Bussey won the lues-Bussey mix for
the Coaldiggers, played at Bussey, yes
terday afternoon. The game was a
hard fought battle between pitchers,
one in which Shoemaker of the Blues
and Marnell were evenly matched.
Boil. allowed four hits and each Writ
fed a dozen. The game was errorless.
In the last half of the ninth frame
Shoemaker hit the first man at bat,
struck out the two following, passed
two to first and then allowed BusSey
to single, hit which scored Bussey's
winning and only run.
Manager Brown is satisfied with the
rearranged lineup and says that from
now on he believes the blues will play
different ball. Since the shake-up,
more life has been injected in the
playing and more organized team
work is apparent.
