Sullivan was on the firing line for the

1t was due more to the good support of
his teammates than to his pitching that
he won the game. There was only one
error made by his team. and this did not
come until the last inning, and was not
costly.
The fielding of Evans, the little short

day was sensational, to say the least

managed to catch coming over his Shout
