on time.
Too much credit cannot be given the |
"neety crew" from San Jacinto for the
grand game they put up every man was
right up on his toes all the time. They /
were ably supported by the fine pitching Of |
Harvey. who had lots OF stuff on the ball \
and succeeded in striking out ten Villas bat
ters in seven innings. The San Jacinto boys !
have a very well balanced team though the /
batting order could be worked over 70 ad- /
vantage. The Villas team has plenty OF /
good healthy boys and should have played |
better ball. but they simply had an off
day" and the next team to meet Villas had |
better look out for the 'wreclzinK crew"
from the Smelter way.
