With such twirling as Baxter and
Lewis staged yesterday there was
nothing to it. That sort Of pitch
| ing would have won about any old
game from any old team.
Colligan has been demon hitter
in the home series In 10 times
at bat he has poled II hits. OF
these one was a home run and one
triple. Bill has also shown i'm
proved play at short that magnih-
cent arm allowing him to play deep
er than any of the other short
nelders and to get the fastest run
ners on slow hit balls If he comes
back next year and gets started with
| the rest of them on the iniield he
| will b asly the star of the league.
"
Linderbeck had big day yestcr-
day. He singled three times in four
trials i'm the first game and stole
base. In the second game he stole
his way from first to home. The
old top got ribbed each time he
faced shannon I'm the second game,
Schrcck caught two pretty games
game. catching Shannon was Il well
executed play
Scheck caught two pretty games
and did some good throwing in both,
When 1t comes to outgucssing the
enemy the backstop is there. Digger
pitchers say it is Il pleasure 10 pitch
to SchreCk because it IS like throw
ing a ball into a barrel. The old
top makes them do it.
Meehan got "a hit in each game
and stole base in each. He was
robbed of safety by Conley's great
catch in the first contest
Eplcr garncred two doubles and a
single in the two games. In the
| second he batted with perfect aver
age getting a two baser the only time
| he was credited with time at bat
Weller went hltless in the first
game but pollcd two in the second.
| The sturdy Irshman had a great
| fielding day about the last corner,
| going through with several sensa-
tional stunts.
Baxter and Lewis both used their
gloved hands to spear hard hit balls
NalIy's catch Of Mcchau's long
foul was a bright feature,
Marion fans would like to possess
NalIy, The Toledo dayton Cast-ou
always shows his very best on the
local park and his best Is something
pretty good.
Colligan had a triple and two sing
les in Saturdays game.
Players today are getting ready to
leave and by tonight most of them
will be on their way home to spend
the winter. They have nothing but
good words for Marion fans and the
treatment accorded them here by the
public generally. There's not one
of them but would like to battle
| for another pennant for Marion in
1911 and most of them will be back.
POscy Hummel played more games
| than any other player on the club in
| a Marion uniform this season. The
yOungsteT, n raw recruit when he
| reported this spring, mas had many
of the rough places rubbed OFF in
| this seasons play and his work for
Marion has been on high order.
NoXt year with all of his 1910 eX-
perience, he will be a far more val
liable asset. zmich sent good one
| to Marion when he recommended
| Hummel,
That Sunday doubleheader was a
mighty sweet way to close season
full of hard strife, reverses, victories,
etc. Digger fans feel that they had
| the team to do it with but a batt-
| Ing slump at the very end in the
| crucial series, put them out of it,
There's a lot to look forward to
next year
