Wheeling wins game. Just think OF
Il, The Victims OF an almost uninter-
rupted string OF defeats have at last
braced up and yesterday afternoon put
up as good game OF ball as any crank
in the town would desire.
daryey, the auhurn-topped young
man who has bene so kind to opposing
batsmen almost since the season be-
gan, was in an altogether different hui
NOR and actually declined TO let Cookies
men have more than eight safe drives,
while the Nailers negotiated with Herr
Herr to the extent of thirteen. with a
total of twenty-three bases.
And, speaking Of the hits made by
the home team, old "Home Run Rob-
Inson was In his Kenton form, In four
times at bat he cracked out two home
runs. a two-bagger and single. be-
sides working to first base on four wide
ones. Close behind him came Carney
with two singles and a three-oagger-
preety good stick work for a pitcher.
But RED" has seen so many safe drives
made In front OF him recently that he
ought TO be able to crack out few
himself.
For several innings the game was q
beauty, with the scores few and far
apart. The visitors managed to score
ono IN the opening inning. kim led of
with hit for a pair of bases, but Fitch
was an out to Carney. o'Mearn was an
out rom DIESEL TO o'Brlen. Kihm start
cd for third and O'Brien's bad throw
10 DIESEL allowed him to come home.
In WheelIng's half OF the first. after
Lytle's out, O'Brien walked and Robin
SON singled, but the next two batsmen
struck out, making three strike-outs for
Herr In the inning.
The locals got men on bases in sue
ceedIng innings, but they were not got
around the circuit Of the bases until the
Alth. when the homo team went one
ahead and was never aaain headed.
With Garvey an out, Lyle was safe on
Kihms error. OBrien was an out the
second, but Robinson caught one Of
Hers swift ones to his taste for q no
mer over left field fence. Il was O beau
tlful drive and the "home runner" was

his work.
In the seventh. the locals cllnched
their lead. Carney led on with hit,
Lyle followed suit, o'Brlan was an out,
but Robinson's single brought In the
run. Bradley was the second out, but
Campbell was safe on Babbs error
The third run was brought in on Deis-
els single. In the eighth three more
were scored. With Messett out, Gar
vey surprised the natives by hitting for
three bases and scored on Fitch's bad
throw to Rabb. Lyle made his second
safe hit and plIfered second, while
0Brlen was getting put out. Then
Robbie came up and was loudly called
upon for another homer. Robbie is moth.
Ina II not an accommodating sort OF fell
low. so Il was not surprising that he
sent one into the back river for the
four bases.
Fort Wayne made matters interest
ing In their half OF the eighth. by scor-
ing thrice. With one out, Fitch singled
and O'Meara's homer over deep center
contributed TO two earned runs. Then
Tom Campbell was safe on Garvey's err
ror, but was forced out by McKevltt In
an attempt at n fast double play, how
ever, Bradley threw mile and a half
Wide and Mac was perched safely on
second when the smoke cleared. sharp's
single scored aIcKevitt. Babb was CIV
en- a base on balls very Judlclously by
Garyey, and chances taken with Herr.
The best the blonde twirler had In shop
was a grass cutter to Delsel and that
young man knew his business to the ex-
tent OF putting his No. Q on third bag
forcing out Sharp and retiring the side.
In the ninth the visitors were not at
all dangerous. Darby and Kihm were
outs to O'Brien unasslsted. Then Brad
ley Juggled quite dexteriously with the
sharp liner sent him by Fitch and the
little 'un was safe. o'Meara looked
dangerous-he had already knocked out
homer and was the hero OF another
Garrison finish here recently-but Gar
vey put on steam for his particular
beneit and the ex-clevelander figured
IN a strike-out.
