,wn Friday---Kick
On Umpire.
3, E no 8,
drday and Sunday the Water

II League team were at Sioux
Falls
/ Concerning these games the Argus
II Il eader has the following:
The series Of two games between
tie Sioux club and the Watertcwn
lague team had rather a disastrous
result for the locals. There is no
question but what the Watertown
team is stronger combination of
ball players than the 500 team, but
there is not the difference that the
score of either game, especially that
OF Sunday, would indicate. The big
score Sunday was not so much the
result of superior play on the part
OF the Watertown team as it was
some poor playing on the part of
the locals. The visitors got a total
of eleven hits and s runs with 4 er-
rors. Sioux Falls with six hits could
only gather one lone run with er-
rOrS.
Notes Of the Game.
That was a vicious drive by Joe
Corrigan of the visitors in the first
inning when he drove the ball over
the furtherest part of the right field
fence. And the hardest part of it
was that Baker had two strikes and
TO balls on him when Baker put one
right over and the trouble was on =
McCauley fattened his batting aver
age with these two-baggers.
Walter Nee, who was pitching for
the visitors, worked under great
disadvantage. He is suffering from
a lame arm and he could hardly get
the arm into the sleeve of his coat
without assistance.
Clapper, who is doing the backstop
work for the Watertown bunch, shows
/ decided improvement over his form
when he was last here with the Mad
ison team.
With Bruce ON second in the sec.
ond inning Nee deliberately passed
Baker, pitching four wide ones with
out giving Baker even chance at
the ball.
The crowd was big one and the
visitors had a goodly number of root
ers in the grand stand.
Saturdays Game.
With the score standing to 0 in
favor of the home team up to the
fifth inning in Saturdays game the
fans began to think that the SOP club
was bound to be a winner. But the
fifth was a disastrous inning and the
T visitors ran in enough scores in this
inning to win the game, five tallies
. being marked up. The locals were
unable to do anything more in the
run-getting line for the remainder OF
the game while the visitors harvested
Two more marks, making their total Z.
Sunday at the Outlet. -
Sunday afternoon at the Outlet air
dome, the Watsrtown Stars, a bunch
OF fast local players, defeated the
Summit team by score of 8 toO.S Save
muff Of a fly in the outer garden.
the game was erporless, while the
pitching on both sides was effective.
4 Hancock did the twirling for the
! local boys and held the visitors to
two hits. Considering the fact that
Summit has been cleaning up all the
teams in that section OF the state,
his work was more than ordinary.
! Harrison did the receiving.
Briggs for the visitors was also a
tightwad in the matter of bingles,
allowing but three.
A small crowd was in attendance,
but all enjoyed the fast playing, as
some Of the fielding stnnts won.st
be worthy Of professionals.
Thursdays Game.
The first of the last week series
went to the home team, the count
being 9. to s. Nee who opened up for
the locals was relieved after the fifth
inning, the visitors having touched
linn linn tipsin the meantime for fiye safe
hits n addition to four home rms.
