second game, eight to four.
The locals won the morning game
solely through their playing. Wonder
full stops. catches and brainy all around
playing helped Tomasi out of many
hole. Gray had all the better of the
pitching duel, and deserved better for
tune than fell to his lot.
The second game was won primarily
through errors, at times opportune for
Barre. A'barrage of them in the third
inning gave the local boys six runs,
and put the game on ice, as was later
shown.
The Morning Game.
Neither team was at all dangerous
for the first three frames. Gray struck
out six of the nine men that faced
him. threw out another, and forced the
other two to lift flies to the outfeld.
The fourth inning saw the first real
baseball of the game. Only by air
tight playing was Graniteville prevent
ed from scoring. Freeman, first up,
sent a grounder past third and stole
second. Starr placed one in the same
place, but Parks made wonderful
barehanded stop Of it and chose 20
play for Freeman at third. Both men
were safe. Freeman took long lead
off the base, and Comolli snapped the
ball to Parks in time to get him. just
previous to this Starr had logged TO
second, believing that Comolli would
let him go down without trouble. "A
quick peg to Wilson, however, put him
out of the way. Graham grounded out,
Wilson to Newton.
The sixth inning brought Caldersra
into the limelight as a game saver.
Rieiarella slammed a terrific grounder-
between third and short which looked
good for at least a single, but Calde-
rara got his bare hand onto it, and by
quick snap to first got the runner.
The next man shot liner almost in
the same spot, and Put" grabbed that
one handed.
The eight and ninth innings gave
the fans some samples of fielding that
have not been equalled in a game on
the grounds this season. Nieora cap
tured Freemans fly in the eighth in
deep center, falling into the centerfield
wire fence as he made the catch. The
next inning, with Graham on second
waiting to score, he made sensation.
al barehanded catch of Polli's liner.
Granitevile did not shine with bril-.
liant plays in the field, not because
they were inferior felders, but simply
because Gray held Barre almost help
less until the ninth. In that inning,
after two were out, Comolli slashed
a liner to short center, and took second
on a wild throw to catch him off first.
A minute later he scored when Thomp-
son let Newton's long hy get away
from him after a long chase.
The Afternoon Game.
The afternoon game was complete
reversal in form on the part of both
teams from the playing in the morn
ing, but a great deal Of the loose play
ing may be attributed justly to the wet
grounds and wet balls.
Both teams went well for two in
