Snell’s hit, A. Snell’s single and an out at first.The severvrun splurge in the third stanza decided th© issue Gene Leahey started it with a hit. After Zenni popped out, Pino Perrine hit safely and Milburn poled a | home run. Dick Birk followed with a single, P. Snell was safe on an infield error. Peters hit a single and j A. Snell banged out another homer. Anderson grounded out and Kersey was safe on an error but Leahey, upfor the second time, ended the rally with a grounder to the pitcher’s box.Bob Luttrell, Hatchery pitcher, settled down and twirled shutout ball in the succeeding five innings, although hit freely, but it was like locking the barn door after the hors© had been stolen-The Hatchery manufactured a three-run rally in the fourth on a walk to Lane. Jay Burnett’s homer, j Ernst’s single, another walk to Bol-ser and a long fly by Luttrell. After i this shaky round, Delbert Kersey,! on the mound for the Abattoirs,likewise pitched most effectively.He did not allow another hit untilafter two were out in the ninth when Ernst singled and Bolser | doubled. The two runners were stranded when Luttrell hit a pop fly to third.I Fielding well, the champs also collected fifteen hits. Milburn was the big shot at the plate with a single, triple and homer. A Snell hit a homer and two singles and Walter Peters contributed three hits also, two of them doubles, j Kersey limited the Hatchery to seven hits and fanned an equal i number of batters. Burnett hit a singU* and home run for the Hatch ery and Ernst made two singles.The defeat dropped the Hatchery into last place in the league, giving the Hooven and Allison Co. a chance to com© up for air after a long period of cellar occupancy.With a lead of two and one-half games and only three more to play, the Abattoirs have virtually clinched a successful title defense With a girl definitely certain to appear in their lineup, the Ex Highs will meet the Cedarvilie Merchants in an exhibition ganie Tuesday night at Cox Field Lang Chevro-lets will play the H. and A.’s re-juvenated team Wednesday night.
