Friday sure is the of day for Vernon. as
the score Of the fourth game Of tho series
yesterday with Frisco proves. 1t required five
OF the rankest sort OF msplays by the VII
layers to permit the Seals to win their first
game in the south, while the score, with per
feet playing, should have been to in favor
of the Vernons. Six of the eight runs scored
bv the Seals were made as the result Of
errors. while two Of those tailed by the
home team were produced through the same
medium.
Hensling outpitched Ames by decent mar
gin but he was given such fierce non-support
in the field and at the bat that Mathewson
would have been discouraged The only earned
runs scored by the Seals came in the second
inning while two of the three runs registered
FOR Vernon in the fourth were unearned. Ames
allowed as many hits as Hensling yielded and
gave as many bases on balls, but Hensing
forced seven Seals to fracture the ozone, while
only one Viager was guilty of this violation
of good baseball playing.
Frisco started off in the lead in the first
inning by scoring once and Vernon tied the
score in their half Two more runs were
credited to Frisco in the second and Vernon
waited until the fourth to take the lead with
three tallies. In the seventh the Seals scored
ngain and Vernon united It in their half
After that Vernon was unable to make con-
nections, while Frisco put over one run in
the eighth and three more in the ninth. Err
rors in the seventh, eighth and ninth enabled
these five runs to be scored and lost a hard
game for Hensing.
Shaw was the particular star for Frisco,
making four hits. He started the fireworks in
the first inning with his first single. Nun
dorff hit down to Burreil, who threw wildly
to first allowing the runner life and put
ting Shaw on third. Melchor forced Mum
dorff at second and Tennant raised a high
one to Martinke Shaw scoring after the CATCH
Vernon tied the score in their half. Car
Isle walked and took second on Burrels sac
rifce Martinke triped to center and Car
Isle registered.
Frisco united the score in the second and
took the lead with two runs. Bodie walked
and Berry drove the ball over the left field
fence for a homer. Not until the fourth did
the Villagers get even again. In that inning
some mispays, nice hitting and fancy base
running sent in three runs and put Vernon
in the lead for the first time. Lindsay sin
sled past third and went to second on Fisher S
bingle TO left. Hogan pushed an easy one
down to Mundorf, who threw poorly to first
and Lindsay and Fisher passed over the pan
Hcnsling was an easy out and Brown, run
ming for Hogan, scored on a passed ball.
Scoring was suspended until the seventh,
when the Seals tied the score with one run.
Berry famed and Griffin walked taking sec
ond on Ames' inheld sacrifice. Shaw. the
lucky bird, smashed a hot one through short.
Lindsay being unable 10 hold onto IT, and
Griffin tied the score Vernon again assumed
the lead in their half Of this inning by scor
ing a lonesome. Carlisle singled inheld and
went to second on Burrells sacrifice Mar
tinke singled to right and Carlisle went TO
third. Roy Brashear hit down to second and
was retired but Carlisle got home with the
run that again put the suburban boys in
front
Ames then settled down to his best efforts
and always held the home batters safe until
the end Of the game. In the eighth the Seals
went to the front with a solitary one thai
was scored on some bad playing and timely
hitting Melchoir singled to right and went
20 second Tenants inheld safety. Witt
hunted TO Hensling, who threw the ball away
in his anxiety TO catch Melchor at third,
allowing the runner 10 go on home. The
game was already won, but fearing the bulldog
qualities of the Villagers. the Seals piled
up three more runs In their half OF the
ninth. Ames famed and Shaw made his
fourth safety, sending the ball to left. He
stole second and MuudorT walked Melchor
singled to left and Martinke allowed the ball
to roll to the fence Shaw and Mundorff
scoring and Melchoir taking third. Melchoir
went TO sleep between home and third and
was caught but Brown got too hasty and
dropped the hall, permitting Mechoir 70 score.
Inasmuch as the cutups had Won three
straights from the Seals. thereby exceeding
expectations. the loss Of this game will be
overlooked by the fans who will hope that
the Villagers got all the bad baseball blood
out of their veins in this one hercc exhibit
ton The same teams viii play today at tho
Chutcs and Hit probably Will be ON the firing
line for tho Neruons, which will he sufficient
to cinch the series
