TONOPAH GIVES
Miners DRUBBING
SWAT THE MINERS ALL OVER
THE FIELD-SCORE
10 TO 3
(From Tuesdays Daily

Hup administered the WOfS
defeat to the Miners Sunday tina
they have sustained this season. The
result was lever in doubt from the
very first inning. The heavy-nlttinl
Goldfelders werei unable to hill
OBannion when hits would have
meant runs, while on the other hand
the Mizpahs found Westhall for
many swats. The final score at the
end of the game was 10 to 9,
The day was ideal for the fans,
and the ball players and at least
1000 people were at the game, many
Tonopah faces being scattered
through the crowd. 1t was certain
ly Tonopah's day to yell and the
noise they made could be heard clear
to the malapai. And when the
buses started for the train the boys
gave the 0 time and time again,
and brought the G~oldfelders to their
doors with their cheering. A differ
ent umpire was put in Sunday and
his decisions gave satisfaction
throughout the game.
The run getting started in the
third inning for the Miners and they
managed to shove over one run.
Tonopah sen three men across the
rubber in the fifth on a walk, three
hits and a wild pitch. In the sew
enth inning Hoag got his second
long drive, scoring Mullen, and
crossed the pan later on Gray's hit
over second. Goldfeld scored two
in their half of the seventh on MUIR
rays error.
In the ninth inning the Goldfield-
ers went to pieces and FIVE men
scored. Mcdonald walked. Mullen
sacrificed him to second. Hunter,
Hoag and Gray found Westhall for
clean hits. Lundy missed an easy
fly off of Platt's. bat allowing two
men to OBannion walked
and Agnew came through with a
hit. The Tonopah crowd in the
grandstand were having their inning
with a vengeance, and led by Puddy
Grimes the rooters for the home
team made more noise than is heard
at a college football game. The
Miners tried hard to do something
in the ninth but OBannion just
toyed with the ~Goldfielders and re-
tired the side without a run,
AS in Saturdays game the Tono-
pah club outbatted, outfelded and
outgeneraled the Goldfeld team,
and the Tonopah batteries are
stronger than those of the Miners.
O'Bannion twirled a perfect game,
although he tore the nail from the
second finger of his pitching hand.
He is better now than at any time
in his career as a box artist, and he
will certainly land a berth with one
of the Pacific Coast league teams
next year. Hoag was an important
factor in the game, getting three
hits and amusing the crowd with
his gingerly playing. Captain Hun
ter was almost put out of commits
sion in the third by being hit in
the head with one OF Westhall's fast
inshoots. Saturday, Hunter was
hit in the jaw which almost knocked
out his front teeth.
The Tonopah team showed up we'll
in all departments of the game in
the last series and at the present
time are as strong as any semi-pro-
fessional nine in the West. The
Tonopah fans are with the team
to a man and when the Carson boys
come here, the crowds that will turn
out will be greater than the crowd
at the game in Goldfeld Sunday.
