Town, Score 1910.
Cocky Anokans Surprised at Way
Princeton Put Things Over and
Took Starch Out of Them.
In weird SUGGEST, which was in
doubt up to the last half of the ninth,
Princeton finally triumphed over the
fast Anoka team on the latter's home
grounds last Sunday. The final count
was IL to 10 and everything was
pulled off in this game that was ever
seen or heard Of in ball contest. The
game was won and lost by both teams
several times during the fracas, but
eventually it fell Princeton's way and
stayed there for keeps.
Galley, first up for the Princetonians,
started the game auspiciously when
he banged out a clean single. Doane
flew out to left, Berg struck out and
Mons. Galley looked as If he was
anchored to the first station for good.
Fisher was next up and drove out a
vicious liner that sailed serenely over
the canvas fence in deep center for a
clean home run, Scoring two runs for
the opening inning. Anoka retaliated
in their half by punching two singles
and triple by Wellman. These clouts,
with an infield error, netted them three
runs, giving them a one run lead.
Both teams went out in order in the
second. Princeton opened fire again
in the third and when the smoke from
the bombardment had cleared away
the score board, rendered reluctantly,
marked up three more counters for
Manke's troupe of fence busters. It
happened thusly: Galley again led off
with hit and took second when o.
Leary booted the ball. Doane beat out
bunt that carried the big first base
man to third. On the next pitched
Doane tore for second and, while An
Okla was retiring him at this station.
Galley Slipped home with another run.
Bob Berg kicked in with single and
Fisher was up again. Just to show
that his first home run wasn't an acct
dent the stocky little backstop smote
another over the barrier for another
clean home run, scoring two more
counters for the visiting team.
Apparently this got the Anoka's out
fits nerves, for they cut loose with
everything they had in their half of
the third and, when the gong finally
stopped the slaughter, five big markers
went up on the official score board to
the home teams credit, and they were
again in the lead 8 to- 5. The Anoka
fans settled back with a feeling of
satisfaction that the scrappy Prince
tonlans were squelched for the rest Of
the afternoon. The fourth round pro-
duced nothing for either team and It
began to look like Anoka's ball game.
Doane opened up the. fifth with a
Texas Lacquer to left field and, by
some daring base running and a piece
OF luck, stretched his single into a
double. Berg came through with
double that scored Doanc and brought
the score up to to 8 in Anoka's favor.
SLOWLY but surely Manke's athletes
began to cut down the Anoka lead.
With two down in the sixth frame
Buck" Anderson, Princetop's import
ed pitcher, drove the bali over the
gunnysack fence just inside of the
flag for two-base hit, as the ground
rules called for. Galley came clean
with his third hit for the afternoon and
the Anderson boy romped home with
number seven for Princeton. In the
lucky seventh the visitors tied the
score, making it eight all. With two
gone Smith was safe at first when
Brlere booted his hot grounder down
the third base line. Grow dropped
one in back of the shortstop position
that Wellman let get through his
myers, and all hands were safe, Mark
planted neat little single in the left
sun garden that Smithie scored on
without any trouble. Score to 8.
Princeton kept up their good work
and took the lead away from Anoka
IN the eighth, when they pushed two
more runs through the registering
booth. Anderson took notion that he
had better win his own game and poled
one over the fence for a four-base
ride. Doane further gummed things
up with another single and then stole
second. A moment later he started to
steal third. Mccarthy peggcd wild to
third to catch him and the little GEN.
ter fielder scooted home with another
run.
Anoka finally realized there was a
real contest on and, not liking the
looks OF Princeton's two-run lead. thew
1rove in two runs in their half of the
e'ghth and put the score back again in
to a double bow knot-ten all. Cor
belts double, an error and three
singles did the work. A pretty throw
IN to the plate by Smith from deem
left spoiled another run for them in
the melee. Princeton fought gamely
