Game.
With all breaks against them, cam
bridge lost heart rendlnS game To
Parksley, at that place, yesterday
The same luck that has been with
the club since the opening game was
again evident. Whenever Fortune
had a chance to favor one OF the two
teams she turned her back upon
Cambridge, and gave her smiles 10
Parksley.
The breaks began as early as the
first inning, when. after Burt hao
been thrown out, Johnson and DuHy
hit hard singles, which were kept III
the infield somehow. Brown popp-
ed nm to the third baseman, and
Flowers nailed one at the same man,
too hot for him to handle, but he
lnckilv knocked it toward short.
keeping it also in the infield and pre-
venting a run from scoring; Usiiton
then hit. hard grounder straight al
the shortstop, who threw him out a.
first, ending the inning with tnree
hits and no runs for Cambridge.
Parksley took the lead in the sec
ond ON a base on balls to Klinedinst,
Steinfelt's fielder's choice anu
Thompson's double to left. Ines
scored again in the third on he
wells single with one out, and FISH
er's double to center.
The Cambridge club started WORK
in the third, and netted two runs
Johnson walked, to start the inning.
Duffy hunted a fly to the catcher IN
ortemptine to sacrifice, Johnson TAX
ing third. Usilton then hit one
over second, too hard for kllnedlnst
to field, scoring johnson and FLOW
ers. -. -: ..-
1t was in this inning that the
second break occurred again IN
Parksley's favor. After klinedinst
had flied to Burt, Steinfelt cracked
4 long one to left field, that looked
good for two bases. However. the
bail struck upon a slanting sign
hoard near the fence and bounded
over for a home-run, putting PARKS
lev in the lead, which she held TO the
finish. In the sixth, Parksiey talll-
ed another and in the seventh scar
borough went in, relieving Wright
and Immediately choked the bases
1t was here that ..Augie" Schroll
that dashing young man from Balti-
more went to the mound, and after
forcing one man across, fOrced the
next two batters to ground out, one
more run scoring while Flowers was
throwing out runner at third.
The ninth inning brought with 1t
a grand and glorious rally for cam
bridge, and is a strong proof OF their
sterling quality as fighters to the
last ditch. But here, also the
breaks were against them, and the
rally fell short two runs.
Burt started the inning with
single to left, Johnson following him
with another. Duffy hit sahrp
one to Klinedinst, who played the
ball to second for Johnson. Hewell,
taking this throw, was full stride
off the sack, but the umpire called
Johnson out. "Bcb" Brown then
nailed a long one to left field. the
ball seeming to go over the fence,
everybody believing that it really
had done so even Brownie" who
overran second and was on his way
to third when he was tagged out. 1t
was one OF LQe greatest SUI PiiSC VI
the game, when the ball was thrown
in by the left fielder.
Burt had scored ON the hit, and
Duffy was now on third. Flowers
corked one to left field that struck
the fence and bounded back into the
field, going for two bases. The
shortstop then gathered in Uslton's
sharp grounder and the game was
over.
1t would be different story, if
things had not broken as they did in
that ninth inning. Should Johnson
have been called safe as he really
was and Brown not been caught on
his hit, Flowers hit would have
been on second with no one out. But
it's all over now. and there's no use
crying over spilled milk: But, if
Fortune ever takes it into her head
to side with Cambridge on a few
breaks, somebody is going to be in
for some terrible beatings, for the
boys are now thoroughly fighting
mad and will scrap for everything.
