Hustlers And Larkin Post Play On Friday
Frederick Hustlers and William P. Larkin Post Legionnaires resume their semi pro feud Friday night at McCurdy Field. Hustlers manager Climax Blethen expects 20 year old Lloyd Heatherly to start on the mound after he led the Hustlers to wins this season. Heatherly also contributed at the plate and in recent work held the Homestead Grays to three runs in eight innings. The game follows two-game deficit in the 1950s series and comes after a suspension of weekday night games affecting practice for Friday’s showdown.

The Birmingham, Alabama product improved under Eddie Sawyer, posting 14 wins in 1949 with a 2.35 ERA in the International League and earning a regular spot as a Whiz Kid starter while balancing studies at Louisiana State University and his sharp hitting and running instincts.
