The idea of having the ball hit the ttones used for cycle track, a.s then bound over the fence, never even entered the minds of these clouting visitors. They just swatted the pill clean over the fence, teaching the spheroid to dive, and that was erough. Simmons accomplished the trick twice, besides two two baggers, and Zacher once.
