The Birmingham age-herald., 1922-04-04


 Digging through the old score book, looking for features, one finds pretty good proof that Doc Newton's 8 old souper IS far moro sound than the Ejnstein theory. It looks like the Doctors Finn has returned to effectiveness. He pitched to the Co., loneis for three innings ana held 'em hitless and scoreless for the pe- riod his altitudinous frame deco rated the slab. Another feature was that Kangaroo Neun hopped further into fame, and further into the hearts of Birmingham fans, due to his bril- liant crss around first. Neun is the cost sensational first-sacker afield r-'u has represented Birmingham in iundry moons and 8 fraction.
 Whitey In Form
 lefty Earl Whitehill, just back rom !, visit to the Pirate training lamp at Hot Springs, started the bat tle for tke Barons on the mound. Lefty had a little bit of everything. but mercy. holding the Colonels to four safe-blows in as many innings --one per frame. The run the Colonels taliied off his delivery was ono of those gift affairs. Betzel SCOT ing after he had been given life on an errcr. So, bearing in mind Burk- ett's boot and subsequent score by .he hoctee enc finds the Louisville slucgers made not a single earned run off tie combined deliveries of Whitehill Newton and Railroad Nichols.
 Looking over the swat summary 1t is noted that Tommy Taylor, the Jes- ter, biSfed more feroeiously than any one Baron. The turbulent one got a triple and single out of four trips to the plate. Doc Silva also was quite promscous with the willow, getting a couple of two-ply wal1ops out of four times up. The other Barons who hit, contented themselves with one blow each. For Louisville, J. Kirse and Ballenger led what there was of an attack. Kirke got triple and single out of four attempts and Ballenger got two sim gles out of quartet of trials.
 ColoneIs Score Once
 The Colonels scored in the first inning and then called it a day. so far as the tallying line was con cerned. Lamb pulled a mole and grounded out to start the inning. Betzel hit tp Burkett at short and Jess garbled it, Betzel going safe al first. Massey ballooned to liar per, but Kirke dropped triple f'~'tNN SAAthsiA AO tht odh PoAAOh AA1 left and Betzel negotiated the run ways for a tally.
 Moley called for vengeance in the Barons' half. Doc Silva looked 1t up in the dictionary and found it in the N's. Doc leaned nightly against one and il sailed to the freckle factory in left for double. Nouns fly was smothered by Ellis in right, but Stump Clarke tried to de-ear Ballenger With a line drive, which went for 8 ssfe smack, and Silva counted Clarke took second on Harper's in- field out, strolled to third on wild pitch by Estell. and ambled home on Tommy Taylor's blow which sailed over Lambs head in center for three bases. Krehmyer poled one to Ellis in right and the inning died.
 Barons Score Again
 The Colonels failed in their half of the second, but the Barons put across another. Burkett was first up and took one of Esteirs fast ones on lis shoulder. He was sacrificed to sec ond by Robertson and Wlritehill played third in hand with & double 10 center, scoring Burkett. Silva popped out to Meyer but Neun came through with pinch single to right. It was a short single. however, and when Whitehill attempted to score, pretty throw from Ellis nabbed him
