Diggers Use Lucky "Seven-
tn TO Reclaim Contest.
SEVEN HITS AND I RUNS
Final Count Is 10 to q in
E Exciting Game.
Lewis Makes Debut and is Wild but
Uphitable-Hancock Follows and
Holds MOlders Safe.

Once more the Diggers let Newark
apparently walk away with the
game and then came back in and
hammered the leather to all corners
coping 10 to 4. Weather conditions
were almost as unfavorable yester-
day as the day before. It bothered
the Diggers and the Molders in their
fielding but the Diggers' batting eyes
were trimmed in proper style.
Joe Lewis made his local debut
for Marion As he himself feared he
had not the proper control. 1t was
the first time since Lewis reported
that he has thrown any curve balls
When he managed to get them over
II was easy picking for him and the
1IOlders should not have counted
while he worked, but errors served
them up three runs. Not a semblance
of safety was made of Lewis dur
ing the two and one third innings,
the pitcher himself either striking
out or throwing out every batsman
who went out in that time. Han
cock replaced Lewis and did better
because he had something closer to
control But four safeties were Sc
cured by the Molders off Hancock,
and these were scattered. Snyders
homer, a high fly over the right field
fence, did the only damage. There
was never a real good chance for the
callers after that.
Cook was the Davidson selection
and the manager decided 10 do the
receiving himself He got away
good after the first inning, but the
locals got to him in the fourth and
then came the lucky seventh when
succession Of seven blows, a sacrifice
fly and an error put seven runs
over.
The Diggers were first to get into
the run column. Farrell singled to
middle and Wolfe beat out his bunt.
Lofland was in front OF ODay's
poke, close to Sc ond, but threw the
ball away and Farrell counted while
Wolfe raced to third, O'Day taking
second but the next three Dlggers
could not bring them in.
Newark stock took on a boom i'm
the decond when without even
hit, they scored twice. Fisher walked
and Lonand sacrificed. Wolfe's err
ror put Fisher on third and gave
Wratten a life. Davidson went out
from Lewis to Staley and Cook
walked, filling the pillows. An err
ror of an easy grounder by Watkins
let Fisher tally and a pass issued
10 Lefty Snyder forced Wratten in.
Abbott was easy IDswis to Etaley.
Another run without a hit was
given to Newark in the next. Pfeif-
fer drew transportation, Fisher sacri-
fred and Lofland was target for
Lewis. A wild pitch advanced the
runners and Wrattens long lift to
Farrell let Pfeiffer score, after Han
cock had replaced Lewis.
Lefty Snyder's homer came in the
fourth. 1t was the last of the runs
for the visitors.
Marion got within shooting dis
tance in the fourth. Williams sin
gled TO right and went to second
when Fisher muffed a peg from Cook.
Staley's out put the Chief on third.
Wilson smashed one at Cook which
the finger knocked down. Pinkney
secured the pill and threw low to
Fisher, letting Williams score and
Wilson take second. Watkins out

Lefty Snyder caught a fast one
on Hancock ana sent 1t sailing over
the right wall u was fortunate
that Reilys throwing was there to
help in that inning or Newark would
have made three in that inning in
stead of but one. Cook singled and
he stepped a little too far off first
whereupon Reilly whipped the leath-
er to Staley rapid-ire fashion, and
caught the pitcher. Pinkney then
walked and tried to steal-think of
the audacity-and Reilly had at least
ten feet.
Not a hit was made OFF Lewis and
Hancock made a mighty good inn

drive from Watkins bat I'm the sec
ond. The ball looked to be tagged
for a safety until the midget went
back and gathered It In. Pinkney's
throwing seems to be decidedly off
color as fully three fourths Of the
games here have been either on the
ground or mighty close to it.
Few who saw the contest will soon
forget Reilly's throwing to the bases
unless the player continues to do it
with such regularity that the regu-
lars at the park cannot pick out his
good and bad days. Reilly had four
assists. There was no chance for
anyone TO steal, he turned the feet
est OF them back in trying to make
second. But more than that he
nipped two runners leading too far
off first and had another caught at
second had not Wolfe dropped the
ball.
On the bases Reilly was the daring
one yesterday. He stole third on

out of his temperance proclivities and
the fact that the word suggested other
