FIRST DEFEAT
FOR MILLER TEAM
Huron Ball T0ssers Score 6 to I
Victory

Manager Odle's local team met
defeat Sunday at the hands of the
Huron team, for the first time this
season. The club has won some
eight or nine games, but it is prob
able that they had not gone up
against as classy a bunch of team
workers as the Huron boys, who
showed considerable study of the
game, coupled with every day prac-
tice.
1t was largely box battle between
Garrett for Miller and Vocht for
Huron, with odds in favor OF the
home man, who struck out thirteen.
1t is perfectly safe to state that this
Garrett boy is some ball player. all
around. By the way. young Vocht,
the Huron pitcher. is an old Hand
county boy. He is the son of Chas.
Vocht, well known here. He is a
clever player.
The first half OF, the game was a
snappy interesting exhibition, the
best seen in Miller for many moons,
with the score at one to two, But
this strain soon told which was the
4 trained bunch. as it always will.
AS a matter of fact the Huronites
were no better ball players than the
local team, but they had the steadi-
ness obtained only by constant play
ing. Miller's pitcher did the best
work, and the Miller batters hit the
ball most, although neither team
was effective in their batting. But
the close team work, the ginger, the
tip-toe work of the Huron boys grab
bed a victory.
There should be no discourage
ment in this to the local boys. They
have the best pitcher seen here for
several years, and if the rest of the
team will go to work earnestly for
two-or three weeks they can trim
that neat little team from the Jim
Valley the next time they meet.
Two umpires were used in the
game, Albert Hansen and Joe Cur
