i Worry, for they helned hhntter the old
'hick to labor one inning shorl of three full ball games
' nd at the end discover thnt nobody linn won the verdict and
thcro wns no chance to get the decision even in tlic newp
pnpers. Just the same, there must be some convolution
In blrenklng n record and playing so loug the game liad to
bo. called on n'ccouut of ilnrkui,. It ulo must be pleasant
to realize that after twenty -six innings another game of
nine Innings or more must be played to discover the
s. winner and the loser.
The former major lengue record was established in the
American Lengue on September 1. UM)t, when the Ath
letics beat the Kml Sox I to 1 in twenty -four innings. In
thnt game ouly two pitchers were used, .lack Coombs for
tho Mncks nnd Harris for Hoston. Thin was n remark
r able pitching performance, but it wns overshadowed by
Jloo OeKchger and Leon ('adore, who worked the entire
tvcnty-slx innings. Therefore, another tecord was
RtaaKhcd
1t seems strange that Oi-'chger should stumble into a
Jong-wlndoil buttle with Ilrookljn just one jrar and a
day after a blniilur exiierirnce. t)n April ItO of last i'iir
Joo pitched for the Phillies against Hrookl.wi, and the
Bnnle was called after twenty innings with the score tied
at 0 to 0, Hurlelgh Orimes hurled the entire gnme for
the Dodgers. Ocschgcr is qualifying for the iron -man title
in baseball.
After the sixfli inuiug on Saturday no scores Were
made, which menus both Oeschger and (.'adore twirled
shutout ball for twenty frames. That, too. is some ac
complishment, and should be recognized as such.
Hut one of the untiMinl features was the control of the
pitchers. Cadorc pitched to ninetj batters, walked tlve
and fanned six, while Oeschger walked four out of
eighty-nine and fanned seven.
ONLY a few ball rcrc hit out of the infield off
Ocschgcr, the outfielder getting but eighteen
of the. seventy -eight putniit. The Hrool.lin out
posts had a total of twenty-two.
Here Is the Longest Game in Baseball
I
S OUDBIl to settle all future disputes, allow us to
state thnt Snturdny's game was a
but NOT the longest contest ever stacd,- According to
'th'o miiRty old flics, which always are dragged out on an
occasion like this, the longest game ever played in base.
ball, no matter what class, was in Cleveland on .luly I.
3007, when the Hrooklyn Athletic Club and the Last Lnd
Stars battled for thirtv innings. Tliey were on the job
for five hours and fifty minutes, two pitchers were used
on. each side, Hrookl.wi made eight hits and Last Kml
pnly four. Hrooklyn won by the score of 4 to 1.
,N" That's the longest game on the records but some of
thfe oldtimers claim there was one which has it beaten
forty ways. During the seaon of lStJf a couple of tennis
played in Carrollton, Ky. The game started at 10 in the
morning and was called at (1 p. m. boruti f darkness
with only seven innings completed. Nobody knows a thing
about the score, but the game is mentioned in (ieorge
Moreland'.s "History of llaseball."
Now, on the itlier hand, while we are delving into the
dusty dope, let's take a slant nt the shortest games on
record. If a regular conflict is plujed in nn hour every
body is surprised nnd wonders how it happened. Unt
what do you think of a nine-inning ball game which was
played in exactly thirty two minutes?
Mobile wns playjng Atlanta at Atlanta on September
11), 1010. and Mobile won 1' to 1 in nine full innings, taking
tip ouly thirty-two minutes of the spectators time.
lTircc years later, on October 1. 10i:s. the Phillies and
tho (Slants tried to bctit the record in New York and
hustled through eight nnd one-linlf innings in thirty-three
minutes. That is the big league record, but the' brown
derby remains in the Southern League.
nillLAnKl.VHIA. established a wonderful record
on Autjuit 21. IRJ, in a game with I'loviiJcucc
at J'rovidcncc. With Jlannn pitchmq, Varrnr c
first and Ferguson at n and. the I'htls of the game
28 to 0, which it the largest xhutaut game plnyd
lit the major league. They also made the mail
errors, totaling twenty- ire, n in eight innimn.

