FAIRFIELD DID EN-.
It Took II Innings, But Belfast Had
to Surrender.


Fairfeld's revamped team took little
stroll down Belfast way, yesterday, and
while in the little seaport town bumped
up against the team that has been giving
Waterville so much trouble of late. II
was a sort of Greek meet Greek bump
al that and one of the prettiest fights ever
seen on the Belfast grounds resulted. 1t
took ii innings to decide it but at the end
OF these Fairfield had Belfast down and
was sitting on them.
The first report to reach as far down
as this stated that it was Belfast's game
by a score of to in 10 innings and no.
tees to this effect were posted in Water
vile. But the next wave had an alto
gether different story to tell and what
proved to be the correct one. 1t was Fair
fields game by Il score of to ).
Bushey was in the box for the visitors
and pitched a fine game. He came dan
gerously near dropping it in the third inn
ing by scoring three men on a wild pitch
with the score to in Fairfelds favor.
But he started the 18th inning with a
triple and was followed by two singles
and the game was won. 1t was a tough
fight and shows that Fairfield has been
doing considerable battening during the
past week or two.
Belfast had new man from New Lon
don to offer in the box, and he lasted for
nine innings. He evidently contracted
for nineinnings games, for he dropped
out then and was replaced by German
who finished the game. Fairfield batted
well and played fast game all through
The new men-McHugh at shortstop
Sherriden at first base and McGovern De
hind the bat--showed up well
McGovern is known to Fairfield enthus-
lasts as he played on the team two years
ago. Last year he was backstop for the
Roses of st. John, and has been in the
Eastern League, this year.
