we'll played game by the score OF
to 5. The feature play of the game
was hard running catch made by
Aiken, Bridgeville's center-helder |
When the ball left the bat, it looked |
like sure triple, but Aiken sur
prised most of the fans by sprint
ing hard and fast and just man
aged to reach the ball and hold 1t
as 1t was passing over his head.
FELTON, scored two runs in the first
inning on two walks, a bunt and
hit But Bridgeville came right
back in its half of the first and tied
the score on hit by Willen, who
was sacrificed to second by Kel
Hoch and scored on MERGERS dou-
Bile. Then after Stratton grounded
out, We'll came thru with single,
scoring Mercer for the second run.
In the second inning, FELTON, went
in the lead again by scoring one
run on single and two-bagger.
This lead was held until the ending
of the sixth when BridgeIalle
staged rally and scored four runs
on a single by Stratton, double by
We'll, a triple by Priestley, which
was the hardest hit ball of the
game, and single by Hopkins.
This heavy artillery put Bridge
Vile in the lead for the first time
by the score of 6-3. But FELTON,
shortened that lead in the Begin
ming of the 7th by scoring a run on
two passes, a passed ball and a
flelder's choice. And in the eighth
inning FELTON, scored one run again,
bringing up the score 6-5 in locals
favor, but in Bridgeville's half of
