BASEBALL

Well, the way the locals lassoed, hogtied
and branded the Hooken Cows from So.
St. Paul, in Saturdays contest, was some
thing marvellous. Caps sluggers" romped
all over the Cows by waloping out hits
that were more plentiful than promises at
election time. At the conclusion of the
eighth round the score stood II to II with
the locals on the long end of the count.
The game developed into a slugging
match and there was more sensational
hitting in evidence than there is usually
crammed into a half dozen games. Dur
ing the afternoons performance, there was
a grand total of twent-eight hits made.
The locals getting seventeen to their credit
while the Cows "horned" in on eleven of
them. MANY extra base hits were recorded
during the fracas. The locals got six
which consisted of two doubles, three
triples and one homer; while the Cows
were registering five, consisting of two
doubtless one triple and two homers. Eos
was the locals leading slab artist. Out
of FIVE trips to the plate, he got two sin
giles, two triples and was given one free
ticket on balls which gave him perfect
record for the afternoon. He batted in
six runs and scored twice and his hits
were equal to eight bases. Out of Ny's
five trips to the plate, he walloped out TWO
singles, one triple and one homer that was
equivalent to nine bases, that scored five
runners. Duncan was the visitors batting
star, getting two hits out of five times up.
A single in the first round and huke
home run to right center in the fifth frame
with two men on. Chandler, who was
forced into the game as substitute, poled
out homer to left center that was highly
applauded by the fans.
The Cows made two runs in the opening
stanza on three singles, pass on balls and
Dts error. In the fourth they got two
more on a brace of doubles and Hens
error. Three more came in the fifth on
couple of singles and Duncans homerun.
One in the seventh on Chambers homerun
and three more in the eighth on a single,
triple, DTS error and Nors error.
The locals registered four times in the
opening frame. They came by the way of
two free tickets and three singles. Three
more in the fifth on two free tickets, three
singles, Hanson's error and Keelher's
error. Four more in the sixth on a couple
of passes, one single and two three bag
gers. One in the seventh on a double and
a triple. Five was recorded in the eighth,
developing from four singles, sacrifice,
homer and two passed balls in succession.
Hayes, who pitched the first five innings
of the game for the visitors had an abun-
dant supply of speed at his command but
he seemed to be extremely wild in hand
ing out his ware. During the five frames
he worked and the two batters he pitched
to in the sixth, he struck out nine batters,
passed nine on balls, issued four wild
pitches, hit one batter and allowed seven
hits. LaBiss, who relieved him in the
sixth, produced class of goods that the
locals took a particular fancy to. He al
lowed ten hits, FIVE of them for extra bases
and struck out three men.
Pr, the locals twirler, had the satisfac-
ton of handing back to his friendly"
enemies the very same thing they handed
to him on his debut in the locals
lineup on July 22nd, defeat. His support
