Mansnelds last visit TO Digertown
I'm the year 1909 will be long rem
embered in these parts, hardly mind
you. because of any particular Digger
deeds, but rather misdeeds.
Enough happened in that parting
fray 10 mi a joke book 1t was a
pretty serious thing for a while.
hoping against hope, and pulling for
"Bucknell Bill" to call a hit, but Bill
evidently lost his voice, or couldn't
call, and what was earlier ter
rible thing soon became a farce and
fans made merry at the Diggers' ex-
pense They shouted in glee when
Mansfield Kept on hammering Par
son and yelled for Mogan to go out
and get his Mogan did.
Biery gave some indication of what
was to come In the first frame. After
looking them over n bit he walloped to
left center for three sacks. Meehan's
fy TO Williams was a scarificer, Biery
scoring. Smith popped to Reilly and
Davy followed with a double TO right
Gnadinger was easy.
Diggers Immediately forged into
the lead in their half. Behringer
singled TO middle and Shields sacrih-
ced. Wolfe followed with a baser
to left that scored Behringer. VIII
liams' out put Wolfe on second and
Staley sent him to third with n slow
roller that got past Freeman. The
bases were fun when Farrell was hit
and then Cy Freeman hit Reilly
forcing in Wolfe. Willoughby was
out on a pop to Redman.
In the second the Diggers appar-
emily cinched the game. Parson sing
led and Behringer walked. Shields
sacrificed. Wolfe again came to the
rescue with a smash to center scoring
Parson and Behringer. With Wolfe
hiking in hit and run play Williams
smashed one past Freeman and tag
ged for hit but Davy, over TO cover,
got the ball and touching second
threw to Biery completing a double
Mansfield was docile enough in the
second and third but Oh, you fourth;
Singles by Davy, Gnadinger. a double
by Flood and Redman's triple, pro-
duced three runs.
That was enough of n Joy remover
but wait a second and hear about
the sixth. With one out Gnadinger
singled. Flood hit TO Wolfe, who
were full That started things nicely
Kettler got ribbed and the bricks
were ful. Here Parson thought
Gnadinger was leading off third too
far and heaved to Wllloughby The
peg went wild and Gnadinger and
Flood scored, Kettler going to third
Redman's long fly to Williams scored
him. That cleared the bases but It
was not to be all. Singles by Freeman
Biery and Meehan produced two
more runs, making 1t five in all for
the frame. Smith, very kindly hit 10
Williams and ended the agony.
Then Lewis decided that Parson
had had enough and put in Mogan.
the raw recruit from Columbus.
Mogan had his troubles. He found
athletes in a peculiar frame of mind
and willing TO make II hard as possi-
BILE for him. He got away without
any trouble I'm the seventh but the
eighth after two were down became a
scoring inning. With two gone
Meehan walked and scored on
Smith taking third when Staley
threw the ball to the stands after re-
laying Williams heave. He scored on
Davys inheld hit. Davy then
swiped and went to third on Gnad
inger's drive TO Staley which went
for hit when Mogan fell on his head
trying TO get his feet on first base and
catch the ball at the same time. One
of Mogan's feet got so far out that 1t
tripped the runner. Gnadinger
swiped but Johnstone caught the
Flood lift.
In the sixth Reilly and Davy had
collision at second. the catcher be-
ing Knocked and had to give way TO
Johnstone.
