Last Sunday afternoon a game Of
bail was played between the Lastrup
team and the Pierz Juniors on the
Pierz diamond. The game was very
exciting and many brilliant plays
were made. The Juniors, bunch of
young lads of the village, have I'M
proved much this season and it takes a
fairly good team to beat them. With
the visitors to bat in the first inning,
Herm Vanderhaar, of the Juniors,
} struck out three men and in the
. second inning he struck out two
more, and the others did not get to
first, but no score was made so far.
In the third inning the visitors scored
on an error by the Juniors, who were
not able to get a man across the home
plate. Drummer of the visitors strlk-
ing out the first two and the third did
not get to first. The fourth inning it
was one, two, three, out. In the fifth
inning the Juniors got even with the
visitors by bringing Wermerskirchen
over the home plate and the score was
tie. Before the side retired
Vanderhaar made steal for home,
scoring one more for the home team.
After the fifth inning neither side
scored, but the visitors made a
desperate effort to tie the score in the
last half of the ninth inning with two
out and runner on second, but he
was thrown out on third. This ended
one of the best games ever played on
the Plerz diamond, leaving the score 2
to 1 IN favor of the Pierz Juniors.
