az the right time nor connect with
Dutch" Holeveck's twisters while
Pioneers pounded Ennis hard
Casperson has got some stun in
that old pill and will make somebody's
batting average look sick. When he
was going good Saturday he colided
with Ferguson in the sixth inning,
spraining his wrist
Pioneers will greatly miss Jimmy
Taylor. the crack third baseman.
Jimmy is member OF the Delaware
Militia that has been ordered for bor-
der duty. Jimmy has been putting up
classy game for the Pioneers This
season, both AT the bat and I'm the
field and has greatly helped 20 put
the team in the pennant chase.
Dick McElroy. the former Parkside
outhelder has put his John Hancock
TO a Pioneer contract and will Irob
ably play in the double-header Sat
urday.
Dutch Holeveck is out for a
worlds record. Not a run has been
scored off Dutch the twenty-five in
nings he has pitched in the league
nor has he given man his base on
balls.
owen Dougherty, whose great
pitching won the pennant for Vande-
yer in the All-Wimington League last
year. will pitch one Of the games next
Saturday.
Frank Glenn, Pioneers sensational
center fielder is clouting the ball at
400 clip. Frank connected with En-
mis- delivery Saturday for a double
and two singles out of four trips TO
the plate. Franks war club is TAX
ing no pity on any of the All-Wil-
mington's pitchers.
Johnnie Getzenberg's bat also
cracked out three hits. which keeps
him I'm the 400 class Getz is also
putting up fine game in right field.
Jimmy Taylor is still leading the
team in batting and extra base hits.
Ferguson Is putting up one of the
best games of his career in back Of
the bat. Only three men have stolen
on him in the last four games.
Mat Donahoe is still clubbing
them hard and fast and is playing
the first sack in big league class.
Hutchinson added several more
noints to his batting average Satur-
day, getting two hits off Ennis.
There was some roofing at that
game last Saturday. Know the rea
son why? Barney Fagan and Jerry
Lynch were out with their heavy ar
tillery. Come out Saturday, fellows,
and add four more companies to your
commands.
Pioneersl DO not forget to be on
hand tonight A big baseball rally
and great big time is assured. All
the players on the Pioneer team are
requested 10 be present at the club
rooms, Ninth and Market streets.
Since Frank Dunn has taken the
managerial reins Pioneers have been
putting up the best game in the
/ league.
Franks fielding is always OF the
frst-class order. and he Is also clout-
ing the old horsehide hard
Whenever a ball Is hit in Jimmy
Taylor's territory, II is no use for a
runner 10 try TO beat his throw to
first. for Iimmy's throwing to first Is
the best ever seen in Wilmington.
Frankie Glenn has no respect for
the catchers in the All-Wilming gtor
. League. Whenever he gets on first nc
sacrifice Is needed TO get him or
second.
Something wrong with RIP" Nc
Ardle's batting eye Saturday He fail
ed to get hit
Jimmy" Huston, Eastlake's fas
left fielder, made great running
catch OF Getzenberg's fly, that seemed
good for a hit, and robbed Getz Of {
1000 batting average for the day.
Pioneers will play their old rivals
Brownson. a double-header Saturday
These will be some games, and vii
be worth going miles to see. Botl
teams are great friendly rivals ant
Will battle hard for the games. Brown
son is putting up a classy game al
present, and Manager Dunn's team
has made the last four teams they
have played bite the dust. The big.
gest crowd OF the season will prob
ably sec this game. and there will
be some noise.
All Pioneers and their friends should
be out TO these games and root their
hardest for Pioneers.
Don't forget the big smoker and
baseball rally tonight, Pioneers.
