LOCALS TAKE OPENING GAME
IN CLASH WITH CORDOVANS
With ideal baseball weather pre
vailing. grandstand and bleachers
filled to overflowing. Ben Sherman’s
Cordova champions confident and
Nenana's title-holdeis on their toes,
determined to “do their darnedest",
the first game of the Cordova-Xe
nana baseball series opened last
evening at Franklin K. Lane park
with the visitors very much the
favorites—and closed in a blaze of
glory for the Xenana boys, with
half an inning to spare. The score
was 9 to 7 in favor of the home
i town team.
The visitors had all the advantage
1 from the start—the advantage of
| heavy and well directed hitting, the
advantage of a season’s team work
i and the advantage of a string of
| victories stretching all the way
' from the clam fields to Xenana.
' But they just simply couldn’t con
: nect with the -winning runs, al
j though they had a good lead at
i one stage of the game. George Hup
i prich. in the box for Xenana. pitch
ed peerless ball and was ably sup
ported by Walker Biakey, behind
the bat, and the regular Xenana
team covering the other positions,
and this in spite of the fact that
the Xenana boys had not had any
practice to speak of for a month.
There were a number of out
standing features of the game, in
addition to the splendid work of
Hupprich. on the mound. The Xe
; nana boys made a number of very
! costly errors, and so did the visitors
| —and there was some vejy heavy
hitting, the Clam Diggers connect
ing for one home run and several
1 other long drives, with excellent
! direction.
Cordova was first at bat but
• went down in one. two. three order.
Brown and Biakey, first up for
| Xenana in the second half of the
first, each made the grade and were
t/i ivorp.
Cordova evened up the score in
the second inning, and the honor?
remained even until the sixth in
ning, when Cordova edged ahead
' with one run.
Two more runs were made by
Cordova in the first haif of the
seventh and it began to look bad
for the locals. But the Xenana boys
started a hitting epidemic in their
half of the inning and when the
smoke cleared, it was discovered
that they had piled up four runs,
putting them one ahead of the vis
j itors.
Cordova evened the score in the
eighth, and Xenana followed with
I three runs, giving the home boys a
lead that insured victory. The Cor
/S
I dovans scored one in the first i
half of the ninth, which gave the
game to Xenana, with a score of
9 to 7.
Pitcher Martini was hit in the
back by a pitched ball in the third
inning and his place was taken by
Sauri. who remained on the mound
until the eighth, when he gave way
to Morgan in an effort to curb the
Xenana hitting epidemic.
The visitors also tried out their
pinch hitter, Joe" Jackson, when hits
were in demand, but he failed to
pinch.
The Cordova boys play a clean
game and they have a strong team,
n^tstanding the fact that the show
ing made by them in the opening
game was not quite up to expecta
tions. Xew grounds, wetter than
1 need be. and a blinding sun may
have had something to do with it,
but in any event, it is apparent the
Xenana boys have a foe worthy of
their best efforts.
The game was very satisfactorily
umpired by William Sherman, for
Cordova, and C. W. Tibbitts for
Xenana.
Manager Sherman has thirteen
players and a mascot with him. the
list including: Glossian, Frederick
sor., Lopez, Oliver. Martini. Anstis, '
Tracey, Steel, Morgan, Sauri. Mor- ;
ris, Jackson. Xosgard and mascot
Buster Sherman.
The game tonight will be called
' at six. and the game tomorrow at
two o’clock.
I All of the visiting players will
be admitted free at the Coliseum
: during their stay here. «,
