IL INNING BATTLE
(Continued from page one. }

I
again distinguishing himself by a
pretty throw home Witt was first up
for the locals and as he apparently
didn't want to daily around the bases
he connected at once for one of his
famous clouts. The speedy third
sacker was we'll on his way to second
before some of the fans realized that
he had hit it. 1t was a pretty bingle
and Vaughn had long chase to re-
trieve it. The c1out was good for
three sacks, but Witt would be salts
fed with not less than four. In this
he outguessed the fielders, who, act
ing on theory that he would stop at
the third station, were slow in return
ing the ball, and the throw home ar
rived too late to shut off the home
run. After things quoted down the
locals went ahead with their inning
Sullivan and Shea were easy outs, but
Conner singled to center and then
came home on Keefe's double to
left. Tommy Davidson took three,
but left his team one to the good.
All quiet in the eighth and st.
Johnsbury stock above par, and it
should have remained so but for the
gift to Greenough. He was the first
up and the locals seemed to vie with
each other in helping him around the
circuit In the first place Shea FUN
b1ed a grounder, giving the visitor
a life. Hoernle contributed a wild
heave which gave him second and
then Davidson uncorked a wild pitch
on which the lone base runner reach
ed the third station. McManus then
came up and smashed a single into
left, scoring Greenough and spelling
the locals chance of giving him an
entire free trip. Way sacrificed Nc
Manus along but Campbell and Early
were easy outs.
The locals were unable to break
the tie in their last half and what
had been battle now resolved itself
into a siege, and the observers set
tied back into their seats determined
to see it out, supper or no supper.
Tommy, who showed a little wear1-
ness in the ninth took on new life
for the extra innings, while the big
Eli man was perceptibly weakening.
Neither side was able to change the
score in the tenth, and again in the
eleventh both were retired in order,
with Way stalling at every chance.
Way opened the twelfth by ground
ing out. Campbell got a life on
Shea's second misplay and reached
second on a wild pitch. Early and
MeGuinness were easy outs, leaving
Campbell stranded. Shea singled to
left, was forced by Conner, who in
turn was given the same dose by
Keefe. Tommy advanced the alter
nate twirler with a single to right. |
The stage was then set for Manager
Moore to win the game, with two out
and two strikes on him, but "Pie"
interfered. The next ball was a moist
one, but it broke bad for the
twir1er passing the batter about three
feet behind his back and allowing
Keefe to walk home with the decid-
ing score. The big Yale twirler
watched the course of the erratic
splitter, with ruefu1 look, then re-
gained his usual calm, smiled broad
ly at this prank of fate and started
for the bench.
''some game expresses it as well
as anything could.
