on the field and when the break came
they cheered themselves hoarse with
delight.
Barnicle and Peloquin were the OPP
posing pitchers and they put up their
usual great battle for victory. Barni-
Gle, however. came out with the great
record unbroken that he has beer
making In this league. 1t was the
fourth successive shutout game he has
pitched and in 81 innings not run
ner has been able to get across the
plate, although Frappier and Macustry
nearly turned the trick in the eighth
inning
The game was marked by several
brilliant fielding stunts. Marion max
ing a real sensational catch OF a great
drive by George Johnson that looked
good for three bases. That catch cost
the Andems at least one run.
Putnam got their runs when Tatro
went to second in the seventh on a hit
to short that was fumbled and was
thrown wild to first, the runner scoring
on Shaw's single. Keach's single let
Shaw get around with the other run.
In the eighth Andem had chance
to win Fielding errors strengthened
the visitors opportunity and they tried
hard to get men around, two OF their
runners. Frappier and Macustry, being
called out at the plate on close de-
cisions.
