The trouble occurred uecause the Steel Plant team hud the wrong battery in the field. It took them just one inning io tind this mu and then it was too late. After the new battery had taken the wheel, tin* team was able to vveather the storm in fairly presentable ah ope Bit' the Simpson Colts knew a good thing when they saw it and took advantage of the fiasco that occurred in the first inning.Four runs scorjd on one hit. Astart like this wouid give almost any team the Millies. I,lt; ightv and Rupert lasted just the first half of the first inning, when their respective places were taken by Harry Hardj% and Mamin, m bo did excellent work. Heighty gave five bases on balls and one bit and made a wild pitch in tills inning, and Rupert is credited with four passed balls. Canton simply couldn't help getting their four scores in. Hardy was naturally excited with the rest of the team and after he entered the box gave two bases on ballsbut he then settled down and would have won the game had it not been for the tremendous load given in the first..Yr\i£('IthtliAnvVtrtt:t-Mamin, the East Greenville catcher, caught thet ne game was a They considered thatthey hud done tlx ir .iu‘\ and decided to adopt a stand p.it policy.The at ore,said h«' berdashers - Immediately began to sit • 111 and Lake, no tie'* They decided Mud it might be a faTlv interesting game alter all, so I lie v scored twice.

Sob :ii tie began to behit more freely, McGuire singled,rest of the game in excellent shape and is credited with two hits that counted. “Dusty” Rhodes was mad m the end of the first inning.
