HI-LINERS COP
KERNEL SERIES

The Hi7Liners won heavy hitting
contest yesterday and cinched the ser
les with the, Mitchell Kernels. The
game was a nerve racking exhibition
from the standpoint of the spectator
but the locals played sir tight ball and
the visitors didn't have a chance. The
Hi-Liners used three pitchers during
the game. ...
Everything was peaceful, as far as
the scoring goes, until the third when
the locals got the first run of the
game. Bell, who was on the rubber
for the Hi-Liners was in trouble ev-
cry inning but his team mates gave
him beautiful support and he pulled
out alright. In the third a single by
Bell, double by Schuler and o.
Shaugnessys error gave the Hi-Lin-
ers their first run and the only un-
earned run of the game for the locals
The Kernels came back in the
fourth when McCafferty clicked the
pill for the circuit, tying the count at
/ to /. In the last half of that in
ming Gilbert sent bingle to O'Shaug-
messy and was caught at first. Wenz
flyed out to short and Dean drew a
pass. MEME followed and parked the
old apple under the score board for
the cleanest homerun of the game,
giving the locals two run lead. No
scoring in the fifth but the sixth was
a wild inning, both sides batting all
the way around. Bell was relieved by
Enger in this inning. O'Shaugnessy
first man up for the visitors, hooked
up for a homerun. Two singles, a
triple and a double added three more
counters to the visitors score, making
the count 5 to 3. 1t didn't stay that
way long though as Wenz singled and
Dean kissed the ball out of the park
in right field, tying up the count
again. Four singles in a row put Del
man and Carlson over the plate and
left the count at to 7.
In the eighth single by Delman, a.
sacrifice by Carlson and double by
Enger brought in another run, the fl
nal one for the locals. In the ninth
Deans poor throw to first after he
had made beautiful catch let Bus
Ter get life and single by McCaffer-
ty put him on second. With two men
on Enger was pulled and Finch took
the mound. Zweifel drew pass and
Duff flyed out to Schuler. Schuler
threw the ball between left field and
third for a passed ball that allowed
Busler to cross the pan for the final
count of the game. Nolt drove one at
Meme with two men on but Menne
made pretty catch and retired the
side with an unassisted double play.
Duff was pinch hitting for Foug in
this inning. a.
The unassisted double play by Men,
ne and another double, Lane to Dean
to Meme, featured the fielding while
heavy hitting by both sides kept the
spectators on the anxious seat thru
out the game. One of the surprises of
the game was the getting of a single
and double by Enger out of two
times up. Delman batted five hundred
yesterday. He was batting left hand
ed for the first time and clicked the
ball every time up, getting thrown out
the first two times. Wenz made two
pretty catches yesterday, picking
long flys off the left field fence. Nc
Cafferty was the hitting star for the
game, getting two singles, a double
and homerun out of five time up. A
couple of errors should have been
charged to the jumps but the score
keeper was scared of fine and let
them pass. -n
The Hi-Liners are an entirely diff
ferent team than they were when they
left for the road trip. They are fight
ing all the time and clouting the old
apple mighty regular and their. field
work is perfect. With little strong
er pitching staff they are due to make
things uncomfortable for the rest of
the clubs before the season is over.
The Hi-Liners play the Kernels again
today at 8 80 with Delman on the
mound. Aberdeen, who is four games
ahead of the Hi Liners in the percent
age column, opens here tomorrow for
two games. Michaelson, the White
Sox pitcher, will be here today and
will probably pitch the opener against
Aberdeen tomorrow.
