NINTH INNING SEALED
ATHENA'S DOOM
Hutchinson Struck Out IS for Pen
dleton and Won Applause from the
Bleachers-Athena Lead in Seventh
Inning But Gould Not Hold It
Pendleton s; Athena Z.

This Is the tale that is told by the
score book, but it was even a more
interesting game than the figures
show. At the beginning of the ninth
inning the score was "seven all" and
for time it looked like an extra in
ming would be needed to settle the
matter. But Fred Hartman, the
first batter up, went to first on a sim
gle, and was soon around to third
while Baker had reached first
through an error on the part of Athe-
ma second baseman. Collins then
struck out and Nelson made a sacri-
flee hit by sending a long fly into the
left field. Hartman ran in from
third after the ball had been caught
and thereby ended the game.
In the game yesterday Hutchinson
pitched throughout the game for Pen
dleton and he won admiration by the
way he did his work. Early in the
game Pendleton took the lead. But
in the sixth Athena did some work
with the stick and the score was made
six to six. In the seventh Athena
forged one point ahead. But while
the game was going against him
Hutchinson stood his ground we'll and
added more strikeouts to his credit.
In the eighth inning Hutchinson
himself tied the score by coming
home after Strand had knocked a
two bagger.
Baker was behind the bat for PEN
dleton during most of the game. Col
Inns taking first base after the first
few innings had been played.
For Athena LeBrasche was the
twirler and Lawrence Lieuallen the
catcher. 1t was good battery as is
shown by the detailed score as given
