Marsh and his hackers very busy day
in retrieving the ball. The locals started
right off the reel to land on his offerings
for safeties and before the side had been
retired the locals had accumulated three
singles and three doubtless that gave them
total of six runs.
In the second round he was successful
in sending the locals back to the field
scoreless, but in each and every remain
ing frame he was hit quite freely, and
after the first two batters up, in the last
round, had pounded the pellet out for
singles, he retired from the mound and
Myers finished the game. In order to do
this he was obliged to pitch to only three
batters. Loh the first man to face him,
had unfortunately selected bat with
hole in it. With the first couple of balls
delivered, Lob was compelled to look
cross-eyed, to get glimpse of the ball,
and for failing to strike at the pellet when
it wigwagged across the plate, he was
called out. But during that time Myers
had made a wild throw to second, allow
ing both runners to advance one peg each,
and moment later they were advanced
another station on passed ball. This al
lowed the first runner to score, and left
Yves on third. Sher was finally passed on
balls. With Yves on third, and Sher on
first, they flashed signal across the dia-
mond to pull off double steal. Sher
accomplished his part all o. K. but Yves
got cold feet and stopped on the runway,
which caused him to be thrown out, Myers
to Johnson. Thorn went out by the aerial
route to Morey, retiring the side.
VOL, the locals port side artist, was
back in the game Saturday and he was
selected to do the twirling. By him getting
the best of support from his teammates,
he got away very nicely in the opening
chapters. After the visitors had punched
enough hits 6ff his deliveries, in the fifth
stanza, to enable them to get three earned
runs, Thorn was sent out to relieve him.
Thorn allowed no more hits and was able
to hold the visitors scoreless.
The visitors made their first counter in
the opening frame. Johnson led off with
an infeld grounder that was juggled long
enough by ON to allow johnson to reach
first. Johnson went to second while
Comant was being thrown out, liver to
Hick, and was advanced to third on Han
sons out, liver to Hick. Marsh got sin
gle to left that scored Johnson. Morey
struck out, retiring the side.
The visitors scored no more until the
opening of the fourth round. Marsh, the
first man up, lifted high fly, out between
left and center, for three-bagger. Morey
went out on foul fly to Yves. While
Lundstrum was striking out, VOL heaved
one over Loh's head that allowed Marsh
to score on a walk. Otto was tossed out,
VOL to Hick.
With the opening of the fifth frame,
Coulter got single to short center..Porter
hit into double play, forcing out Coulter
at second, ON to liver, and Porter was
thrown, liver to Hick. Johnson hit
grounder through the infeld for single,
and Comant was passed on balls. Han
son got double, between center and right,
that scored Johnson. Comant and Han
son scored on Marsh's two-base smash.
Morey was thrown out ON to Hick, end
ing the agony for the time being.
With the opening of the sixth, Thom
went out to show his wares. Lundstrum,
the first to face him, was promptly struck
out, but Otto hit an infeld grounder, and
reached first on Iver's error. Coulter hit
into what promised to be double play,
but it couldn't be pulled off in time to
get both runners. However, Otto was
forced out at second, liver to ON, and
Coulter was safe at first on a felder's
choice. Porter was thrown out, ON to
Hick, sending the visitors back to the field
