FATTEN BATTING AVERAGES
But One Man in Lineup Who Fails to
Get in the Hit Column|awnny
Duffy Driven from Box.

Rock Island evened up the series
with Danville yesterday afternoon, and
with vengeance. The final count
was 9 to 0 and all of the runs came in
the first four innings. Duffy, who
started or the mound for the visitors,
was no puzzle whatever, eight hits be-
ing made off his delivery in the first
three innings. Six runs resulted, and
then Woods was called to the hurting
post. In the fourth inning it looked as
though the Islanders could not be
stopped when, with a base on balls, an
error and four hits, three men crossed
the plate. After the fourth Woods
was effective, allowing but two hits.
For Rock Island, Cavet showed his old
time form by holding the visitors to
four hits and passing but two men.
His teammates played errorless ball,
and kept things we'll in hand through
out the contest.
Callahan started things in the first
inning by hitting a single past first. He
went to third on Davidsons hit to cen
ter and scored on Manusch's binglo
into left Davidson was advanced to
second by the hit O'Leary lived on
felder's choice, while Davidson was
thrown out at third. Manusch advanced
TO second on the play, but was caught
when he made try for third. O'Leary
took advantage of the play and made
second. Kelly hit a short one to cen
ter and Dan sprinted home with the
second tally of the inning. The inning
ended when Snyder flied to short.
Begins With "A walk.
In the third, Davidson, first up, was
walked. Manusch advanced him to
second on a pretty bunt to Duffy.
O'Leary hit over short and Davidson
started for the home plate. A bad
throw by Fisher enabled him to make
it, and Dan went to second on the er-
ror, and then scored on a pretty three
Dagger by Slattery out to the club
house. Kelly knocked one down to
Magee, who was playing close to cut
Slattery off at the plate. He missed
the ball and Slattery came home, while
Kelly was safe at first. Kelly stole sec
ond and Snyder flew out TO Burns.
With a pretty two-bagger over Burns
head Vogel scored Kelly. Woods took
Duffy's place in the box, and all that
Cavet could do was to get hit to Ma
gee, who threw him out at first, ending
the inning with four scores over.
Just to show that it made no differ
ence who was in the box, the Island
ers started out for more scores and
ended with three to their credit Cal
lahan, the first man up, walked. Da-
wilson hit to left, sending Callahan to
second. Manusch hit over third, adj
vancing each a base. O'Leary hit into
left, soring Manusch. Davidson also
scored on the play when a bad bound
of the ball thrown by Burns went over
the catcher's head. Manusch went to
third on the throw and OLeary landed
at the half way station. Slattery hit
to left, scoring Manusch. He was
forced at second when Kelly hit to
short. Kelly attempted to steal and
was caught. Snyder made fine at
tempt for hit and almost succeeded.
Spectacular Catch Ends Fest.
Hildebrand made a beautiful catch
of his fly, however, and ended the in
ming and the runs for the game. The
score:
