Ansons, led by Fed" Harter, defeated
Ned" Egan's Orphans from Galesburg
in a fine exhibition Friday afternoon
oy score of l to 0. The game was
largely a battle of pitchers between
Harter and Ross, Egan's star hurler
with the Marshalltown man proving to
be the stronger. Both pitchers were
backed up by fancy infield work, max
ing the contest decidedly interesting
one from start to finish.
The game was played almost entire
ly In the indeld, the outer gardeners
having few chances during the after
moons pastiming. With air-tight work
py the baSemen the contest settled
down to one Of pitchers. 1t being a
question Of which could stand the
strain tho longer. Harter proved the
stronger, Ross webbing in the ninth,
when the Ansons nicked him for two
hits and forced him to issue two passes,
resulting in the lone tally Of the game
being registered.
Busy Day for Burswald.
Lefty Lentz was delegated to open
the Galesburg series for Marshalltown,
but he did not warm up as he should
and Harter was sent to the warming
pan late The change in pitchers
caused Egan hurriedly to shift his
team to face Highlander. and
Babe" Sohn, erstwhile Arson, was
rushed into the game as lead-of hit
ter.
There was little beef behind the
blows of the visitors, and much of the
game was played between short and
first base Burgwald had an extremely
busy day, accepting Clearly ten
chances. His playing was a feature OF
the game. Harvey, who made one
particularly brilliant stop and Delaney,
who proved the hitting kid OF the af-
ternoon were credited with nearly all
the other assists, while Foster. at first,
secured grand total Of seventeen put
outs. Andreen played an exceptionally
good game, and when he cut the ball
loose for second 1t was sure death to
the base stealer. In the outfleld BroIn-
lev was the only local player who had
a chance. He had two putouts and
the only other balls hit out Of the in
field were two blows which went for
hits The only other safe blow secured
hit
kensef Makes Brilliant Stop
The Orphans were also cutting fancy
capers In the field, and their defensive
work was supurb. In comparison with
the field work OF Muscatine on the
previous day, Galesburg looked like
champions and Boyle's outfit like the
cellar champs. Kensel, small Of sta
mi md
played a grand defensive game, and
figured in one sensational stop, which
was the leading feature of the day.
Jack also figured in some dazzling
field work.
Galesburg. however, could not hit
safely. and it was not until the seventh
that a safe bingle was registered It
was Jack who secured the first blow,
and Kensel followed with a sacrifice.
That was as far as the aggressive work
went in that frame, however, as Cal
lahan was out on strikes and Reinhart
was thrown out at first.
Galesbure Dangerous But Once.
Only once cid the Eganites threaten,
and that was in the last inning. With
two out Jack hit for two bases and
Kensel followed with an infield single.
With Jack threatening at third base,
Callahan was forced to lay down a
grounder for an out at first
Harter kept the visitors poking their
drives directly at the intieiders, with
an occasional infield fly. Strike outs
were few on either side.
In the meanwhile Ross was working
Just as heroically. Delaney, who had
a perfect batting record fer the day,
secured his first blow in the second,
and it was not until the seventh that
another could be registered. In that
inning it was Delaney who again found
Ross for safe one.
Ross Weakens in Ninth.
The breaw in Ross work became
noticeable in the eighth, when Harter
singled clearly after two hade expired.
The blow unsteadied Ross and he
passed Jude Bromley hit a high foul
to Norvold, who dropped the ball, the
misplay being the only one chargeable
to the visitors. Bromley then flied out
to Callahan.
1t was soon over in the locals half
of the ninth. Burgwald make a savage
swing, hitting to left field. where Sohn
made a pretty catch. Foster followed
with a hard drive, which had suffi-
Client zip as it whizzed past Ross to
give Tie SOHe 6pFEeueuSlOI
and in his anxiety he lost control
passing Delaney and Harvey
Seibert's Drive Wins Game.
With the bases full 1t was Chubby
Seibert's good fortune to come up in
the pinch. Chubby was equal to the
occasion and spanked out a hard drive
which would have geen for two bases
had it been necessary to have length
ened out the hit. 1t scored Foster from
third and the game was over.
One of the most encouraging feat
ures was the renewed snap and pepper
displayed by the Ansons. They looked
like new outfit and II the same gin
ger Is displayed in future they will
give an excellent account of them
selves. Lentz is slated to pitch today
and Maui has been reserved for the
Sunday battle. The score:
GALESBURG.
