Lyceum Juniors and Nutley split weekend baseball as Lyceum won Saturday 4 to 2 at Park Oval then lost Sunday 3 to 0. The detailed play-by-play covers early and late innings with hits, errors, and key runs for both teams.
Nutley bevy faced fierce tension as Mutch drove a long single to center and Wallace fanned with runners aboard. Leach and Machette stole and scored, then Leach tripled and scored as Scorso’s error kept hopes alive. Final innings saw Link, Wallace, and Mutch contribute, with Donahue and Parker retired as the club pressed.
Walt Gorman pitched a superb game allowing only three hits as Boonton A C defeated Lyceum 2 to 1. Mort Machette and Woodruff had the locals' early hits, while Boonton tallied in the fourth and seventh on close plays and a disputed at plate call.
In a double feature at nearby grounds the two clubs rely on Sports section praise and modest wagers. Gorman dominated Sundays game while Parker impressed in Saturdays contest Donahue led hitting on Saturday though silent on Sunday. Hick Voorruff made a fine fourth inning catch and Hudzick robbed Marchette of a sure extra base hit. Curtis at first base excelled with one hand stops and Truck Freeman had a ninth inning chance before popping out.
Henry drew ten chances in a tight game and Woodruff suffered two costly decisions after notable base running. Edwards protected the plate, Hill Gorman returned after a three week layoff to spark third base, O Neill moved to first for Hoelzel, Walt Gorman shone on the mound, Moore moved into infield, Hoyle stood at short, and Miller and Mort Machette filled in as needed as the locals pressed for a win.
A pitchers' battle unfolds as Gorman faces Shortman with a tight score. The Lyceum and Nutley club play through innings of hits, errors, and stolen bases, with key at bats by Leach, Freeman, Donahue, and Breslin shaping a contested game.
A brief note reports Mort arriving with the willow and taking the only van. It questions who did not return. Next Monday Labor Day the big team travels to Morris Plains to face Doc McMurray's crack Greystone.
Gorman will pitch for the locals with Heary at the plate as the Park Field Club resumes the series. Players are asked to meet at the D. L. W. R. Station on Broad Street in Newark at an early hour for the trip.
