fork hand HEAVIER, came back yester-
day and put Lima through ahead in
a game featured not only by his great
pitching but by the hurting of Will
liam Baxter as well.
Baxter and Pennybaker both pitched
magnificent ball. Neither should have
been scored. 1t was a pair of errors
on one drive by Colligan and Epler
neither o. whom played the ball safe,
that pushed over two counters for the
Beans and gave them the game. This
was after Textor had given Marion a
run by throwing to left field when
Lohr and Epler were doing a double
steal, Lonr scoring. But Marion scored
first and therefore 1t was great piece
of luck II at Pennybaker managed to
pull thro IRh and win. Strange thing
to relate when Marion did not get u
safety off the southpaw until Reilly
scratched q hit in left after one was
out in the ninth. But 1t was Penny
bakers wildness that kept him in
trouble and permitted a run In the
first innllg.
On the ether hand two smashes in a
row and two errors upset Baxter who
did not issue a rass all day long.
With perfect support 1t seemed ~quite
likely that those two pitchers would
have bat'led until sundown without a
decision and batting average would
