KENNECOTT
WINS FOURTH
The fourth baseball game of
the season played Saturday
night at Kennecott was won by
Kennecott by a score of 6 5.
It was one of the best ex
hibitions of ball seen here for
, some time, both teams playing
air-tight ball and fighting all the
way. The twins did battery
duty for Kennecott, while McC
! arthy used Pennington on the
mound and Jacobson on the
receiving end.
!
McCarthy took the lead
, from the start by heavy slugg
ing and snappy base running
and assisted by a home run by
j Machin. Kennecott however kept
plugging away and taking ad
vantage of a little carelessness
on the part of McCarthy, slipp
ed across a couple of counters
in the last frame to win.
The game was handled very
satisfactorilly by Geo. McFall.
