Both Teams Play Good Ball.

New Ulm defeated the Gibbon club
last Sunday by a score of to 3. The
boys took the lead in the early part OF
the game and altho Gibbon had good
rally in the 9th they failed to take the
lead because of fast double play. 1t
was New Ulm's good work on the
bases that won the game for Gibbon
outhit and outfelded them. "Coach"
Seifert was not in the game but he was
on the 3rd base coaching line and his
good judgement in sending the players
around the bags deserves mention.
Walters pegging to the bases was
very poor and the New Ulm boys stole
bases whenever they felt like it.
Schneider's pitching was great up
to the 9Th inning. He had them tied
up in a hard knot and Gibbon only
secured 3 hits off him up to that time.
He was little wild sometimes and he
made the mistake of depending upon
his fast ball alone. They finally land
ed upon him in the 9th and the game
was almost lost.-Carlson pitched a
good game for Gibbon but was touch.
ed up for few hits when hits meant
runs.
Giobon went out easily in the first
but New Ulm touched off the fireworks
right away. Wicherski singled and
stole second. Llndemann walked and

scored Lindemann and Dahms ended
it by whiting.
There was nothing doing until the
3rd when with one down Sorlein
singled between short and third and
swiped second. Klossner leaned
against the Spalding, lac1ng a pretty
single to left. Sorlein scored and
Klossner took second on the THROWN.
Buenger's out sent him to third and
he scored when Dahms reached first
on an error. Groebner walked but
the best Backer could do was to pop
to short.
In the first of the fifth Schneider
walked Brost with one out and Hear
derberg singled to left. Brost tried
to take third on it and was thrown out
while Olson fouled one to Backer.
Again in the 7th Gibbon threw scare
into the local bunch. With one in the
morgue, W alter dropped hit in left
and took second on a wild pitch.
Muffeln singled past second but WAL
ter was held at third. Brost skied to
left and Walter should have tried to
score but he didn't. Hearderberg's
weak effort was taken by Schneider.
Lindemann opened New Ulm's half

Sorlein's attempted sacrifice. Sorlein

ness that was most surprising as we'll
as heartbreakin He had trouble in
finding the plate and when he did put
them over they were smashed on the
nose. The only thing that prevented
Gibbon from amassing a larger score
was fast double play which Sorlein
started. Olson, the first batter, took
four and J. Friedl pasted on to right.
E. Friedl smote one to Sorlein who
threw to Klossner on third and Kloss-
ner got it to second in time to force J.
