Weiser and Huntington Play On Weiser Diamond
The Huntington team defeated Weiser 23 to 10 in Sundays return game after Weiser rushed out to an 8 0 lead. Weiser pitcher Raynor Coakley moved to right field as John Nevins debuted on the mound, delivering deceptive curves and steady command. The Weiser infield and outfield supported him, though wild throwing remains a weakness for the visitor. Hamilton of Huntington was hammered at times, with two and three baggers frequent. Tom Lloyd umpired and earned satisfaction from both sides.
