High School Played Tie Game With Delphi Wednesday.

The high school baseball team clashed , with Delphi for the second time this season and were awarded a draw after eight innings of battling at the Delphi park Wednesday afternoon. Each team had one run when Rensselaer was forced to quit in order to catch their train. Each team got five blows. Delphi scored first but the locals tied it up in the fourth when Hollingsworth walked, stole second and rode home on Eigelsbach’s two baser. Delphi scored their lone marker on a hit and a steal and a wild throw. Rensselaer was accused of dirty playing when Babcock went to bat out of turn, but it was unintentional and Babcock and Moore, who had fiaield to bat were both promptly called out. Being accused of dirty ball playing at Delphi is now huge joke when the criticism comes from a town with the reputation Delphi has in the way of dean ball playing. Believe us, we have had experience in that town, and if you get any more than is coming to you by the officials there you should be elected to the hall of fame. At the track meet held in Monticello last Saturday it appeared to the spectators that the Delphi management was running the meet entirely and that Monticello and Rensselaer had no say so whatever.
