Second Game
Bill Wigle went the route in the
nine3inning second game and shut
Allentown out in every inning but
the second, when they scored their
lone run. Christie was behind the
plate, with Polinski going to right
field.
John Griggs, right handler, was
the Allentown pitcher, with Abram-
son catching. Ciaffone played first
base and Cunningham (the Cards
regular first baseman) played right
field.
The Cards went ahead 10 in the
second inning, when Muzzo singled,
went to second while Mclean was
being thrown out at first, and scored
on Abramson's single to center. The
side was then retired on the first of
three double plays completed by the
Owls
In the third inning the Cards had
runners on first and second and no
body out, but Wigle then settled
down and retired the side without
any damage.
He walked Muzzo in the fourth,
but then struck out Mclean, and
Muzzo was also out trying to go to
second on a perfect peg from Christ
lie to Martin.
The Cards had two men on in the
sixth, but again the side was retired
on a strike-out which was converted
into double play when Christie
again threw perfect peg, this time
to Daddario, to retire the runner
trying to make second.
Wigle gave up hit in the seventh
and the ninth, but neither of them
did any damage.
While all this was going on, Griggs
was pitching almost perfect ball for
seven innings. He retired the side in
order in the first frame, gave up
walk in the second, that did no harm,
and the Owls got their first hit in the
third, a single by Bobby Martin the
first man up, but that's as far as it
got, as Wigle flied out to center, and
Ermer and Jenis popped up to the
infeld.
1t was three up and three down in
both the fourth and fifth innings,
and in the sixth, Cal Ermer hunted
down the third base line, the ball
rolling foul, but then rolling back
in again, and he beat it out for an
infeld hit But Jenis grounded out
and Keller flied out, to end the in
ming.
Again in the seventh, with one
man out, Daddario doubled to left,
but the break came in the bottom
half of the eighth, when twelve men
went to bat and five runs crossed
the plate. Here's what happened:
Martin, the first man up, got his
second hit, single to right. Wigle,
attempting to sacrifice, hunted right
back to the pitcher, and Martin was
forced at second. Ermer laid down
a sacrifice, but was safe at first when
Ciaffone booted the ball, and Wigle
pulled up at second. Jenis then
walked, filling the bases Keller
| followed with a single to left, Scor-
ing Wigle and Ermer, with JeniS
going to third. Christie singled to
left, scoring Jenis, and when Muzzo
booted the ball, Keller went to third
and Christie to second. Daddario
was then given an intentional pass,
filling the bases. Yeash then sent
slow roller down the third base
line, scoring Keller, and then, when
Mclean booted the ball, Yeash was
safe at first and the bases were again
loaded. Polinski then singled to
center, scoring Christie with the
fifth and final run of the inning, and
leaving the bases still loaded. Mar
tin, up for the second time, flied to
short right, with the runners hold
ing up. Wigle then grounded out
short to first to end the inning.
