Lundin was in fine form yesterday
and he held Decatur to only three
hits and one run, while his mates
were gathering in seven hits and four
runs off of Decatur's star pitcher,
Bittrolff. At the same time he showed
the rest of the team how to put the
hickory against the sphere and made
two dandy hits both of them figuring
in the run getting. The lonely score
of the visitors came in the fourth in
ming when Jeffries, the first man up
in the inning. poled a three Dagger
out into right garden, the only extra
base hit of the game. He came home
an instant later On long fly which
Tenant sent out to Murphy That
ended the Commodores' chances, how
ever, and for, the rest of the game
they were easy meat for Lundy.
The champs made their runs in
pairs, two of them in the sixth and
the other two in the eighth. Lundin
started the rally in the sixth with a
pretty single over first base. Murphy
laid down perfect sacrifice and al

with hit just inside the third base

the twirler scored. The manager
went to second on the throw which

In the eighth Eng commenced
trouble for the visitors by getting to

at third was too big and slow to han.

away in his hat and Gus went to sec

chance to show his sacrificing spirit
and he did so in a manner that did
him proud. Manager Cook made
