Palisadian. [volume] (Cliffside Park, N.J.) 1906-current, 1915-07-17

Palisade won a fifteen inning game
from the dashing C. M. S. team of
Hackensack at the Fairgrounds last
Saturday by the score of a to 3. 1t
was anybody's game up to the last
minute, and lasted 2 hours md 40
minutes. AS an example of high art
in baseball, it was a game worth
travelling a days journey to see. From
start to finish it was crowded with
snappy, brilliant plays. The G. nj.
S. team ranks very high. 1t had won
six out of its nine starts this season,
having "Vic" Noble for their mound
artist, who beat Palisade July s..
when he led the Fort Lee A. G. to vic
tory. Noble is very remarkable
pitcher. He has good curves, very
fast one, and he fields his position
with unuslial skill. No better field
inr pitcher has ever been seen in
Palisade.
For Palisade, strictly home bat
terry covered the points, Paul Brady
and Ray Dwiggins. Ray has lost
Lone of his cunning, and caught a
beautiful game His ability to hold
the mastery work of Brady justified
manager Logan's selection. He threw
well, and was right there all the
time. Brady had the G. M. s. team
at his mercy all the way through. lie

yielded two safties in the sixth. Up

sympathies were placed in Noble VINO
has won most of the Fort Lee VIC
tories for ire season. They fairly
made the grand stand shake with their
rattle tattle of baseball chatter. Har-
per sent hot skinner to short which
Ruckenbrod fumbled, Noble and Mey-
ers scoring, Blauvelt reaching third.
When Meeks flew out to right, Cad
len completed perfect double play
by hustling the ball to Dwiggins who
nipped Blauvelt at the plate.
Palisade got the first run of the
game in the third Ruckenbrod singled
to left, stating second, Albert hitting
to center also, Albert going to second
on Beckmann's hot ball through the
second Easements legs, the batter
reaching first. Ruckenbrod having
gone to third tried to come in on
Beckmann's drive, but fine throw
from right by Lutkins caught him
at the plata fine play. Beckmann
was caught mapping at first and de-
clared out on a very doubtful decis-
ion on a quick throw by Harper to
Blauvelt. Logan went out on a
grounder, short to first.
Again in the fifth Palisade got a
run on three singles. Brady doubled
to right, and scored on Ruckenbrod's
hit to center. Dwiggins had struck
out, Albert flew out to left, Beck
mann hit safely to center, Logan
grounded out again, short to hrst.
The game remained two all till the
twelfth, when each side scored one
run. For C. M. S. Dederick hit slow
roller which Ruckenbrod fielded per-
fectly, but the runner beat the throw
for a single. He reached second when
Dwiggins threw wild to second, and
got to third on the play, Ruckenbrod
letting Beckmann's throw in pass
him. also. Masters and Brockner both
struck out, and Dederick scored when
Noble sent a slow roller to Albert,
who allowed the ball TO slide slowly
through his legs. The ball was so easy
a baby could have picked it up. This
was heart breaking error, for 1t
gave C. M. S. the lead for the first
time in the game.
Then Palisade came to bat in the
twelfth and tied up the score again
on a three Dagger by Goemann to
right. after Place had gone out on a
fine catch in the crowd of his foul
fly to Harper. Brady got to first on
fielder's choice, Goemann scoring
Ruckenbrod flew out to center.
The game then went through three
innings more. Brady retired the e.
M. S. side in one two three order.
In the thirteenth Palisade almost
scored again. Albert struck out,
hit long hard liner to center when
seemed sure for homer. but Deder-
lex jumped away up in the air and
pulled it down, as clean robbery as
was ever perpetrated, Beckmann
being caught at first on double
play, as he had gone to second when
Logan drove the ball for center.
