Baseball Play Leads to Run Scoring Confusion
In a tense inning sequence Briggs Oeschgar failed to field Colbert's bunt as Kegley walked to load the bases. Martin scored on Delbarba's long fly to center, Goleman mishandling it as Chariton advanced. Chariton then reached third on a forced play, while Tait and Charl ton lingered. A misplay by H Rolfe allowed Callan to reach. Keeley and Chariton slid home on the error as Goleman chased the ball near the fence. Emmanuel was out on a fielder's choice in the sixth, and Clarks added a run with Martin's single and Delbarba's hit to right. In the seventh, the visitors were retired in order with Boyer making two deep-center fly outs.
