Tuesday, May 22, 1877, vs. St. Louis Brown Stockings (11-5 tied for 1st place in the Liberty League)

We are now tied with St. Louis. This game is for sole possession of first place.

Fred Cline, St.L. (35 R 7-5 2.93) vs. Abe Everette, Troy (28 L 7-0 1.28)

Lost - 10 to 3

8 game winning streak is over and so is our short taste of first place. They pounded Everette around like a rag doll today. He gave up 11 hits and 8 runs in 5 innings and then I let Billy Jenkins finish up. He did okay, striking out 3 in a row at one point. St. Louis only made 2 errors. CF Yale Molloy had 2 hits for us with a double, scored a run and knocked in 2. C Eb Burke knocked in the other run with a triple. Not exactly our big guns, those two. Our big guns did nothing much to be excited about.

Other Games:
Washington (4) at Philadelphia (5) in 10 innings - Charlie Moss (7-9) over Dick Wheeler (1-3) in relief of Cal Wright. For the second straight game Washington scored in the top of the 10th inning only to lose in the bottom of the inning. 3B Jim Ware tripled in the tying run in the 10th and scored the winning run on a passed ball by new Manager/C Al Cannon.

Boston (11) at Pittsburgh (10) - Charlie Morlock (6-4) over Bones Lane (6-9). 2b Bill Thompson had 3 hits with a triple, stole a base, scored twice and knocked in 2 and made 2 errors. SS Paul Fenner had 3 hits with a double, stole a base, scored twice and had an RBI.
