Boston seemed beaten. The worlds

Bay City hurlers TO the mound 10 op-
pose the battling Benders- Any but
Jenkins would have been doomed to
a sad defeat had he been used against
the Hoosiers AS 4 was, j. jenkins
was forced 10 the limit and he was
pitching some baseball when lac let
the Koehler troupe down with five
knocks.
LoudermiIk was Koehlers selec-
ton TO start the pastime. lie was all
right for the first two rounds, but in
the third the Beavers got 20 him and
they got 10 him for three hits and
one run after there were two down.
He got away TO a bad start again in
the fourth. the first three men up
crashing out honest-to-truth hits.
Those three hits filed all OF the
sacks and right there Ben Koehler
figured as how the best thing he
could do was TO take Loudermilk
away from the Beavers. He did. and
he put Duffy in. He famed the first
man and the bugs went crazy. J.
Jenkins lifted a long fly TO right and
naturally somebody was sure to score
on anything like that. The next dude
up sent a fly 10 center and then the
Bay City scoring was over.
One in Seventh.
Not until that seventh-that round
"
been won and lost-came around
could the Hoosiers ooze over a run.
Things looked bright for a tie-up and
a few extra rounds. but IL was not
to be so. Only one run came.
Kiefer started that seventh inning,
which was filled with lots OF anxious
moments. He hit to short for a
safety. Grodick hit through second
into center, Kiefer going TO second.
Stevenson lined one at second and
Kiefer came through with our one
lonely score. GrOdick went to third
and Steve was thrown out at first.
A single would have done wonders
right there, but the best KOrfhagen
could do was a fly to center.
Barry. the Beaver left gardener.
the boy who runs sideways to capture
flies in his district, brought in that
Bay City run in the third. Bussey
lead off with a fly to second and j.
Jenkins famed. Barry started that
terrific bOmbardment OF Loudermilk's
offerings that resulted in the former
BlacksOx being yanked. He hit just
over the infeld into left. Danny
Jenkins hit 70 Beall and was safe.
Combs hit over second and Barry
counted. With two men on. Louder
milk famed Harris, who is one Of
TIE ndIu nlllluS men OF the league.
DOnnelly started the fourth with
hit over second. Brubaker hit
through short Steele was supposed
10 have sacrificed, but he beat out
his bunt and the bases were loaded
Duffy went in and famed Bussey. ].
Jenkins lifted that fly to right and
Donnelly scored. Barry flew TO CEN
ter.
Hit Duffy Once.
After Duffy took his stand on the
raised portion. he pitched regular
baseball From that time on only
one Beaver hit safely. HurIer Jenk-
ms got that one hit, but he never did
get to second. In the fifth and sixth
Duffy and his hackers moved them
down three at a time There were
four men up in the seventh but in
the eighth and ninth it was one two
three.
Stevenson got as far as third in
the fifth. Diem was first up and
touled to the backstop Stevenson
hit over second and stole Korfhag-
ems out put him on third. Beall was
an easy out, second to first. and the
boosters were forced to wait until
the seventh TO get a score.
