ADAMS DEFEATS STERLING.
Led by superior mound work by W. Huessmann, the Adams nine took Sterling into camp by a score of 8 to 3.
Although Adams was outhit 8 to 6, they worked the opposing pitchers for eight bases on balls and made hits when hits meant runs.
Eilers started on the mound for Sterling, but was disposed of before the first inning was over, as Adams took an easy lead. He was relieved by L. Boden, who pitched creditable ball, but errors caused him much danger. Huessmann struck out ten men, while Boden whiffed six.
