at first base, made four hits and
scored five runs in six times at bat.
Every member of the locals got one
or more hits off Sing, who was
knocked from the mound in the fifth,
and Register, who followed, was al
so hit hard and often. Milton played
heads-up ball and took advantage of
every break. Spencer stole home on
a slow return from the catcher to
the pitcher in the sixth. Lewis at
third accepted seven chances with |
out an error and Spencer at second
got several difficult chances, retiring
the runners at first. Two fast double !
plays were pulled off by Hall, Spen-
Ger and Copes that saved possible |
runs. Bailey aside from pulling down
several long flies in right, also hit !
hard and timely. Not one kick was
registered over the decisions made |
by Umpire Dan Wagamon.
