III was DelOrc IL crown HuHioSiihS -
the vicinity of 500 enthusiastic baseball
fans that the Italian Athletic club de-
feated the Barre Athletic club at the
Granite City trotting park Saturday aft
ernoon by score OF to 3. IL was, IN
many respects a pitchers duel, both men
twirlng great game, but Weaferi had
the best of the day and won by two
scores. Ideal baseball weather prevailed,
and the score kept close, the Italians not
once being in the background, and the
large crowd present had plenty of ex-
element and interest presented to them
by the battling of the two teams that
hold so much rivalry against each other.
The game did not once lag, and for one
hour and twenty minutes both fought
their hardest, and to the very end Of the
last inning.
With Jack Leonard of Bethel in the
umpire's box, there was no chance for
kicks on the decisions, and it was by
good baseball that the Italians won.
Both teams had new man in their
lineup Saturday, the Barre team having
secured Callahan, of Concord, N. H.. to
play third base, and the Italians plotting
Grow, of Richmond, down to hold down
their third sack. Both the new men
displayed good baseball, but Callahan
was the better of the two, showing some
classy plays. He got two hits and ran
the bases like deer. Grow had little
chance to show himself on the bases, he
getting a single hit sacrificing once.
The hitting of the Italians in the first
part of the game was very light. kiley
kept them well in hand up to the sew
enth inning, when they started some
pretty timely hits Up to the seventh
they had only singled out two safe ones,
and after the seventh and including it,
they pounded out six, and one was a
double. Each of the men on the Italian
team was credited with hit with the
exception of Comolli, who is supposed
to be the heaviest hitter on the team.
Kiley had the honor of striking out the
Italians star catcher twice. Weaferi |
was the only man on the Italian team
to secure more than single, and he
pounded out a double.
Stuart and Callahan were the heavy |
hitters on the Barre team, each of them !
getting two hits, and one of Stuart's |
was double, Half of the six hits were
well scattered, but of the other half |
three singles came in succession and |
brought across two scores. Fowlie and
Stuart both laced out pretty double,
but Stuart was the only one to score.
Fowlie's came with two out and the
next man up famed. Other times the
Barre men hit the ball well, but each
time the Italians were able TO field il
with the exception of thrice.
These three were errors by Weaferi,
Lyons and Giaeamuzzi. Weaferi tipped
upon a bunt laid down by Peduzzi just
after Giacamuzzi had let one of Kiley's
hits 60 by him. Gordon sacrificed the
two around another station. on a bunt,
and it was now up to Fowlie or Smith
10 score one or both. But alas Fowlie
swung his head off striking out and
Smith popped a fly out to Lyons at
short. This ended their chances in the
second inning. Another error was made
BY Lyons when he slipped up and let
me OF Gordons speedy grounders 60 by.
But no i'll was done, as Gordon got no !
arther than first base.
The Barre men made only two errors,
,ne Of these being costly. With a man
N third, Johnston let one Of Comolli's
through his fingers. and the
nan on third scored. The other had
10 bad results. II was made by Cor
