PRACTICE GAME

Stonega defeated Big Stone
Gap in AN exhibition ball game
at this place Saturday after
noon by a score of ID TO {. The
game was very interesting for
the first four innings, but Ston
ega, by heavy batting, aud
some costly errors by the home
boys piled up "a big score dur
ing the remainder of the game.
Mullins, the Appalachia high
school pitcher, started in the
box for Stonega, and pitched
good ball until the fourth in
ming, when the home team
made four runs of his delivery.
Williams took Mullins place
in the box and Big Stone Gap
was not allowed TO score again
during the remainder of the
game. Banks and Baker, the
local twirlers, were not in good
pitching trim
The homo team is composed
of splendid baseball material.
and as evidenced by Saturdays
game, only thing they lack is a
lot of good practice. With this
they will be a hard team to beat
in the contest for the Athletic
Association Cup.
Following was the score by
innings in Saturdays game.
