J. "". -.t!
FRIDAY BY 6-7


rain at New Ul1n last Friday, is the
answer for the question, Why did New
Ulm lose? The big twirler for the
Fairmont team surely had the stuff
and he delivered it in mixed doses,
striking out IL New Ulm batters,
handing passes to 7, and allowing 10
hits. Then to make matters worse,
he also grabbed hit off Stephans in
the second inning, which didn't do any
good, however, as he became victim
of a double play nicely executed by
Daugherty and Turen, and then in the
fourth frame added run for Fsirmonts
after Stephans had started him out
with a wa k. Paulson was the big
feature Of a game full of features.
Stephans Pitched Well {
Stephans pitched we'll and would
have won his game had it not been for
the disastrous wolloping he got in the
first frame. Only three men walked
on Stephans, and in spite Of seemingly
sure hitting tf the Fairmont crew, the
score book shows only 9 hits charged
up of Stephans, one less than of
Paulson. Stephans struck out four
men. '-
Fairmont, however, managed to
bunch their hits when they were
needed the most and if they didn't
have enough hits at particu az time,
s3me New Ulm player would be ready
with an error tc hep the thing along,
Daugherty SHINING in that respect
twice and Deppe, Thompson and
Stephans adding one each. This was
not at all bad, however, when one con-
siders the fact that a drizzly rain
during the first half OF the game made
the ball slippery and hard to handle.
Fairmont was luckier in this respect,
only two errors being charged up
against the visiting team.
Born Stole Home
Daughtery was the heavy hitter of
the day, starting out his work in the
first frame with three Dagger, but the
bases were empty with two out before
and nothing happened to make run
out Of the long clout. The most
spectacular play cf the game was
Born's stealing home in the last inning.
Only three two-base hits were made,
Houle CT New Uln being responsible
for one and Swanmann of Fairmont
owning up to both the :thers. Taking
the game as d whole, the New Ulm
team played better ball than did Fair
mont, with the exception of the first
inning which gave Fairmont lead of
four runs which was nearly overcome,
the game ending by score of to 7.
t First Inning
Watts, center fielder and manager for
Fairmont, led off with a fly which
landed nicely in the hands of Daugher-
ty. But then the trouble started |
Radtke got an infeld hit. Narum
pushed through hit along third. |
Swanmann drove grounder to |
Daugherty who didn't get control of |
it, thus filling the bases. Then came
Lano with a two Dagger, scoring
Radtke and Narum. With Swan
mann on third and Lano on second, !
Brown hit a strong bingle, scoring !
both the others. Fredette hit a high !
one which Turen got under. Boulet
hit a grounder to Houle. who threw
Fredette out at second, Daugherty |
covering the sack. Four scores forl
Fairmont, which was never quite over
come. ~
Houle was made the first victim of !
Paulson's pitching, tanning out. 'Turen
flew out to Watts in center field
Daugherty hit the ball square and hard |
and stretched what would have been |
bingle into a three Dagger when
Watts misjudged the bound in, center
field and never touched the ball at all. |
Deppe decided to wait for 'em and |
drew free pass. With two men on
bases, Born hit an easy one tc Lano at |
third who threw him out at first. No
Second Inning ,..
Big Paulson was the first man up to
bat for .Fairmont in the second. He
didn't do a thing but lam out hit.
Watts hit d foul which d. mas hue very !
cleye-ly got under, having to rur wayI
back for it.. Radtke. grounded to
Daugherty who stepped on the second
sack, forcing Paulson out and s:thenI
heaved to first in time to get Radtke, /
a very pretty double play. ( II
Paulson walked Thompson, Guend-
ner and Donaghue in straight success
sion. This was toe much for some oil
the Fairmont players and the Fair
mont fans came streaming from out :
of the grandstand to join in the f
general rag chewing. Umpire Laid
was given all the blame for the walks.
The Fairmont team took recess while
the matter was talked over" Paul ,
son, however, did not enter into the
rag match but conducted himself
