They faced it as a team that had won many a game in the ninth with two men out. Dugan could do nothing with the Rube's unhittable drop, for a drop curve was his weakness, and he struck out. Hucker hit to Hoffer, who fumbled, making the first error of the game.
Besides, it's agin' my principles. I've never knocked nothin' down, not even a skittle, since I joined the Peace Society. "Now, ladies an' gents, the next thing I've got to hoffer is a harm-chair. Hand up the harmchair, Jim."
We'll make him another hoffer for a regular substantial family harrangement " "A family arrangement, eh?" "Yes; that's the way they always manage things when great family hinterests is at stake.
She's terribly taken up with a with a no, I can't call it a job, with an offer she's had." "An offer! Do you mean a real offer?" cried the girls together, with excitement, both in a breath.

Hoffer leaped across and plunged down, getting his gloved hand in front of the ball. The hit was safe, but Hoffer's valiant effort saved a tie score. Lane up! Three men on bases! Two out! Not improbably there were many thousand spectators of that thrilling moment who pitied the Rube for the fate which placed Lane at the bat then. But I was not one of them.
But it won't; and therefore you must make him another hoffer." "Another offer!" "Yes. He'll know well enough that you'll be thinking of his death. And for all they do say he might pop off any day." "He's a younger man than me, Aby, by full ten years." "What of that? You may pop off any day too, mayn't you? I believe you old fellows don't think of dying nigh as hoften as we young ones."
