Kebs to ground out and flaming Sanchez and Taylor.
Barker less for tate and the opposition rocked
him with straight hits to @ out in front 10.
Mickey (aLagruder) Mcdonald, first man up in the
second p1astered ball into left field for a GER
tain homer, only to be limited to a triple when he
sprawled in tn mud from the third line. Cold
faden next up, famed, but Barker singled, scoring
Mickey with the tieing run. Bauer followed with a
hit but both he and Barker were left as Ifrinak
famed and Messner flied out. From there it was
goose egg after another for both teams until the
7th.
Grenbelt starting off that stanza, looked none
dangerous, AS Taylor, Mcdonald flied out but Gold
faden reopened the offensive with aiming single
through the infield. Barker next up, duplicated
Donald's second inning hit with a sure homer into
left, b, as rounded third, that mud puddle skid

get back to the bag but called out on a close
play. The Reps 2, Carr Bros. /.

Arnold and Wynn to ground to the pitchers box while
