could not connect afely when hits meant
runs.

bright star of the day. He banged out
two hits. brought in three runs. stole Ave
bases and f1elded his position at third in
brilliant style.
Evans at short pulled off a good play
on Angel in the seventh Had he erred
another run would have crossed the plate.
A snappy double play in the fourth by
Lewis, Cartwright and Hauser pulled the
losers out of hole for the time being.
McGrann pitched good ball and kept the
nine hits made off his delivery well scat
tered. Only two were punched and they
yielded one run. when coupled with a
passed ball and two wild pitches.
Daily made star catch in the outfield
in the second off Hauser The speedy
left fielder started at the crack of the bat
and caught the ball in deep left.
Howard, the little short fielder Of
Georgetown. was benched in the third for
disputing one Of Umpire Rays decisions.
Mahoney at second for the West End
ers pulled off several good plays. His
stop and throw on Beach in the sixth
