Newark post., 1912-09-11

The game between Newark and Elkton
on Saturday was a disappointment to
many of the local fans. They had fig
ured that by winning this game, the re-
manning three games would be easy,
which would give an excellent chance for
that the strong Port Deposit team should
lose one or more of it's remaining games.
Geoghegan, the Delaware College south
paw. who has been so effective since he
reioined the club several weeks ago, was
selected for the box work at Elkton, as
"Vic' Willis, had already pitched one
was, therefore, not eligible to pitch
again.
Unfortunately, it was one of Geog
hogan s bad days and, to use the well
known baseball term, he did not have a
thing but straight ball and good sup
port. Notwithstanding the fact that his
curve was not breaking at all, the locals
managed to keep the score tie until the
eighth inning. This was mostly due to
the fact that Elkton had not punched it's
hits and Newark played a fast game in
the field. Elkton was first to score, put
ting one over in the sixth, but Newark
came back strong in the seventh and tied
the score. This tie did not last long,
however, as the Cecil County boys got
after Geoghegan hard in the eighth and
batted four runs across the rubber, which
was more than enough to win. Elkton
tried four pitchers, LAWN, Potts, Wat
son and Clay, and all of them held New
ark safe. The score follows:

OXFORD CLUB STRONG

The work on the Oxford team since
July l., has been one of the features Of
the league race. Had Oxford played the
same class Of ball, the first two months
Of the season that it has played since, it
would now be in the first place with a
safe lead. The playing of this club since
July /, has been the strongest and most
consistent of any team in the league.
At that time Oxford was in the seventh
place and had won but very few games.
Since the team struck its gait, it has been
gradually climbing until now it is tied
for second place. The Oxford pitcher
iron man, Reynolds, is responsible for
much of this speed, but the team s hitting
ability is really what has brought it to
the front. Oxford has been hitting the
ball harder than any other club in the
league.
Elk Mills, due to the fine pitching of
Hoffecker has also been playing a fast
game for the last six weeks and has won
more than half of its games in that time
Notwithstanding it's low place in the race.
SEASON HAS BEEN A SUCCESS
The TriCounty season has been very
successful one This is due to the fact
that tn race has been a close one all
season and the league has remained in
tact. The same clubs remain that start
ed the season the first of last May.
While it is Newark s first in the
race, this town has greatly strengthened
the league. Newark has always been a
factor in the race, and has also drawn
larger crowds than any other town in the
organization. The interest taken in the
game locally is an indication that the
Newark fans prefer league ball to the
Independent games.
The local club goes to Northeast next
Saturday and will then be home for the
remainder of the season, September 21
with Northeast and September % with
Elkton. If the postponed game with Ok
ford is played off it will be on the local
grounds after the regular season closes.
