on balls. Meiser hits into a double play
forcing Swanman out at second, Brad to
liver. Meiser out, liver to Lohr. Boo ad-
vances to thisd on the play and scores on
Huelsmann's hit. Pool struck out.
The third inning for the visitors was the
only inning of the game that the visitors
were able to bunch their hits and three of
these were for additional bases. Wolf,
the first man up, gets a two bagger and
scores on Donahue's three base hit. Dona-
hue scores on Hoy's two-bagger. A mo-
ment later Hoy makes dash for third but
is thrown out, lam to Eros. Dreschler gets
base hit but in trying to stretch it into
one for two stations is thrown out Hick to
Brad. Boo and Swanman were both hit
with pitched balls causing things to look
rather serious for the locals. Although
Meiser went out on fly to Brad putting
an end to the agony for the time being.
The visitors scored no more until the sixth
frame. Boo, the first man up, struck out.
Swanman gets on by Lohr's error. Meiser
drew base on balls. Swanman worked the
pitcher hard at second base, causing Iver to
let thrown ball slip through his mitt.
Swanman took advantage of the opportun-
ity offered and raced for third base. Brad,
who recovered the ball, made wild throw
to third allowing Swanman to score. Huels-
man went out on fly to Brad and Pool
was thrown out, Brad to Lohr.
The visitors drew blank in the seventh
but in the eighth they counted once and
| tied the score. Boo, in the latter frame
was the first man to bat and he gets a safe
hit and is advanced to second on Swan
mans sacrifice. Meiser went out by Lohr
unassisted and Boo going to thi.d on the
sacrifice. Huelsmann gets safely on when
Erad fumbles his grounder and Boo scoring
on the same. Pool gets a safe hit but
Wolf struck out retiring the side with the
game now tied and thus it stood until the
opening of the Twelfth chapter. Hoy, the
first man to bat in this frame, gets safe
hit and steals second. Dreschler struck
out. Boo drove grass cutter to left field
that should have been only hit for one
base and holding Hoy at third, but instead
Burn let it bound off his mitt to foreign
territory and by the time he had recovered
the ball, Hoy had scored and Boo was safe
ly on third. Swanman struck out. Boo by
this time was getting anxious to score so he
was taking long leads off third. Jam made
a couple of unsuccessful attemps to catch
him at third but on the next attempt he hit
the runner in the back allowing him to
score. Meiser struck out. Therefore, with
perfect playing in this inning the visitors
would have been chalked up with two hits
and no scores. The locals in their turn at
bat in this frame were unable to start any
thing that would put them on the load to
victory. Burn and Gil struck out, Brad
was passed on balls, he stole second and in
stealing third he was thrown out Huelsmann
to Dreschler. Brad safely made the steal
but was tagged out when he slid over the
base.
Swanman who did the twirling for the
visitors pitched stellar ball with the excep-
ton of the opening chapter and it seemed
as though the longer he worked the better
he got. He allowed only FIVE hits, struck
out eighteen men, passed eight on balls
and hit one batsman.
Wells, our local twirler, pitched good
game and with proper support he should
have been credited with winning the game.
He allowed thirteen safe hits and only in
one inning did they come in punched
form, and even at that they were not of a
discouraging nature. He struck ou: elev-
en- men, passed three on balls and hit two
batsmen.
