Loucks was out, Gooch to MacFarland.
Fred Lange singled over Tiggle s head
and Hodges, the colt shortstop, lifted
foul which Abrahamson after a sprint
gathered in. Lange had taken a long
lead off first and found Loucks hang
ing around with the ball, returned from
Abrahamson, when he tried to get back.
Some fielding and team work, too. But
listen! LOucks cantered back to the

Rusty too took long lead off first and
was caught flatfooted 'steen feet away

love was constant he fondled three in a
