four of these occasions He is not
alone, however. in having an edge
on the locals. for out of eighteen
games between the two clubs the
Grinmen have been victors but twice.
Joe Judge Ha. Big Day.

rounds, Erickson was nicked for
five runs Three hits accounted for
a couple in the first. Strunk walked
