ocALA EVENING STAR, TUESDAY. July Is. 1922
WILDCATS WORSTED
GOodbred Featured in a Six to Two
Score in Favor of the Gaines
vile Boys

1t was very little effort for Gaines
vile to put the hooks to Ocala in yes
terday's game. The local fans be-
come so accustomed to top-notch ball
playing that they could hardly believe
their eyes yesterday when the team
seemed out-classed by the visitors.
Gainesville piled up three runs in the
third inning and Ocala was never able
to overcome their lead. At that the
visitors were not satisfied and added
another three runs in the ninth.
The Gainesville team played excel
lent ball, making only two errors and
displayed an ability to hit when their
men were on bases. They secured only
nine hits but on two occasions bunch
ed three of those in one inning. Ocala
got eight safeties but only two times
did she get more than ore in an in
ming and then two hits was the best
she could do.
c. o. Goodbred pitched a good
game for the visitors. He famed
eight men and only allowed eight hits.
His control was good and his ability
to work out of nasty holes was re-
markable. He seemed to retire the
Ocala swatters without a hit if hit
was to mean a run.
M. Overstreet performed for Ocala
and pitched a very good game but he
had poor support. The team fielded
poorly and even the fielding of Over
street himself was not up to the mark.
He made several fumbles in the box
that were costly. In spite of the fact
that the game was slow and full of
bad plays there were few outstand-
ing features that are worth remem-
bering.. Villirno caught thrown ball
on his first sack that was hard one
to get. Chancey made pretty catch
of a hard foul popped up by Liddell.
Collins ran back of second and robbed
Rymer Of pretty Texas Lacquer in
the sixth. Harry Wood caught line
drive between right and center that
was headed for the Star Publishing
Company's sign for at least two bases.
Rymer pulled one down in left field
that the Gainesville, boys were GER
tain was over the fence. They were
yelling "Go get that one next Tues
day" but Rymer decided to grab it
out of the atmosphere rather. than
run it down. Leon made a nice catch
of Chanaey's fly in the eighth.
The hitting was more sensational
than the fielding. Villirno fattened his
average by getting three out of four.
Jones did pretty well with three out
of five. Rymer also raped on three
out of four while Harry Wood and
Leon each drove out two out of four.
Ocala scored in the first inning.
Taylor famed. Van went out third
to first. Leon singled to left and
stloe second Rymer singled, scoring
Leon. Gainesville made three in the
third. Vilirno led off with a single to
center. Jones hit to the pitcher who
was overanxious to get two and threw
wild. Lindsey went out second to
first. Chancey hit to Taylor, who had
chance to get two but errored and
got none while Villirno scored. Jones
was caught mapping on third and Ed
die Overstreet added his scalp to the
long string that bangles at his belt
Pfeiffer singled to left and scored
Chancey, going to second and third on
the play at the plate. White singled
to left, scoring Pfeiffer.
Ocala scored again in the sixth
Leon led off with single. Rymer
flew out to second. Eddie Overstreet
hit to short who fumbled chance fol
double and both runners were safe
Wood singled to left, scoring Leon
In the ninth Gainesville messed the
game all up. Collins led off and drew
