WE CAPTURE
A BOITH CAME
Contest Became Merry-Go-
Round After Second Inning
When Brouthers Was Chased
From Grounds.
The Albany Bibles copped the second
game of the series in Albany yesterday
afternoon from the Combacks by the
score of 18 to 7. The game was turned
into a farce when Manager Brouthers
was chased from the grounds by Umpire
VitteT as the results of an argument be
tween the two. It is claimed that ‘‘Babe’’
was in the right and that his “Umps,”
Vitter, was simply out after his scalp,
so to speak. Well, he captured it yes
terday, but “Babe’s” 'PStpidly growing
another and in the future he’s going to
watch it. The team was so switched
about yesterday that its hard to tell
which is which.
Well, Brouthers is back in the game
this afternoon and there will be no
chance for the local players to get rat
tled as they did yesterday, as they evi
dently did. that is. judging from the
mix-up in the line-up.
The htting of McDowell, Parker. Er
win. Wells. Durmeyer, Burgess and Ber
ger featured. A catch by Hanna against
the leftfield fence of Neyenhouse’s long
drive was also a feature.