Long Game Hurt Oeschger Last Year
BUT to get back to the present and drng in that
twenty -six -Inning gnme ngnlu. Oeschger must have
pitched wonderful ball, for the I title Id en bnd fifty-four
ptitouts. That meant most of the balls were hit on tho
ground, and not an extra-base w-nllop was registered.
Two tw(-baggers and a three-base blow were registered
oft Cadore.
Hnseball men nre wondering if the opposing pitchers
will be ns effective In the future as they were before the
long gnme. It Is believed that the strain wns too grent
nnd fenrs nre expressed thnt the men will feel the effects
of the long grind for many u day. If n pitcher worked in
three games In n single afternoon the fans would hae
his head examined; but here was a case where two meu
worked one inning short of three games.
It will be remembered thnt last year after that twenty
inning game lit the Phils' pnrk Oeschger hit the down
grade and did not recover all season. lie couldn't make
good with the (limits and was shunted to liostou, where
he started out better than ever before. Hurlelgh fSrimes,
his opponent, also had a bad season ami attributed it to
the overtime contest.
If Cadore happens to go (looie as a result of the game
Saturday one of the best pitchers In the league will have
been ruined. Stnlllngs will lose his hurling ace if Oeschger
goes bad. Therefore, what's the use of working n willing
horse to death? One pitcher tnld me it took him more
than n week to recover from n Hfteen-lniiing game, so
what should happen to one who traveled twenty -six?
.lack Coombs had u very poor season following the
tweut-four-iniilng game in Hoston, nnd Hnrris. his op
ponent, dropped out of the league. There are "many -nscs
where good pitchers have been ruined, and we iri'iieniber
one case in particular. In 11)14 Couuie Mack had a prom
ising youngster named Carrol Hrown. I J-.-- looked like a
world -neuter in the training camp ui:5 was expected to
make a big hit in the American League.

Oeichgcr feel nn ill effect like that.

Penn Charter Needs Points
It is by no means a certainty that
Penn Charter has the Interseliol itie
League tennis championship safety '
tucked away. The victory over West
Philadelphia had much tn do with the
present fortunate position of the
Quakers. Since that H-tnl! win. Coach '
Clinton Strong's proteges have been
winning their league matches hands'
down, fi tn 0 in the Ititerschohistie
League and (I to 0 In the Iiitcrncnliiiie
League. Penn Charter may not have .
its usual first-class baseball team, but I
when it comes to tennis the Quukers '
appear to be Invincible nnd nre now ,
establishing n record fnr conse. utive
wins which will remain for yean to
come. j
While there is no (piestion but that
the Yellow and Illue racket w ichlers
are about as good ns any In the city ,
and have been carrying off lnatih after
match, the title has not yet been
clinched. West Philadelphia could win
the championship in spltn of the ictory
Penn Charter scored over them in the
match which gave them a .'-to 2 defeat.
The championship is won on a point
basis. As long as both West Philadel
phia and Penn Chnrter continue to win
all points in all matches, the nice will
be as keen as ever.
Should Penn Charter lose a number
of points in one or two matches and
still win these matches, the result
would b- the chnmnlonshlp for West
Philadelphia, providing, of course, the
West Phillies succeeded in winning
their matches and not losing an equal
number of points. Penn Charter needs
points to win the title, not simply
matches.

that caused all the trouble.
Police came to the rescue nnd es
corted the "limp" to his dressing

busy nulling each other away from

the way of the mob.
The fans, in their anxiety to get

like wildcats and some were so heavy
that their weight smashed the roof

CROWDS AT LITTLE
LEAGUES' START
Bright Outlook Predicted, Judg
ing by Interest in Opening
Contests
The little baseball league inaugurated
the season nn Saturday afternoon, nnd
judging by the attendance at the games,
despite the cool weather, this year
promises to hang up n few records,
judging the interest shown by the fol
lowers of the many clubs. All those
swinging into action on Saturday were
industrial circuits, iilthough many of
the city's leading semiprofessiunnl ag
gregations lifted the lid.
Hut two games were played In the
Commercial League. The .1. & J. Dob
son Club ndniinistered n coot of white
wash to the Schutte-Kocrtlng Club by
the score of S to 0. Despite the one
sidedness of the totals, the losers at
times played fast ball, as was evident
by three double plays, which cut off a
number of runs. In the other clash the
Miarpless team, of West Chester, had
easy sailing with Westtnghousc. The
score wns 10 to '2, and evidently West
inghousc will have to bolster its llne
,ii p if it intends making any hcadwuy in
the ConOnercial circuit.
The gnmes with Disston nud II. (.
Dun were unplnyed, as the latter hns
withdrawn and Kennett Bquurc been
given the vacant berth.
The change came too lnte to get n
tenin together in time to meet the Snw
makers. The schedule will be revised
durjiig the week, us the Dun Club wns
a traveling one.
