ESSEX BASEBALL. 
Saturday Essex played the game at 
home, The Montserrats being the victims. 
Montserrat went to the bat first. Thev 
looked up as they took the bat—Fletcher 
was in the box. What would they do with 
him? The first appearance of Fletcher in 
the .box at all had been at the Dane 
Street game on the preceding Saturday. 
Then he had pitched the nine innings and 
had fanned the Dane Streets out in one, 
two, three order. Montserrat did a little 
better: First man struck out; second man 
out at first; third got a hit; fourth struex 
out. Essex went to bat. Hall in the box 
for Montserrats. He did very well, but 
when Essex were retired they had three 
runs to their credit. 
In the second inning Montserrat did not 
score; two struck out. Essex scored four. 
And so it was all through the game. 
Few of the Montserrats saw first and 
those that did were put out before they 
could score. Toward the last of the game 
Kssex let up on their play out of sheer 
pity. As it was, the score at the finish 
was 20 to 0 in favor of Essex. It might 
have been 50 to 0O just as well. All 
through the game Essex walloped the ball 
at will. Story and Wetmore got two- 
base hits, Fletcher a three-base hit and a 
home run. Umpire Heffiner’s decisions 
were fairly good. 
The ex-champions, North Beverly, were 
walloped by the Dane Streets to the tune 
of 4 to 1. 
The Champions, the Universalists, went 
down in overwhelming defeat before the 
Methodists—score 14-3. This puts Essex 
in second place in the race for the pen- 
nant of 1911. The standing now is: 
Won Lost Pet.
