Andy McNeal will please step 10 the
front and receive "a hero medal-one
of the kind that Andy Carnegie turns
over to the folks who have done real
lily valorou3 deeds Andy-McNeal,
not Carnegie--has glory sticking all
over him today. for at the most psy-
Geological moment imaginable, with
the cases full, he damned the leather
out TO deep right center and brought
! in the three runs that made the diff
ference between defeat and victory for
the Dukes yesterday afternoon. If It
hadn't been for Andy there's no tell
! ing who would have won or what the
score would have been. AS IL was
tho Dukes won and the score was 10
to Z.
Andys most ardent admirer would
not claim for him that his record with
the local team, prior to the glorious
happenings Of yesterday, had been
such as to entitle him to a suite Of
rooms I'm the hall of fame. Every
once in while he would make a hit
| but it so happened that II was always
when the game was already lost or
won, or that for some other reason
the hit didn't amount to anything.
Andy explained last night, however
! that this was all in the game, that he
has had a two-bagger bottled up in
! him for all these days, but that he
! has been saving ii for the time when
il would do the most good. There will
be few TO deny that Mr.. McNeal
picked the right time to nut that two
Dagger aer0ss yesterday afternoon
You see 1t was like this: The score
was 10 and we had the small end
| of IT, Not only that, but IL was the
eighth inning and we didn't have
much time to do what we had to do,
/ And then again, certain gentleman
who answers to the name of stony
| McGlynn, ably advised, aided and
abetted by Manager MeCloskey was
working all sorts of stuff on us, and
/ just at the time when we were surest
that we were going g. win we weren't
sure Of anything at all.
| Howard Murphy. whose other name
| is Pat. led off with a neat single and
took second when a throw to catch

| Humphries hunted TO third--of
course, to be sure, Just like that,
There was a man on third and only
one out and as old Father Time
strolled up TO the bat we all laid back
land hollered but for the second time
in the course Of the entertainment,
McCloskey signed TO stony to give
transportation to our patriarehal
rightfielder Adopting the motto,
safety First, Jack Bliss moved over
about half way TO first base and there
was no chance for Huelsman to get
at EN-. Four balls, and that put two
on with one down Red Herriott
could do no better than foul out to
Bliss. Then up walks Charlie French,
the foxlest Of them all and again
McCloskey flew the flag Of distress,
and four wide ones sent Charlie to
first. The bases were choked, but
they were still one ahead of us and
Davis, who had not been able TO do
n thing with the stick all day, was up
and there were two down.
Dave hit a teaser down between
third and short, and buddy and PEN
dleton both tried for it, with the re-
suit that neither one was able to
field it cleanly. PendletOn eventually
got the ball, but held it "A tribe too
long and Davis was safe, Murphy hav-
ing come in with the tieing run in the
meantime.
Ii was at this moment which. as
has already been stated. was extreme

came up, ana what Andy did was an
elegant sunicency thank you. lie
picked out the very best one that
Stony McGNnn had and sent il out
between right and center, and while
Thompson and Bauer were running
their legs off getting the bah lluels-
man, French and Davis came across
with more than enough runs to win.
a confusing play CAME up In the
third. when buddy was doubled off
third base on Pendletoni, ny 60 CEN
ter He had failed 10 touch the bag
before the fly was caught, and as he
ran across the plate practically eV-
erybody thought he had scored, The
bah was thrown to McNleal. who
touched the bag and made Die out,
and then il was thrown around the
diamond, ana many OF the fans
thought that Bliss. who WAS on second
at the time. was the man doubled For
quite while the bugs We're figuring
among themselves as to whether or
not buddy had scored
Walker Jordan started the game
for the Dukes. aud for a couple of in
nings it looked as If he We're going to

ed heady, steady game. He used his
head more than he did his arm~~or
to put II differently, his head was of
saore use TO him than was his arm.
