Johnny Laycock is an excellent
finger, but Mercury might have
used better Judgment by sending
Emil PfeiI against the ShamrOcks.
However, Pfeil himself Is mana
ger of the team and must have
known something not apparent to
others who thought the Mercury
mound star was the logical choice.
At that, Laycock pitched better
ball than the score shows. His
support was off color at times.
Aside from Mccormick, no Sham
pock player stood out as star. It
was unusual that each member Of
Otterback was the only Mercury
player to smack the ball safely
more than once. He hit triple,
