GAINESVILLE Gets First Blood From Mari
eta by Score of to o.
By far the best game of ball seen on
the home grounds this season was that
played here Monday between Zanes-
vile and Marietta. By the wildness of
pitcher Armstrong, GAINESVILLE brought
two rms across the plate in the third
inning, those two being the only scores
made in the nine innings.
Marietta raped the ball frequently,
but their horseshoe was upside down
and the long drives always landed
snugly in some mans hands. Donahue
home club.
Big Bill Armstrong was a little wild
in the beginning OF the game and sent
several men to first base on balls, but
| lie settled down and did splendid work.
Re.sling, for the visitors, was in good
! form and had perfect control.
Following is the score:
