MARYLAND AGRICULTURAL COLLEGE vs. ST. IOHN'S. ST. JOHN,S, 7-M. A. C., 15. On May I2 St. John's journeyed to Maryland Agri- cultural College, and, sad to relate, was defeated by the score of I 5 to 7. It was the worst exhibition of baseball that St. John's has put up for several years. Gilbert started in to pitch, but was hammered so hard that our noble pitcher, Hilleary, had to succeed him. His pitch- ing was decidedly the feature of the game, M. A. C. being utterly unable to touch him. During his brief stay in the box he caused nine men to fan the air. But his coming into the game then was too late to save it. Following is the score by innings : INNING5' I 2 3 4 5 5 7 3 9 TOTAL- Three-BaseHits-H1LLEA1w,FLoRY.Two-BaseHits-BRADY, ST- .l0HN'S - .
