er Jimmie Lucas, who has always
been more or less OF a teaser for the
Nlolders, was given a good trounc-
ing at wehrle PARK, Saturday after
noon by the BOY manager and MS
bunch 10 the delight OF about 600 rams
who Travelled TO the Dail yard for the
very purpose or seeing me Disgers
defeated. Neither the ians nor the.
players had forgotten the three
straight games the Newark gang lost
at Marion, and the winning of the
tirst melee helped to salve over the
wound caused by the triple defeats.
The reason for the victory is SIM
Pile. Lloyd pitched a ni.er game
than Lucas did and the team gave
: him cleaner support than the ODay
crowd gave to their star HEAVIER. But
on boot is credited to the Moders
and that occurred in the second in
ming when he twisted the handling
OF Reilly's drive.
1T didn't seem to the local fans hat
Marion has the team Portsmouth has
that is, it didn't show the inside base
ball during the game. This is prob
ably accounted for however by the
absence OF Manager O'Day, who holds
down the second base job and by his
presen e infuses fast blood into the
work of his men. O'Day broke a toe
on his left foot in the Friday game
at Mansfield, in trying to pilfer an
extra base on a misplay OF the Tig-
ers, and will probably be out of the
game for some time.
FOR the first tine this season the
double umpire system was used and
its advantage was demonstrated in
the third inning. With two men
down Wolfe cracked out a singing
single and was followed by Johnson,
who also found one to his liking.
The ball went into AObotts precinct
and Wolfe legged II for third. How
ever he failed to touch second, and
nlcClintock put him out by touching
the second bag after the ball had
been sent to him by Abbott and
Pinkney. An umpire, working behind
the plate might have overlooked the
play or refused to call the out If
. strenuous ki-k had been made by the
runners friends.
q The first count OF the game was
made In the second and It was nicely
earned by Newark. Fisher raped out
a two sacker to the left garden and
he went to third on McClintocks
nice roller. Wra;tenB long sacrifice
ITO Farrell sent him home. Davidson
hit a weak one that Lucas handled.
In the third frame the Molders
chalked up two more runs and the
fans breathed easier, Ior they have
learned that Marion is never beaten
until the last man Is down in the
ninth. Lloyd. who was first up,
cracked out grass clipper over second
and on Wolfe's muff OF the throwin
he went to second. Pinllney's in
field hit towards Watkins landed the
spit ball man on third while Pink
ney's speed put him on first in safety.
Snyder's sacrifice 10 Farrell scored
lloyd That catch OF FaTrell's was
beautiful play and the fast middle
suburbanite was compelled to lift
his cap 10 the crowd several times,
Instead of shooting the ball to see
ond Farrell tried to throw to the
plate and Pinkney went to second.
Abbott hit one to johnson and while
he was being dOwned at first, Coup
Id" legged Il for third. Powers was
on the Job with a nice drive over
johnson and Pinkney scored.
Marion earned her only run in the
fourth after Williams was down.
Staley used his mace to good ef-
feet and dropped his hit into the pas
ture just beyond second. Reilly also
uneorked one in his club and Staley
romped around the paths 10 third.
WILSON'S sacrifice to Powers scored
him, but Watkins high one to Suyd-
er prevented the Diggers from crowd
ING the pan too strong.
Timely hitting in the hfth scored
lloyd, who led off with another clean
single. Pinkney laid down a pretty
sacrifice and Snyder attempted the
same thing but his effort dropped
into the hands of Johnson. Abbott
tnrned the trick, however, with
Slashing two bagger through Farrell
and. Lloyd came home.
Both pitchers seemed to get their
second wind and the players evil
IDENTIFY had the misplays out Of their
system. for from the sixth until the
ninth inning the game was clean and
dast. Score:
