Heavy and timely hitting sent IN.
Crescent Athletic Club to the tonmost
rank in the Amateur League cham
pionship race yesterday when tn. New
Moon nine defeated Englewood Field
Club by score of s to at Bsy Ridge
The victory puts the Crescents Ions
came ahead Of the Englewood team.
Apart from some exeerable umpiring
the game was fast and interesting.
The Jerseymen got into difficulties in
the first frame and let the Crescents,
last years champions, get the jump
and score three runs, the margin, AZ
it later developed, by which the Bay
Ridge team won.
Old Don Mckay, the student pitcher
OF the Crescents, was lucky to get
away with the game, however. He
kept Englewood down to five hits, but
he was wild as hawk and gave no
less than eight bases on balls. In
addition he threw in a wild pitch and
hit two batsmen, but for all that Engle-
wood could not touch him in tho
pinches, and consequently trsiled ali
the way.
The Crescents opened up terrific
cannonade on Charlie Press in the frst
frame and kept il up more or less con-
tinuously. In all they smashed into
Press for thirteen hits, which included
q home run, three Dagger and y
couple Of doubles. Jack Dalton, tho
Crescent's second basemsn and man
ager, who goes by the nickname o,
pepper" was the demon slugger OF
the day. He whsled out four hits in
five trips to the plate, one q home run
and two neat doubles.
Frank Bien, the august president or
the league, who fills in on the Engle-
wood team when any OF the regulars
fall down. was pressed into service be-
cause OF the detection Of Falsey, the
crack Yale outfelder who has just
Joined. the Pirates. Falsey's absence
was pretty we'll discounted by Bien's
playing. In the second frame, bien
made frightful mess OF McKay's ny
70 tight but he more than made up for
this lapse when his turn came 1t the
bat. He drove out two hits, one OF
them a double, which sent two OF En-
glewood's runs across the plate. Tnere-
after Blen was king. -,
Englewood's hopes Of starting Win
a rush in the first frame were snuhed
out by a fast double play, after barn
we'll had singled. That retired the SIDE
and so upset the Jerseymen that they
let the Crescents get away TO DIG
lead in their half of the frame.
BALM, Princeton's all-America tackle
sent the Bay Ridge nine on nying py
driving a single to right. Dalton was
an easy cut, but Mallory waited Press
ont. and was rewarded with base on
balls. Randy Sides trotted to the
plate and slashed out what would nave
been scored as a Cincinnati base MT
last wear to Hartmann, BALM scoring
ON the play. Todd Brown was walked
and Eddie Butler. the 1918 Cornell
captain. drove a hit through the cen,
ire of the diamond. which scored
Mallory and Sides. That ended ,ne
activities of the Crescents Tor the
time being. .. er.,

bat in the second frame, and although

after being hit by pitched ball. ne

ers moved on to third, but Mchay

Afth. when Wiley walked and raced All

the slumberer. Wiley scored on
