tunity that offered and managed to push
three runs across the platter in the open
ing stanza. NJ. Peterson the first man to
face Bur was passed on the first four balls
pitched and he went to second on passed
ball. 0. Peterson was thrown out, Shu to
Gall and NJ. Peterson made no effort to
advance on the play. Ross was passed on
balls and on Ferguson's hit to right, M.
Peterson scored. The ball being thrown
to the plate allowed Ross to advance to
third in safety while Ferguson was
obliged to hit the dirt in sliding into
second. Bleier got a single that scored
Ross and Ferguson. jacobson was thrown
out, Dts to Gall, and Nuckleby struck
out, retiring the side.
Bur then held the visitors hitless and
scoreless until the opening of the fourth
round. If he had of been given the ad-
vantage of close decision at the plate in
this frame, he would have sent the visitors
back to the field scoreless again. Nuckle-
by struck out, but Odenwald drew base
on balls. Carlson hit what came near to
being a double. Odenwald was forced out
at second, Shu to Dts but Carlson reached
first in safety. M. Peterson got single
through second and on o. Peterson's sin
gle to center, Carlson scored from second,
with the aid of the Umps, and a moment
later NJ. Peterson scored on a passed ball.
Ross was thrown out, Del to Gall, that re-
tired the side with one earned run. Then
in the sixth frame, Odenwald led off
with a single to left and went to second
on Sher's error. Carlson was passed on
balls. On NJ. Peterson's single through
Short Odenwald scored and Carlson went
to third. M. Peterson went to second with
no opposition. O Peterson struck out. Ross
got single that Dts could not handle, al
lowing Carlson to score. Ferguson struck
out. Bleier hit fast grounder down the
third base line that cut the center of the
bag for hit. NJ. Peterson scored, but
Ross thinking the Umps called it foul,
went back to second to find it already oc-
cupied by Bleier. Ross was easily tagged
out on the base line by Bur, unassisted,
for the third out. During the remaining
three frames the visitors were held score
less, although they connected for a single
in each frame.
0. Peterson, who was Manager Sol
helms selection to do the twirling for the
visitors, pitched an artistic class of ball.
Besides, he was given perfect support. The
only play that could be construed into an
error was made by O. Peterson himself,
when he issued wild pitch that ad-
vanced base runner. During the first
three rounds of play, with the noble assist
he got from Bleier, the locals were held
scoreless. But in the last of the fourth
round, he was nicked for three we'll earned
runs. Del led off by striking out. Dts
was passed on balls and on Calls single,
both runners were safe. When Eos had a
count of and 2, Dts pilfered third. Then
with the next ball delivered Gall sprinted
for second drawing the play to that corner
thus Dts dashed for the plate and he slid
across the rubber in safety for the first
run. This daring double steal seemed to
get O. Petersons goat. However, he
struckout Eos, but Sher got a single to
left that scored Gall. Wor was passed on
balls and Ny was hit with pitched ball,
filling the bases. Bur came across with a
single that scored Sher but the best Shu
could do was to ground out, M. Peterson
to Ross.
In the sixth frame two more earned runs
were made. Eos went out on pop fly to
M. Peterson and Sher struck out Wor
was passed on balls and scored on Ny's
to left. While Bur was
selecting his favorite "willow" he was
"riff-raffed" at quite freely from the
bleacher lines and in vengeance thereof,
