WEB GEMS- Top 1st: Steve Brodie robbed Patsy Donovan of a Homerun!

Duke Esper tossed a complete game shutout and Steve Brodie had 4 hits and 4
RBI as the Pittsburg Pirates were badly beaten by the seemingly unstoppable
Baltimore Orioles, 14 to 0.

Brodie had a big day at the plate.  He laced a one-base hit scoring a run in
the 3rd inning, tripled bringing home two baserunners in the 4th inning,
tripled in the 6th inning and tripled which scored a run in the 8th inning.
Baltimore simply wore out the Pittsburg pitching staff, scoring in 6
different innings.  

It was the 3rd shutout of the year for Esper(11-5). Charlie Hastings(4-6) was
the loser.  He allowed Baltimore 14 runs in 8 innings of work.  

Baltimore added another win to their now very impressive winning streak. Ned
Hanlon was thrilled following the game -- 'We're really on a roll now.  These
guys are playing their hearts out and I couldn't be happier for them!'
