IN THE SECOND GAME
WITH SHERMAN CLUB

The Pops played rings around Sher.
man yesterday afternoon and took the
second game of the series from the
visitors by the score Of So. The locals
hit Gressett's delivery at will and by
the aid of the bngles. costly errors
and a couple of passed balls, had a
walk-a-way with the contest Gressett
was not supported by his teammates as
he might have been. but tighter field
work would not have kept the slugging
Peps from victory although it might
have kept the score at lower figure.
Pops support Perfect
The Pops supported their twirlers
in perfect manner. The sole error made
by Pep was made by McAlester. who
occupied the mound for Ardmore when
the game was opened. This was Nc
Alester's first tryout with the local
team and he lasted just one and two
thirds innings. The Sherman team was
in its glory during his reign in the box,
for they touched him for three singles.
and in the second session sent two run
ners across the plate. The runs of the
visitors might not have been had it not
been for little boner which McAles-
ter pulled when, with Helms on first,
he picked up Moore's attempted sacri-
flee, and tried to head off Helms at sec
ond, but made q wild throw to Rey-
nolds, the pill rolling out to center
field. Helms crossing the rubber and
Moore going to third. Had McAlester
played for the man at first and taken
his time it would have meant n sure
out.
Big Six (Smilling) Barham broke up
Sherrnan's party when he stepped into |
the box. The four hits which he al
lowed were as scattered as they make
them, for each was made in a differ |
ent inning. Only three men reached |
second during Barham's twirling aud .
but two reached third. In the fourth
inning, Moore slammed a 2-bagger TO
left field along the foul line, went 10
third on McAloore' grounder to Bel
shaw. but was nabbed at the plate when
he attempted to score on Thomas
grounder 70 Behren. In the fifth session
Gressett grounded a dagger to center
field, reached third on Hellman's
grounder to Reynolds, but died there
when Griggs flied out 10 Jones.
The Pops scored their first tally in
the initial session when Payne walked.
was forced to second when Reynolds
walked, and came over the plate on
feung's uninterceptible grounder to left
just inside the foul line. In the third a
single, sacrifice a grounded out and
, passed ball brought Belshaw over the {
plate. In the fourth Webb, the Pops
new right fielder. hit the pill on q hot l
TO center field, which Nc. /
Moore permitted to whiz by him, and I
Webb made the circuit before the Sher-
nan center fielder recovered the ball.
Four Runs in Eighth {
The eighth inning was a humdinger I
'or the Peps, and by the aid of a
couple of errors and four singles. they
scored four runs. 1t started when with
'ne man down, Reynolds drove a groun- l
Ter to Moore that was too hot for the
Sherman second sacker to handle. All T
scoring might have been averted on {
he following play had NOT Moore muffed r
Thomas throw after Young had groun- T
led 10 third. A single by Webb filled b
he bases. and Reynolds and Young +
scored on Jones grounder 10 center. b
