his best and let Sharon down with
: four scattered hits.
Manager Van sent Mock to the
mound and II was not the left
handed twirler's fault that the
! visitors did not make a better
showing. Mock pitched good con
ssteut ball all through the run
lining but the support afforded him
twas away off color. Marion only
collected six hits off the south
paw but these coupled with errors
were easily converted into as many
I1ns.
Outside the work of the two slab
artists there were not many fea-
lures Of an unusual nature. Jimmy
Blake pulled off a play in left
that brought the crowd to lis feet
in the sixth when with Mock on
third and Kerr on first he stabbed
Clever's long cloud disturber
his glovcd hand while on dead
run near the fence. The play
retired the side and saved two
runs from scoring Tommy Mylett
at short also had his busy day"
sign swung to the breezes. Thomas
covered all kinds of territory and
pulled down some swats that were
tagged for hits.
From the drop of the hat until
the last SharUnite had been put out
the visitors didn't have lock in.
II was one, two, three all the time.
Both Fox and Mock worked fast
and the game was played in one
hour and five minutes which beats
all records for short games ever
made in the Ohio and Penn. league.
Marion lost not a moment i'm get

ball was returned Blake had pitch |
ed his tent on sack No. 3. Bill

went out on a pop fly to McLaif-
erty.
Then for six innings Sharon hand |

lection Of goose eggs. In the sev-
enth Marion 5 scoring machine be-
gan 10 work. Farrell first drew ND
four bad ones and was placed on |
second by Dithridge's sacrifice. Dau- |
bert balooned to Clever and as
Hilley had fit over Floods swat

Hllley and again he booted as Far

nose and Timothy romped home as
The crowd yelled with joy.
