eagerly coming back for more. IL is
rumored that they have improved on
their performance OF last week while
the same is true of the locals.

looked for any day. since the discov-

recently he held the opposition -
three hits and won his game easily.

during the week and il would not be
surprising if before long "Sullie"
takes his regular turn on the mound.
