the league leaders, Connie Walsh'5 |
chesty Danville ball tossers invaded /
Jim Hayes ball lot yesterday after |
noon and lost a fercely contested bat |
tie in the 14th inning by a score of |
20 /. The Blue Sox nailed a run in |
the first on a double steal, and Dan |
vile knotted the count in the second /
stanss by means of two singles and
a boot From that time on the game
resolved itself into a gruelling, heart
breaking grind, both teams pulling
out Of innumerable holes by brilliant
defensive work and high class hurting.
With one out in Davenport's half of
the fourteenth. Reed, who had not
connected safely all afternoon, lined
the pill clear to the right field fence
and never stopped until he had landed
safely on the third cushion. With the
immense crowd yelling wildly, Keep
ping won an everlasting home for
himself when he cracked the ball
along the third base line for a clean
single. and Reed came romping home
with the winning tally. Some finish.
Roddy Hendrix got back TO his form
Of last season and pitched masterful
game, holding the visitors to five
scattered blows. Opposed to him was
the lanky Selby. Selby pitched air
tight ball up until the fourteenth, al
though he was generous in his walks,
handing out free transportation to six
Blue SOX. Davenport threatened in
the ninth, when with two gone Peters
scratched an indeld hit and Hendrix
followed with a single Reed struck
out, however, and Koeppiug popped
TO the catcher. The Sox could have
won the game in the tenth-IF. With
one down Bromwich got a life on
Staley's muff of an infield pop up. He
essayed to steal second and was nail
ed. Immediately thereafter Clemens
whanged the pill for three cushions,
and had Bromwich only stayed on the
first cushion, the game would have
ended right there. But enough of the
post norton. Here is a diagram.
