Nelson Baseball Club Defeated By Scrubs In Casual Match
Yesterday afternoon the Nelson Baseball Club faced a scrub team managed by James McDonald on the recreation grounds. The Nelson nine started strong but allowed six runs in the fourth inning, turning a close game into a one sided affair with final scores shown by innings. The Nelson lineup included Blackwood Rockenfield Watan Houston and others while the Scrubs featured Eckert Neelands Emerson Phair and Poe among the lineup. The Nelson pitchers rotated but could not stop the onslaught and the $200 purse remained uncaptured, prompting talk that a combined team from both squads could beat external contenders for Kootenay bragging rights.
