Barring the first inning, the
game Tuesday between Wilmot
and the Milbank Woodman teams
was a dandy. After the fatal
first inning, when the Woodmeu
let IN four scores ON errors, both
teams played equal, each making
two scores on errors, resulting
6 to2 in favor of Wilmot. Wilmot
had four Indians in their team,
the pitcher, an Indian, was Q
clever, wide awake worker, and
made nopoor plays. both teams
played to win. A feature of the
game was the fielding of Frank
Kibbe. He made several most
excellent catches and was an
untiring worker, always alert IN
backing up second and the short
stop. One inning the Woodmen
caught one of Wilmot's men be-
tween I'd and Sd base. The Sd
basemen run the Wilmoter down
close to second and then threw q
a high, swift ball to second base
man who missed it but Kibbe
backing him up, made a high
jump and pulled the ball down
putting out the man on second.
Middlebrook made number Of
high catches. Up to the last in
ming the M. W. A. team failed to
reach the home plate. Ingold
was first to bat in the last inning.
While Milbank rooters had yelled
good during the game this was
the place where they broke out
afresh. lngold must make q
score and save a shut-out. He
put a nice little fly out between
I'd and 3d-maie first-worked
to second-Watson battea safe
[ngold made for home plate on
wild throw to first from the field.
The Wilmot boys were ratified
but it was not for long. Watson
worked his way home. The In
dian pitcher tended strictly to
business and while some Of the
rooters, mainly boys wenta little
!, too far in Cheir effort to rattle
him-he paid no attention, but
simply gritted his teeth and the
, story was soon ended.
The following is the way the
Odessa Tribune tells Of the re-
cent game of ball played at that
place, between the high school
teams of Milbank and Odessa.
Read it carefully.
"The way our boys "did Milbank
up' on the local diamond Saturday
June 9Th, was nothing slow. The
finish, both sides being determined to
win. When the first inning was finish
; ed it indicated more of q merry GO
round than q ball game, Milbank
pushing three men over home plate
and Odessa four. But with the second
inning the tables turned and not Q
score was made until tn last half OF
the fifth, when the White Sox pushed
in another score. Milbank scored two
men In the sixth, which ended their
count. Our boys succeeded in scoring
two in the sixth and two in the eighth.
Zarbock, who threw for Odessa, did
some good playing, he striking out
ten men and passing one, while Coch.
ran, the Milbank pitcher, struck Out
seven men and passed three.
The most interesting part of the
game was the umpiring. which wal
executed by gentl. man from Mil.
bank and was enjoyed = we'll as sp.
preciated by both spect tor and play
er. He could be heard by all and BY
''rag chewing" so commonly indul2.
ed in by ball players.
The White Sox meet the same team
on the Milbank diamond today and I
very close and Interesting game Ii
expected
The today referred to, was last
Saturday-the game was played
and was very interesting-score
l to 8 in favor OF he Mllbanl
high school team. Il was al
most a shut out for Olessa, bu,
then it would be pity to use 1
visiting team in that manner
Only the Milbank Woodmau nine
could or would do a trick Of tha,
kind-as they did with Corona
at Linden Beach some time ago.
The printers fooled them all IN
their game with Melrose the
10th at the grounds north OF
town. It took fifteen innings to
wind the game up, score 4 to 5.
1t may be added that the nine is
not made up Of printers entirely
the majority Of players work
at other trades. Three of the
nine are printers and the Re-
view furnishes this bunch.
Everyone who witnessed the
game say it was fine. All play
ed good ball.
