YORK HERE
Sunday, September A.

The Owls, playing their last home
game of the season on Sunday after
noon, broke an all-time Interstate
League record when they battled the
York White Roses for % innings.
The final score was York 3, Hag-
erstown 2. A double-header was
scheduled, but the second game was
called after one inning, due to the
Interstate Leagues Sunday curfew
law
1t was, without question, the best
game seen in the stadium all year,
and was marked by not only superb
pitching, but also by almost perfect
defensive play-only one error was
committed during the entire game
and there were six double-plays, two
by Hagerstown and four by York.
Ancherico started for the Owls
and pitched the first Ia innings be-
fore being taken out for a pinch
hitter Che left the game with the
score tied 2-2) Wheaton pitched
the last nine innings and pitched
shutout ball until the 23rd inning,
when the winning run scored. Kell-
er was behind the plate for the first
Ia innings, with Crumling taking
over the catching chores in the 18th
and Keller replacing Bird in right.
Woolford, the young lefthander,
started for York, but was driven to
the showers in the seventh when
the Owls tied the score. Loveness,
a highlander, relieved him and
pitched shutOut ball until he was
taken out for pinch hitter in the
18th and King pitched the last five
frames to get credit for the win.
Sheehan was behind the plate for
the first II innings, and then Whit
tingham took over the catching
chores, with Plate going to first.
York took a one-run lead in the
second inning when Spencer doubled
and scored on Whittinghams single.
That was all the scoring until the
seventh and here's what happened
in that inning:
In the top half, with one away,
Angel singled but was forced at
second by Nottingham. Sheehan
then singled, with Nottingham
stopping at second, from where he
scored the Red Roses second run
when Woolford also singled. Jack
Kelly then popped up to end the
inning
But the Owls came right back
and tied the score in the bottom
half. Keller, the first man up,
walked and went to second on Helm
baugh's single. Harbaugh was up
next and he grounded to the pitch
er, who threw to, Luciano in time
to get Keller sliding into third, with
Heinbaugh taking second and Har-
baugh safe at first on the play.
Dykes then singled to center scor-
ing Heinbaugh, with Harbaugh hold
ing up at second. Bird was up next,
and with the count three balls and
one strike, Loveness relieved Wool
ford. Bird greeted Loveness with
single, scoring Harbaugh with the
run that tied up the game at %,
with Dykes going to third. Bird then
broke for second and on the throw
Dykes also broke for home, but was
thrown out at the plate on a very
close play. Ancherico grounded out
to end the inning. Both runs were
charged to WooIford.

Second Game

OOCOuu OaIne
Eddie Ancherico pitched the nine
inning second game, with Keller be-
hind the plate and Hidden playing
right field.
Schmidt was on the mound for the
Blue Rocks, and Oswald again did
the catching.
Although Ancherico gave up IL
hits, he was unbeatable in the clutch
and was ably supported by his team
mates, particularly Gene Hixson, the
centerfielder, who had the unusual
experience of being credited with
three assists.
In the second inning Mathews sim
gled to left, and Werner then flied
out to center field. Mathews was
halfway between first and second
when Hixson caught the ball and
was thrown out before he could get
back to first, when Gene made a per-
feet peg to Harbaugh, completing a
double play.
In the third inning Butler the first
man up, singled to center, and Os-
valid sacrificed him to second
Schmidt then came through with
another single to center, but when
Butler tried to score on the hit, Hix-
sons perfect peg to Keller nipped
him at the plate.
In the sixth inning, with one away,
Mathews singled to center, and Wer-
ner followed with a single to left,
with Mathews stopping at second.
Butler was up next, and he flied out
to Hixson in center field, and Genes
peg to Heinbaugh caught Math-
ews gefore he could get back to sec
ond, for another double play.
With both pitchers throwing shut
out ball, it looked as if the game
might go on all night, but the Owls
got a break in the eighth frame to
pick up the run that won the game.
After Dykes had grounded out and
Chaser flied out to left, Kelly got a
single to center. Keller followed
with another single to the same
spot, with Kelly moving to third

the shortstop, to stop Keller from

First Game

Warren Pickell went the route in
the opening game, with Crumling
behind the plate.
Jack Brittin, who was voted the
Most Valuable Player in the league
by the SportSwriters' and Broadcas-
ters' Association, was on the mound
for the Blue Rocks and won the
game, to become the first pitcher in
the league to wrack up 20 wins.
Oswald was behind the plate.
The game was a pitchers battle
for the first five innings, with both
pitchers hanging up goose eggs. But
Wilmington got to Pickell in the
sixth, and here's what happened:
Tesauro, the first man up, singled
to center, and Romello sacrificed
him to second. Whalen was up next,
and he singled to left, scoring Tes-
auro with the first run of the game.
Woods came right behind him with
double to left, sending Whalen
across the plate. Pickell struck out
Mathews for the second out, but Wer-
ner came through with the fourth
hit of the inning, a single to left,
driving in Woods with the third and
final run. Butler ended the inning
by flying out to right.
While Pickell gave up nine hits,
four of them in the big sixth in
ming, Brittin set the Owls down with
two, single off the second base
mans glove by CHASER in the fourth
inning, and double by Keller in
the seventh. Brittin had no strike
outs and walked two, but he was
particularly effective with men on
base.
