Yanks Get Title

took the Little League champion
ship title rs after losing to the
Phils 14-7 Tuesday evening. We'd
neSday's game marked the end of
the closely contested, three game
series. of which the Yanks won the
two necessary for victory between
the two half season pennant win
ners.
According to the statistics the
Phils out-played the Yanks with IL
hits to the Yanks' four, and eight
men striking out to the Yank's
nine, but the Yanks' fine defensive
play made the difference. Examp-
les of Yank heads-up ball were a
relay by Garry Miller, second
baseman, to put Phil runner out
at first and a crowd-thrilling one
handed catch in left field by Char
lie Jones.
Batteries were Garrard and Nc
skie for the Phils, and Tumbli-
=, I'd Arrick for the Yanks. The
big lining was the fifth. With the
Yanks at bat, Bob Littler hit
double to right center, driving in
two runs.
Jack Scurry followed. batting in
two more runners to make the
score 7-3. The Phils scored two
runs in the sixth and had the two
tieing runs on base, but "Dogweed"
put out the last batter with three
straight strikes.
Hitters were, for the Yanks, Lit
tier with two and Scurry with
double, and for the Phils, Garrard
with three for four and McClaskie
with two for four.
The Yanks and Phils are sched-
uled to play an exhibition game
next Wednesday evening at 600,
preceding a softball game. be-
tween the Prison Farm and the
Merchants Softball League All
Stars. Proceeds from these games
will benefit the softball league.
