Mort Dyer pitched the first four innings for Lowell, and while he pitched a good game the colored gentlemen found him readily, and owing to several errors tho visitors scored one in the second Inning, two in the third and one in the fourth. Pitcher Irwin went in the box in tho fifth and while he could not prevent them from hitting the ball, he was given good support, and one run in the seventh and one in the ninth was the best the "Giants" could do, but things looked serious for the locals several times.
