ever, tllt mans PNN P''NA
c days victory in their bag
- only after the hardest kind
of work.
! On Friday it was a Mr.. Herbert
Kootz, a former Allentown boy, whose
home is now in Kingston, who was
responsible for Danville's runless
score; Saturday Manager Fisher put
his portside artist, Jenkins, from good
ness knows where. ON the slab, and
allowed the Danville batters to again
demonstrate their antipathy to south
paw fingers.
During the first eight and two-thirds
innings Jenkins had pretty much the
entire team mystified, and did his best
execution when Danville showed run
getting propensities. With two out in
the eighth Manager Fisher sent Kootz
into the box to finish the game, and
aided by double in the ninth, he was
able to keep the game in hand when
! things began to look as if Danville
might have look in.
Wagner and Livengood had the swat
market cornered, bingling three and
! two respectively These with other
causes pu5 Danville runners on bases
| in six of the innings, but the failure
/ to hit when swats meant scores kept
/ the kettle from boiling over.
For Danville Ainsworth pitched a
| good game, holding the heavy hitting
/ Mans we'll in control in all except the
second innings when four of their
seven hits were punched to result in
three runs, which as it proved was
enough to hang the game up to dry
although they did tally an extra one
| in the ninth for good measure.
! Danville's nearest chance TO break
ing up the game came in the second,
| Just after the Mans had tailed thrice
Wagner led off with Danville's first
hit and was followed by Hagy's strike
out. Wagner went TO second and Veith
got his station on Shemanski's error.
Wagner stole third and Veith purloin-
! ed second while Mackeret was getting
four balls. Wit. that brilliant per
formance and the sacks all weighted
the bleachers began to speak of scores
and things, but no use Kelly stood
for three strikes and Ainsworth laid a
grounder to Shemanski and went
down.
In the third Livengood was left on
. ] Of his hit In tha fpn rfh and
fifth but six men were up.
In the sixth Danville got her first
tally when just little hitting would
have mean more. Livengood opened
with hit to right but was caught
stealing second. Nipple got base on
balls and went to third when Wagner
hit to center. Nipple scored on Hagy's
scarifice fly, but the innings ended
with Kelly's strike out.
In the eighth Danville scored her
other run. jenkins issued his third
pass to Umlauf who stole second and
this while Livengood flied out to
right field and Nipple struck out Buck
then scored on Wagner's third hit At
third point Kootz went into the box
and retired the side by tanning Hagy.
In the ninth Veith got first on Sec
ond Baseman Murray's error. Bren-
} nan, batting for Mackret, drove a
J grounder near the second bag, Reilly,
Murray and Walsh completing a
} double With that over Kelly made the
last out of the game on n pop to third.
Unlike Danville Nanticoke made the
most of her chances to score when the
chances occurred. Her first chance
came in the second when Walsh open
ed with single. He was forced out
at second a moment later on Murray's
grounder to Livengood. Reilly theI
hit to left and Payton hit to right
scoring Murray. Davis famed, but
Jenkins followed with a two baggel
to the tune of which Reilly and Pat
yon came marching home. Buskirl
= flied out.
After that the Mans did not have
much more than smell until the
ninth, when they again made the mos
of small chance and took anothe,
tally unto themselves. Shemanski lee
: with hit and after two outs scored
a on Umlauf's S error. Thus endeth.
