FUN GALORE WHILE
WALLOP GOES ON

Ont at Front and Union Park yes
terday afternoon bomhardment took
place that will probably be remembered
for some time to come ia the annals
of Tri-State baseball. II was the great
est swntfcst seen at the park this
year Each team got enough hits and
used enough pitchers TO win three ball
games The run getting was started by
York IN the FIRST. tied up by Wilmington
IN the second. raised one by York IN
the next stanza. and ~ the fatal fourth
well we don't like to talk, suffice to
saw when the spectators who remained
for the finish left the park. there was
seen dangling from the scoreboard across
The fields
Wilmington l6. York 6.
After playing a sixteen inning game
TO 4 tie on Wednesday afternoon, York
and Wilmington came together yestcr-
dav and did exactly what most teams do
that 20 through grilling contest the
,av before-they played loose balls, al
slough to the ian who likes good clean
hitting. it was revelation. Both teams
used three pitchers and Swallow Of
Wilmington, was the first one to leave
the mound When he left it looked
like goodbye ball game for two runs
had been pushed across the plate against
i4he Chicks. Swallow was wild, giving
passages. which coupled with two hits
and q sacrifice, caused his downfall early
in the contest.
The Chicks came back hard in the
second and drove over fouf runs.
York sent over three in the third and
Wilmington scored two and in the
first half Of the fourth York collected
one more There was plenty Of eX-
citment in these stanzas, as the score
was zig zaging each way, and the out
come for steady playing to the finish
was up in the air. Then the Chicks
went 10 the bat to complete one OF
the bloodiest slaughters OF the year.
Brown was the first man up and
drew pass. Mckenna singled Jack
son sacrificed and Heine was waved
off the field by Heckert, who sent
Mckinley in. The big boy with
pretty cross fire fooled TeN Myers
into striking at one and letting an
other 60 BY, Thiags we're getting
pretty tight when Tex reached out
and smashed one Of Mt Mckinley 3

Athey would have to do the same thing
A,yer again In the inning. And that
what they had to do Sharpe

a.hoice Foye walked, Morgan went out
to Dundon and Tom Brown. who
started the big mess, was again safe
on Hopke's error McKenna walked.
Mckinley seemed to be tired out and
not at all terrified by the pounding
that he received Every time the
Chicks tore off a hit he laughed, and
/rot mad only when called down by
his own catcher Jackson came up
ana also drew a pass and Myers end
ed the agony when he hied out 20
