The base ball reporter sent in this
interesting contribution this week:
The club met its first defeat of the
season on Saturday. The Denton
team came over with a strong outfit
and took the measure of our boys by
a score of 8 to 2. Our boys played a
better game than Denton, although
the breaks" were against them. Jim
Postles allowed only two hits and
struck out fourteen men, while Dem
ton only made two hits. Our boys
made several errors of omission as
well as commission. The desire to
knock the ball out of the lot in
stead of trying to place their hits
caused their defeat. Next Saturday
the strong Milton team will play
here. The boys have notified us they
are going to knock Postles out of
the box. Well, they have a mans
size job ahead of them.
