On Tuesday night it looked, for
awhile, as if the Owls would break
their third place tie with York and
take undisputed possession of third
place. Martins double and Nowak' S
single gave us one-run lead in the
first inning. York went one up on
us in their half of the third, when
Romans triple, Slopes single and
Henry's double pushed over two
runs.
We tied it up in the fifth on
Johnny Fesh's single and Mierko-
VICES double. But in the seventh,
Martins error, Romans double and
Joe Napoles' error gave York a
couple of runs, to put them out III
front again, 4 to g. We had good
chance to tie it up in our half, when
Martin opened the inning with sim
gle to center (his third hit). Nowak
went out short to first, Martin taking
second. Merky then got an infield
hit to short, putting the tying runs
on base, but Rothman flied to right
and Merky was doubled off first.
Up to that point it was real ball
game, with Morgan pitching four
hit ball, supported by some sensa-
tional fielding by Rothman in center
field. But in the eighth, the lid
blew off and when Brett finally took
Morgan out and took over the pitch
ing chores himself without even
warming up), five runs had crossed
the plate, with only one man out
Two more scored before Brett could
retire the side and the ball game was
over right there. The final box score
was York, IL runs, on IL hits; the
Owls, runs, on hits; with each
team making three errors. AS. far
as the errors were concerned, the
big difference was that all our bob
bles figured in the scoring, while the
three miscues made by York did no
damage.

The Labor Day game here Mon
day night produced one of the most
unusual plays iii baseball. In the
fifth inning, Napoles opened with
a doubled to center, Labanara
grounded to Gracey at short, who
bluffed Napoles back to second base
and then threw to Sweeney for the
out at first, but Sweeney dropped
the ball and Labanara was safe.
Welch, the next man up, sent low
topper to short, which Gracey tried
to snag, right on the grass. He
missed the catch, but had the ball
trapped. Both runners, uncertain
whether or not he had caught it,
hesitated between the bases.
But when Gracey threw the ball
to first to retire WEIGH, the umpire
ruled that WEIGH was out, but that
Napoles was entitled to return to
second and Labarana to first.
This was not case of an "auto-
matte infield fly out" but is definite
ly covered in the rule book, which
says that when a ball is trapped, the
runners can return to their origi-
nal bases, if those bases are unoccu-
pied. The last time I saw such a
play was in the Yankee stadium
some years ago.

There was another big argument

ming. With Randol on third and
Griffith on first, Griffith was caught

back up until Randol had crossed

that he was safe, as Thomas foot
was on the rubber when he whirled
