anything but close and interesting.
Monte presented weak lineup.
klecker. the southpaw, did the twirl-
ing. He was hit hard and often and
several scores were due to wild pitch
es. This coupled with poor support
allowed Alamosa to cinch the long
end of the 500 purse early in the
game.
Gomez was on the mound for Ala
mosa and threw a good game. Some
long hits were made off his delivery
but they We're usually gobbled up by
the fielders Mason knocked one in
to deep center, in the 4th inning,
good for three bases which he
stretched into a home run on an
overthrow to third.
Monte scored one run in the first
inning, one in the second and 2 in the
fourth. Alamosa scored in nearly
every inning and at the close of the
game had chalked up 16 to Monte's
