| Special to Times Republican.
| Mason City, Aug. s.-Thanks to the
liberality of wild Bill Audler, the
Ansons were able to take the first
| game of the series Monday in the first
| inning by the score Of to 1. Audler,
bakers, was ineffective from the start
| and before he had pitched a full in
ming had to be relieved by Fitzpatrick.
Murphy and LeBeaU drove out three
| baggers, while a single and a walk
brought in another. In the ninth in
ming the fourth run was made when
| Richardson had Snow cut off at the
plate. but dropped the ball. After
Fitzpatrick went in he famed the two
| remaining men and retired the side.
| No earned runs were taken off FitZ-
patrick and in reality the game might
| have gone to the locals but for the bad
| first inning of Audler.
Murphy started the game for the
| Ansons by leaning on one of Audler's
offerings for three Dagger. Ryan
| singled over short, scoring Murphy,
and Eunick sacrificed him to second.
Lunte walked and LeBeau hit another
| three Dagger when Audler was recall
ed and Fitzpatrick was sent in and
| famed the next two men, Lee and
Prough. retiring the side.
Penner Wild at Times.
Penner allowed only six hits, which
were kept scattered but was wild at
| times. allowing three bases on balls
and striking out three men. Fitzpat-
rick famed four and walked two.
After Fitzpatrick went in the visit
ors were held scoreless until the ninth
! inning when they forced over one run.
Snow singled over short and was ad-
vanced to second on a sacrifice hit
| by Penner. Snow was called cafe at
third. Ryan hit to Fortman, who
| threw to cut Snow off at the plate.
Richardson dropped the ball and gave
| the Ansons their only score besides
| those taken off Audler.
CIaybakers Earn Lone Run.
The Claybakers brought in their
single run in the fourth inning, When
Brown hit the boards in the left field
fence with a two base swat. Black
| got a long single to right field Wnlcn
scored Brown, Black taking second
on the throw in. He was advanced
| to third on q single by Schroeder, but
died there as neither Kensel nor tagg
| were able to do anything to help
| things along. The fourth inning was
possibly the only rally made in the
] game, except in the seventh, When
Penner blew up for a short time.
| In the second Fagg was an easy
out on a ground ball, Ryan to Proush.
Richardson hit an easy one to Eunick,
| who was too sure Of the play ana
| threw wild to first base, giving Rich
ardson a life. Fitzpatrick hit to Pen
ner. who caught Richardson at sec
| ond, but Ryan was too slow to make
the double. Brausen then singled
over short and with one Of the best
chances in the game to tie the score,
one Of the kind of plays you read
about was pulled.
Fortman hit Texas Lacquer into
center field, which looked like a
safety and would have scored both
FITZPATRICK and Brausen had not Lee
pulled a sensational stunt. Coming
| in from deep center, Lee on dead run
caught "Dutch's' blow few inches
above the ground, the circus play re-
| firing the side. The same kind OF
play was pulled off by Fagg IN the
seventh on a fly from Murphy.
/ After the seventh the game for the
Il Claybakers proceeded without further
i chances to score. Both Penner ano
Fitzpatrick pitched good ball and hao
| good support. The score:
MARS1ALLTOWN.
