\ - The Gibson Miners yesterday at
ternoon, wanting to be fashionable,
were in one OF those hitting cpl
denies which has been affecting
this year many league and semi
professional teams and before the
afternoon swatfest was over they
had Dan Padillas brave warriors
showed under to the tune of IA to
6, The Miners secured eighteen
hits, Of which almost half would
have been avoided If the Grays had
] v done little faster fielding. The
Grays had an off day all around,
u1ina fielding, batting, to say nothing
of miserable base running. "TQots"
Teller started i'm the box for the
Grays and while he was not hit
very hard, he was very wild. After
pitching three innings and then
filling the bases in the fourth al
hmost all on account of his own
"a wildness, he decided to a&dicate in
favor of Sandoval, as the chief
wanted to save his arm for today's
game, as he has great confidence
>, he can hold the Miners heavy hit
tiers and turn the tables on them
Sandoyal pitched good b1il outside
OF the fifth inning, wheu the Min
IL ers punched most of the mis- made
off him. After that he steadied
down and several times pulled
IL, himself out OF tight holes. bringing
the crowd to their feet In the sew
-, enth inning when. with bases filled
twn down n
easy fashion, Catcher Angel, the
Babe" Ruth of New Mexico. In
fact, he struck out Argell three
times in succession. Eoth Teller
and Sandoval were given poor sup
port. their teammatfs making |
i1amsny mechanical eros as well as
- several errors of omission which
although they don't count in the
,r'', box score they hurt their teams
chances just as well Whitley for
the visitors pitched splendid ball
and was accorded fair support and
while his teammates made more
errors than the Gray they were
not so costly.

number as that was the total Off
runs they had secured, and put the

and center field for home run.
In the last inning with one man on
'z~~ base and two down, Ch'et Erwin
