Monday, June 10, 1878, vs. Boston Red Caps (12-10 3rd in the Liberty League)

I decided to give Bobby Hubbard the day off and put Wash Horsfall back in right and move Stub Orlando to center. Bobby's bat has been even worse this year than last year when it as very disappointing. He's hitting around .250 without an extra-base hit. Moss is one of the guys he usually hits well, but he went O'fer on Saturday. Dave Taylor (and Abe Everette!) will be back next game and I think Bobby is going to find himself on a train to Rochester. If his fielding was up to his usual standards, I could live with a weak bat, but he is not getting to the balls he used to. And Stub Orlando looks like he can track down everything and anything within a five mile radius of the ball park.

Charlie Moss, Bos. (37 R 12-9 2.58 0.7/2.7 BB/K) vs. John Bendickson, Troy (26 R 15-6 2.19 0.7/3.0 BB/K)

Lost - 3 to 2

We cannot make more errors than the heavy-hitting Red Caps and expect to win. We made 6 of them and they made 3. We out-hit them 9 to 8. RF Wash Horsfall had 2 hits and an RBI. CF Stub Orlando had 2 hits and scored a run.

For Boston, ss John Kron only had 1 hit, but knocked in all 3 of their runs. 2B Bill Thompson had a hit in his 25th straight game.

Other Games:
Cincinnati (7) at Washington (6) - Jim Postema (2-3) over Bones Lane (4-18). Lane only gave up 6 hits in 7 innings, but Cincinnati scored 7 times off him. Postema struck out 6. 2B George Brantner had 2 hits, scored a run and had an RBI, but made 2 errors.

Brooklyn (5) at Providence (6) in 15 innings - Will Taylor (14-8) over Buck Richards (1-1) in relief of Pop Yurkovich. Both teams scored a run in the 12th. CF Lou Landaal had 3 hits with a triple, a walk, scored 3 runs, including the wining run in the 15th, and had an RBI. 2B John Meredith had 3 hits with a double in the bottom of the 15th to end the game.
