Hines of the Providence Club made a queer calculation Sept. 30, when playing against the Buffalos. Previous to the game he took a score-book out of the hands of one of the reporters and wrote “one home-run,” and then made a mark over the fifth-inning column to indicate at what stage of the contest he would score it. Sure enough, in the fifth inning he knocked the ball over the left-field fence, and came home on the hit.
