Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose, and sometimes, well, you just scratch your head and wonder what the hell happened. Last night, with a share of first place on the line, the Blue Legs rolled to an 18-5 win over the Haymakers. The Legs' Old Hoss Radbourn had a bit of an off-game on the mound, but he looked like Sandy Koufax compared to Rube Waddell and Jack Chesbro, whose combined ineptitude allowed the Blue Legs to score a league-record 18 runs and a 13-run margin of victory -- not surprisingly, also a record. Jimmy Collins, third baseman for the Blue Legs, hit two home runs, including a grand slam, in the victory.
