The Red Roses won the second and
final game of their current series
with the Owls on Thursday night by
score of 6-2 Gene Major went
the route for Hagerstown, with
Crumling behind the plate, while
"Chet" Beres, right handler, went
all the way for Lancaster, with
Frank O'Neill doing the catching.
1t was a 30 ball game until the
ninth inning, when the Red Roses
put together three hits and a walk
for three runs, to put the game on
ice. In the early innings Major,
who was being hit hard all through
the game, was taken out of trouble
by the excellent defense of his team
mates, who came up with three
double plays.
There was no scoring until the top
half of the third, when Beres, the
first man up, doubled to right Glica
followed with a walk, but Freese
hit into double play, with Beres
moving to third, and it looked as
if Major was out of trouble. But
Ripken, the next man up, singled to
left, scoring Beres with the first run
of the ball game. Collins then end
ed the inning by Aforcing Ripken at
second.
The Owls tied it up in the bot
tom half of the fourth when Hidden
opened the inning with a double to
center, and Keller scored him with
a single in the same direction. But
the rally died right there when Gene
Hixson the new center fielder sent
in from Charlotte, who had doubled
to center in the second inning, flied
to left, and Caravello and Crumling
both grounded out.
The Red Roses went ahead 81 in
the top half of the fifth. Major issued
walks to the first two men to face
him, Glica and Freese, and Ripken
promptly sacrificed them along.
Collins was up next, and he hit a
double to right, scoring both run
ners. But NAstbury lined to Hidden
at first, who whipped the ball to
Caravello, playing second, and Col
Inns was easily doubled off before
he could get back.
The Owls picked up their second
run in the bottom half of the sew
enth when, with two away, Hidden
drew his third walk of the night.
Keller then sent him home with
double to right, but made the third
out when he tried to stretch his blow
to triple.
That was all the scoring until the.
top half of the ninth, when the Red

the two teams met on Wednesday
night and the Owls came out on top
by a score of 7-5.
With the exception of the fourth
inning, when the Red Roses scored
four runs, and the ninth in which
they got their final marker, Joe
Dickinson was in control all the way,
to wrack up his fifth win in six
starts. Gene Crumling did the catch
mig.
Ed Yasinski, a right handler, who
was charged with the loss, started
for Lancaster, but was knocked out
of the box in the seventh frame and
was relieved by Bob Glane, a left
handler, who went the rest of the way
During the six innings that Yasinski
pitched, he gave up seven walks and
was further hurt by the poor defense
of his teammates, who were charged
with seven errors. Jack Elkins was
behind the plate.
The Owls got their first run with
out hit in the bottom half of the
first frame. Yasinski walked Chaser,
the first man to face him, who
promptly stole second and then went
on to third when Elkins' bad throw
went into centerfeld. Wheaton al
so walked, and then CHASER scored
while Hidden, the next batter up, was
being thrown out at first. Keller
then grounded to Williams at first
for the second out, and Kelly ended
the inning by popping up to the
shortStop.
That was all the scoring until the
bottom half of the third when the
Owls made it 20. Wheaton, the
first man up, singled to center and
Hiden followed with walk. Then

at first, the catcher threw the ball
into right field, with Wheaton NOV
ing to third and Hiden to second.

with Wheaton scoring after the
catch. Then Elkins, the catcher,
made another bad throw trying to
get Keller going down to second on
the throw-in, but when Hidden tried
to score on the play, he was thrown
out at the plate. Caravello then
flied out to center to end the in
ming.
But the picture changed in the top
half of the fourth when the Red Roses
picked up four runs to go in front AZ
