Hard batting won BrattIeboro 5 third
straight victory Saturday at Island
park, Newport being the victim and
the score 10 to ,. Errors sandwiched
IN with bases on balls and hits were
responsible for our runs while the Wis
| ltors two runs were presented to them
| Brown retired after seven runs had been
scored, and to show that all pitchers
look alike the Islanders banged out
| three more off Winkler The hitting of
| Soloman and Sullivan, catches by Mac
| Robbie, Dixie, Hammond and Volk and
the second base play of Norton with
| the spectacular work of Sullivan at
| first were the features of game that
the second largest crowd of the season
| enjoyed TO the uttermost.
1t was early apparent that Brown 5
delivery was due to be hit, and enough
| of the defence of the new home team
had been seen to warrant the belief
that o Conner had only to be reason
ably effective to hold the visitors safe
and O Conner was all that.
The visitors went out in order in the
first, Dixie making a pretty catch of
Hunt S long drive. In the home team s
half MaeRobbie worked the first of his
three passes and Solomon got the first
of his four hits, but Sullivan and Null
vey could not produce a wallop.
| \ single by Norton in the second
was made ineffective by Sullivan 5
pretty play off Durgin's grounder to
the first baseman. Sully took the ball
with his bare hand and rather than
| toll Oh = 20
the bag caught Norton between second
and third, where he was run down.
The Islanders put the game on ice
in their half of this inning Dixie
opened with a single Yelle tried once
to sacrifice and was then called out on
strikes. Hammond was passed. O'Con-
nor hunted to Crowther and beat the
throw, filling the bases. \ wild pitch
scored Dixie and advanced the others.
Proulx hit to Brown and was out at
first. MacRobbie was passed for the
second time and when Brown also
passed Solomon, Hammond was forced
home. Sullivan 5 single scored O'Con-
nor and MacRobbie Muivey was the
last out, but we had four runs.
Newport made two singles in the
third, but only three men came to bat
Gagain singled and was out trying to
steal Brown singled and on Hunt 5
grounder the exToronto pitcher tried
to make third and the side retired
Mulvev to Sullivan to Proulx. Brat
tleboro retired in order.
Crowther opened the fourth by hit
ting to Yelle, the ball bounding up
and hitting the second baseman on the
ear, Crowther being credited with q
scratch hit Perley flied to Hammond
Volk singled to left Norton flied to
MacRobbie On Sherman 5 hit to Null
vey the latter threw wild to Yelle il
an attempt to force Nolk, Crowthel
scoring. Dixie ended the inning by
getting Durgins fly in deep right
The Islanders were out in order
Ncwport's last run came in the
fifth, when with one down O'Conno
fell all over Brown s easy grounder
Hunt singled to right and on Dixie :
overthrow of third Brown scored

caught off first and was run down Will,
Hunt stuck to third. Perley was al
easy ont. Solomon opened the las

; Hammond s long foul fly to Vol
YcIle tried to make third. Perley VIII
r had also run for the fly, continued i
toward third and Nolk threw the bal
to him, Yelle being out, third basema
to left fielder, an unusual combination

was never dangerous, out in the sev
