Blue Sox And Pirates Tangle
In Seventeen Inning Contest
HIGGINBOTHAM AND LAS.
TRES PITCH SUPERB BALL:
TERMED GAME OF YEAR"
BY CONTRIBUTING WRITER
(Contributed)

The game of the year, or, in
fact in several years, was played
Sunday at the Army Barracks
Persons who didn't go really did
miss a thriller. The Blue Sox
and Pirates tangled in seven
teen-inning game that really had
fans, who were there, and, in
fact, ball players on both teams,
wondering what the outcome
would be. The game lasted from
1880 pm. to 5:35 pm.
The contest was started as
though the Pirates were going to
walk away with it. They scored
three runs in the first inning
They came back and scored one
more in the third inning.
Paul Higginbotham, pitching
his first game at the Barracks,
went all the way for the Blue
Sox, while the Pirates used three
hurlers, M. Sanchez, H. Molina
and D. Lastres.
Danny Lastres, who returned a
few days ago from organized base
ball, played and pitched a swell
game. He performed at first
base for the Pirates until he took
over the mound in the ninth in
nings. The Blue Sox had only
collected two. hits off him until
the fataf'seventeenth: $1,000: !
Both ball clubs were tired, but
neither would yield the other an
inch of ground. Both fought hard
70 win, and after seventeen in
nings of playing superb ball the
Blue Sox won. The Pirates de-
serve just as much credit as the
Blue SOx. 1t was no runaway
for either team. Both knew that
they were in ball game. Both
should be very proud to have
put up such magnificent ball
game.
This ball game had everything
that baseball fan would want to
see. In fact, no one left the ball
park until the game was over.

Rodriguez caught the whole sew.
enteen innings. while Paul Hig.
ginbotham pitched the entire
game. Paul was in trouble in
the first inning when the Pirates
lgot to him for three runs and
came back later to score their last
run. They were really getting to
him. Then, all of a sudden. the
boy must have found himself, as
he pitched marvellous ball from
there on. He was in trouble sew.

The next batter popped up tc

game.
The boy that was injured in the
game, while hit by a foul ball
is doing very nicely. Up to now
there isn't any danger. The bal
players and fans wish him a quick
recovery and hope to see him on
and running around.
