The Legion partly evened up matters in the next inning when Koshak gained life at first, and later scored on a single by Junge.
 Again after two more were cut in the third, the Moose collected fiuke hits for four runs. Bill Schmitz tore single through Lowe, stole second, and took third on Manning's long fly after Grum- melt had whiffed. A wild pitch sent him home.
