First Runs ScoreSpearman, first batter against her, plastered the first pitch for a double to center. Fat. Jenkins duplicated to right. The former scored on an infield hopper and Cannady drove in Fat ruth a single. And so the Beard's spotted the coloit-d boys a pair going into the second when the latter club added tno more.In that heat Scales led off ruth a sharp single but was foiced by D. fSteve) Thomas. Cannady immediately took one of Walsh’s outside heaves on the center of his bat and the ball cleared the canvas m left center lor a homerThe fifth and final Yank romp landed iq the fifth. Scales again led with a safety. Thomas also singled, his mate halting at third m a hit and run play that caught Shortstop Moulder off position, canna-dy's third consecutive bingle scored Scales. The veteran Yancey forced Cannady and Blake ended It by hitting to third for a double play.The Beards, meanwhile, v.ere scoreless. Holland, ace David twirl-cr, had “them well chained, only eighteen men facing him in these five heats. But the Benton's bats opened up in the sixth. Williams started with a single- down the first base line. Moulder advanced him with another clean drive, Conley was safe when Yancey muffed Holland's assist at the start of an attempted double play. Tire bags were filled when Traynor grounded to the mound, Williams scoring Morrissey then lifted a towering infield fly to Scales. The ball vent high above the last gleams of the arcs and Scales dropped it to fill the berths once more. Jacobs then popped to the catcher and Lucas was a close out at first.Error Pave§ WayThey talked again in the eighth when Moulder tripled under the left field canvas, Conley fanned and Traynor dribbled to the hump. Moulder steamed for home and dived high at the plate as Catcher Clark got a fast, timely assist from Holland. But he dropped the ball when the runner bowled him over and the score was ftve and two.The donkey ball act, staged after the main shew, provided a welcome medium for the ordinarily clowning Black Yanks who immediately christened their mounts everything from Cavalcade to New Deal, But the burrows balked just the same and when Fat Jenkins attempted to field the bard-swatte red soft ball two throws were wild— Jenkins over the beast's head being one of 'em. It was a hilarious climax to a good entertainment.From here the Beards were to mote upon Scranton today and thenthrust far into the West (or wind-up.The box scoie-Clack Yankees AC K II PO Spenrman, rf,Jenkins.
