the side without score. In came the
married men with a determination.
Larrabee was first up. IIe hit to Arm
strong at second but the little player
juggled the ball until the runner was
safe. Winslow was very wild and amid
intense cheering, gave the next two
batters free passes, thus filling the
bases. Goodwin was all broken up and
determined to stop the run if there was
any possible way. He went into the
box amid the cheering of his support
ers in the grandstand, who surely
thought he could save the day. He
threw several across the plate in warm
ing up and then settled down to strike
out the three batters. Larrabee was on
third bse on his toes every minute
ready to score if there was any possible
way. The mighty "Cy'' Goodwin raised
his" arm to deliver. the ball to Arm
strong after he had taken the signal
from his catcher but something hap
pened, either he misjudged Arm
length or the ball slipped, for
ii went beyond the reach of the catch
er and Larrabee scored from third.
Joy reigned supreme in the quarters
of the married men and their hackers
went wild. They won the game on their
merits and had right to be elated.
