grounds Sunday between the married men and the single meo, the “youngsters” winning out—14 to 10.As several “better halves” of the married men were strongly opposed to their husbands engaging in such a dangerous sport as baseball, all players went by fictitious names, the married men being “dubbed” the “Professionals” and the single men the “All-Stars,” but as the game is now over we will take the liberty to give the lineuo of both teams, viz:All-Stars: “Chance,” J. Ben/., lb:“livers.” Oelrich, ‘2b: “Dunlin,” Boh-land, If: “Bush,” Wintz, ss: “Crawford.” Jos. Schroeder, 3b: “Paskert,” Graves, rf: “Ivliog,” Wtrnke. c:Reulbach,” Suttmoeller, cf: “Donovan,” W. Nickol, p.Professionals: “Lobert, Hughes,jf: “Wagner,*' Terry, s: “Matthew-Min,” Lightner, p: “Seymour,” Belter, cf: “Huggins.” Baas, 2b: “Carr,” John Schroeder, lb: “Steinfeldt,” H. Schumacher, 3b: “McLean,” Smith, c:“.Mitchell,*5 G. Schumacher, rf.“Wiid Bill” Donovan and Christie’; iMatthewson both twirled great ball, but the support of Matthewson was “slow,” as the majority of the men behind him had “other work” to do before “play” was called.The feature of the game was the great catch of “Hans” Lobert in left, who ran nearly six feet to catch thefast Hying sphere.
