city SUNDAY dlLeT having dIl DE-
cidefit on the Keys and conquer
ed the locals. The visitors show
ed great courage and sportsman
ship on their part. Chief Forth
of the Hialeah Fire Department,
and manager of the club should
be congratulated for he sure has
a bunch of good sports.
Carbonell started on the mound
for the locals but was given poor
support. In the third, J. May hit
to short and Acevedo funbled
the ball but luckily he got past
that for fast double play start
ed by himself that stopped the
visitors for a while. In the
fourth Carbonell was not SO
lucky. Gabriel dropped Rainey's
fly and the runner reached sec
ond. Singles by Owens and
Yancey scored him. $
In the sixth Owens hit to first
and Carbonell went to get the
throw at first and dropped the
ball-and there were two outs at
the time. AgainEsingleSrby Dew
heurst and Yahcey-scored the
runner. In the seventh the WISH
tors scored their last run. B. May
singled and Saab duplicated to
left. The ball got away from
Gabriel and both runners adj
vanced a base. Pare singled and
the final Hialeah run came home.
Bethel went in and stopped them
cold as he did for ten innings in
Miami a week ago. This gave
Bethel IL and 2-3 innings against
Hialeah without allowing a run,
and only three hits.
Albury poled a homer in the
seventh to give the locals their
first run. The previous Sunday
il was Albury who blasted a
homer in the tenth to break up
the game with Hialeah and win,
] to 0. And before that he hit
a four-bagger against Railey-
Milan to save the game.
In the ninth inning of the game
at Navy Field Sunday a single
by Gates and double by Griffin
gave the locals their last run. In
this frame Albury famed and
pinch-hitter John Navarro, with.
the tying and winning run on the
bases. went down swinging like
the mighty Casey.
Toby Owens, who pitched for
the visitors, is a hurler with Pine
Bluff, Ark, club in the Kitty
League. Johnny Pare, the catch
er, plays with Daytona Beach
Rine in the Florida State League.
G. Saab. the third baseman, is a
member of the Dothan, Ala, out
fit in the Georgia-Flori league.
The rest Of the players, as the
fans may have noticed, are very
good.
The locals had an off-day, but
hope return game is played in
Key West to give the Conchs a
chance to tell different story.
Fans praised Umpire Ordway
and after the game they claimed
they had never seen a bet
ter and more squarer umpire
anywhere.
