WAS FULL OF THRILLS

Wrens End Their Season By Defeating Strong Brook Team. Score at Close 6-7. The game Friday, be'.ween ths Wre. s and Brook was a record breaker. Before the largest crowd that ever witnessed a base ball game in Rensselaer, the Wrens finished in grand style. The game was replete with thrilling plays, keeping the huge crowd at fever heat.

The Wrens found Corbett early, and got two runs in the second frame, and two more in the third. Brook was unable to do anything along the scoring line until the fourth. Then for three straight rounds they capturde two runs, giving them a lead of two over the Wrens. Then it was, the home-bugs got busy and turned loose the favorite noises of fandom. But there, also, Dobbins tightened up, and with the aid Of some brainy plays did not allow the contenders to make another score. In the eighth stanza Spencer first up for the Wrens ripped out a two sacker. Parcells got first on short stop’s error. Then“Pa" Swartzell banged a single, scoring be th Spencer and Rue. Thus was the score tied up. Nothing doing in the ninth, and when the extra session opened, many thought the Whens were up against the old luck, that had dogged them for so long. But Brool failed to count, and the Wrens did. Thereby hangs a tale. The game was thusly won: Spencer again first up, went out by the second baseman route. Parcells whiffed. Swartzell singled. “Peach” Morgan then handed one to Wickwire in right which he couldn’t touch. Swartzell stretched it out and connect up for the run that won (he bacon. There were double plays, and many things that made the spectators gasp with surprise, and the true-bellevers at home had cause to rejoice when we were ahead and again when we tied the score, and yet again in the tenth when we did things that counted. Brook and her following felt very fine tor about two Innings when they lead us two runs, but they are entitled to that. \ • Rensselaer made 6 errors, but Brook got eleven. Dobbins struck out eleven batsmen, Corbett got eight Brook got six hits off Dobble, while the Wrens captured nine. The team has disbanded, and the stuff turned in to Manager Scott It is to be hoped that much interest will be shown next year, and the team get an early start
