Anderson (the losing pitcher)
started the seven-inning first game,
but was relieved by Perrin in the
fifth. Terrell did the catching.
Easterbrook went the route for the
Giants and although he only gave
up one hit, he walked eleven men
and was charged with three wild
pitches. Boetto was his battery
mate.
Hagerstown got the first run of the
game in the third on two walks, a
wild pitch and force out That was
all the scoring until the fifth, when
Trenton iced the game with a six
run splurge.
Rodin opened the inning with a
double and Myers walked. Colon
DO then hunted to Tedesco and all
he had to do was step on third for a
force-out of Rodin and perhaps get
double-play, but he waited to see
if the ball would roll foul-which il
didn't-and the bases were loaded.
Mays popped to linn at second, but
Korcowski smacked one over the
leftfeld wall and four runs were

across the plate. Easterbrook went
out second to first, but Cunningham
doubled and scored the fifth run on

for the second time in the inning,
struck out to retire the side.
The Braves got their second run
in the bottom half, again without
hit, on two walks, an error and
fly to left.
The Giants picked up their sew

when they added two more on a
walk, a stolen base, a single and a
double, and added their seventh run
off Anderson in the seventh, on a
three-bagger and single.
The Braves suddenly came to life
in the eighth with a four-run rally
and they would have at least tied
the score but for some sensational
fielding. Kovalak, the first man up,
beat out hit to first. Levan popped
up, but Burgett singled to center
with Kovalak stopping at second.
Glunt then hit one to right on which
Rodin made a sensational catch for
the second out. Tedesco followed
with single, scoring Kovalak, and
Lind followed with another single,
scoring Burgett Pottenger then
came through with a double to right
scoring Tedesco and Lind, but the
rally ended when Reardon, batting

Harrisburg.
Tonight at Municipal Stadium,
when Lancaster comes in for a
double-header, the Hagerstown Re

Night as they have done for several
years past Through the coopera-
ton of number of Hagerstown mer-

dition to this, some two hundred dol
lars will be awarded to the team
members of the Hagerstown Braves
for their special feats during the
game.
Jim linn, the second baseman that
was bought from Fort Lauderdale,
and Bill Kovalak, bought from the
Middle Atlantic League, both broke
into the lineup on Saturday night at
Harrisburg, with linn replacing
Heinbaugh at second base and Kova-
lax taking over the leftfeld chores.
Jack Shellenback, rookie right
handler sent in by Hartford, also
broke into the lineup against Tren-
ton on Tuesday night
To make room for these new
players, DePalma has been returned
to Boston, Charlie Heinbaugh has
been sold to the Baltimore Orioles
farm system, and Bradford has been
placed on the inactive list.

Braves, with whom Gene Raney is
supposed to have working agree
