BRATCHI DELIVERS.

The outstanding feature OF Sundays
victory of the Crackers was the four
base Clout of Fred Bratchi. who last
year was patroIling left field for the
Chicks and who is now on Charley
Franks roster. Fred, who formerly
dropped many balls over In Spadeland
while on the payroll Of the Chicks,
showed his former admirers that he is
still there with the home run habit,
and bowled one hlgn among the cullud
brethren in the third inning.
Bratcht was tickled to death that he
bagged that homer, and especially be
aus 1t happened in Memphis. He
pulled off his cap, jumped into the air,
kicked his heels together and grinned
so wide that, nothing could be seen ex-
cept his teeth.
Herndon duplicated Bratchi's feat In
the seventh by shooting the ball over
the right field wall.
Pitcher Boone, of the Crackers, is
very naturally called Daniel, but his
initials are J. A. He comes from the
University Of Alabama.
Sam Mayer, Cracker captain, hit the
longest drive of the season In the firsH
inning Sunday, rapplno one Of Eddie
Fosters fast ones to the center field
fence, the ball hitting the boards on
the first bounce. Mayer tried to make
three bags on II and was called out at
third, although he looked safe.
