Well, the SIuggers We're smut
! out for the third straight time, and
| still Manager Hamlin thinks he
| has chance. Not with that out
fit, my dear Roy. Not chance
in the world. !
Casa has pitched twice against !,
the Sluggers. The first time he |
| allowed two singles and the Sec
ond time three, for in Sundays
game the official scorer credits
him with only two hits, but the !
Singers hit three. Gopher Con- !
zaIez hit two and Fruto one.
M. Aceyedo, four hits in eight
times up. 800; A. Acevedo. five
hits in 15 times up; A. Perez has
hit three safely in seven times at
bat, .42O; M. Pena five safeties in
10 times at bat, $50; H. Gates.
two out of four, 300; Castillo,
four in IA times at bat; Fruto, !
four in i3 times at bat, for an
average of $50.
Castillo has stolen three bases
and Machin four. Runs scored, I
Castillo has three, M. Acevedo A.
A. Acevedo has scored three and !
Machin three. /
M. Acevedo and Pena have bat
ted in three runs apiece, Castro
two and Casa two. /
A good suggestion to create in
terest in the national sport in this
city would be to form two clubs
after this series, the Pirates keep
ing their regular players. That
is. the following lineup: Griffin, c;i
Lopez and Casa, p; Pena, 1b;
Mayg or AL. Acevedo, 2b; Car
bonell, 3b; Castillo, IS; Acosta, If;
Perez. CT and Machin, rf.
It would leave the other club
the following players to pick from:
Rodriguez, C. Salinero, Bethel
and Sanchez, p; Medina or Ingra-
ham. lib; NJ. Acevedo, 2b; Gates,
3b; A. Aceyedo, IS; Fruto, Con- !
zalez. Garcia, F. Acevedo in the
outfield. / think this club will
give the Pirates a run for their
money. Pie Traynor can play any
position in the infield.
hope that the relief will do
something to help us fix up this
ball field. With few dollars the
infield can be fixed and any ma
jor league club that is training in
Florida can be brought to play |
here. And look at the advertising
this city will get from it!
We can easily get the Giants.
the Browns and other major clubs
and the city viii benefit there
from. ! hope that something is
done to our infield, for it is in a
terrible shape. Let's hear from 4
Mr.. Sheppard and Mr.. Demeritt
on this.
! noticed that on Sunday the
Singers played errorless ball.
Well that is better than the Pirates
for they made one miscue. think
the manager of the Sluggers used i
good judgement when he sent in I
Griffin to right in the place of
Scott. The score was one to moth /.
ing and before the inning was
over three flies to right scored L
three runs and showed up Pitch
er Sanchez sbadly. for the Pirates
had up to that inning three safe
blows to their credit, and the good 1
fielding Of Griffin converted three
easy flies to singles. II showed
good judgement on the part of 4
someone. with the score one to
nothing, changing players.
think a record has been hung
up as the Pirates have shut the
Singers out in 81 consecutive in
nings, and held them to nine hits.
! hope the Sluggers win break the
ice next Sunday. Let's wait and
see.
With a club like this. I believe
they can give the Pirates a good
stiff fight. The first to be A. Aee-i
yedo. IS: Pie Traynor. 2b: M. Ace
yedo CT; Gates. 3h; Fruto. If; Me-
dina or Ingraham. ID: Rodriguez.
C. Gates or r. Aeevedo, IF: Bethel.
Sanchez. Martinez or Salinero,
pitching. and you still can use
Gopher. Lneilo or seviiia in an
emergency. Let's see If the Pr
rates consent to this. and we thea
will be able to see 3 real baseball
game. something We haven't seen
for . long time.
Another good club can be form
cd with the AeeYedo family. with
Al Rodrignex behind the plate.
