Friday, June 13, 1879
Troy Haymakers (22-9 1st place) vs. Louisville Eclipse (12-19 7th place)

Who the heck scheduled a game on Friday the 13th? I don't want to play, but if I sit out, no one else will want to play either. I got a bad feeling about this one....

Ryther makes his 1879 debut after being injured since Spring Training. He was 2-0 with a 2.08 ERA last season for Brooklyn in one start and 17.1 innings. He was the Hurler Trophy winner in the New York State Championship Association in 1877 for the Pennant winning Syracuse Stars.

Buck Richards has been sent to Buffalo.

Ted Ryther, Lou. (25 L 1st start of 1879) vs. John Bendickson, Troy (27 R 15-6 1.62 0.7/3.3 BB/K)

Won - 5 to 4 in 12 innings

Bendy allowed 6 hits and struck out 2, but I had to pinch hit for him in the bottom of the 9th since we were losing. Yale Molloy led the inning off with a hit, his second in as many tries for the season, and with 2 outs, I knocked him home to tie the game. I tried to steal second, though, so Cowan could knock me in to win, but I got thrown out.

Abe Everette came on and he ended up with the win, pitching 3 innings and only allowing one hit.

In the bottom of the 12th, 3B Bill Rush led off with a single, but got thrown out trying to steal. I singled and stole second and went to third on the bad throw by C Doc Cole. After they walked SS Sam Cowan, 1B John Demick singled to win the game.

Ryther pitched very well for the first 7 innings, only giving us 3 hits and one run. His lack of conditioning, though, began to show in the 8th.

We made 6 errors, 2 by CF John Confair.

We had 13 hits and Louisville made 7 errors.

3B Bill Rush had 2 hits with a triple, walked and scored a run. I had 3 hits, scored 2 runs, had 2 RBIs and made an error. SS Sam Cowan had 3 hits, a walk, scored a run and made an error. John Demick had 2 hits. RF Spider Coleman had 2 hits and an RBI.

Other Games:
Providence (4) at Cincinnati (5) - Jim Postema (13-8) over Willis Kornfield (11-11). All the scoring was done by the 4th inning. Postema allowed 8 hits, walked 2 and struck out 4. Kornfield allowed 9 hits and struck out 2. Manager/CF Washington Mach had 3 hits with 2 triples, scored a run, had 2 RBIs and an error. Providence SS Sam Clark sprained his ankle and is expected to miss 2 weeks.

Worcester (8) at Baltimore (3) - Pop Yurkovich (7-14) over Sal DeVaux (0-1). Yurkovich allowed 3 hits, walked 4 and struck out 7. 24-year-old Sal DeVaux made his Liberty League debut. He allowed 12 hits, walked one and struck out 3. He had been 9-7 with a 2.31 ERA for Washington in the National Association. Baltimore CF John Froom pinched a nerve in his neck and will miss the next 2 weeks.

Utica (2) at Boston (11) - Charlie Morlock (12-6) over Tom Marshman (8-13). Morlock allowed 7 hits and struck out 3. LF George Zech had 1 hit, stole 2 bases, scored 3 runs, had 2 RBIs and made an error.
