HAIDA SEA LADS
DEFEATED IN FINE
GAME, SCORE 6-5
Seward Aggressors Hit with
Squall in Fifth Inning but
Weathered the Sea in Fine
Shape.
PAINTER BREAKS NOSE
i _
| Rood and Bogart Take the
Mount for Seward—Rob
inson Brothers Twirl for
Sailors.
j The Navy team of baseball players
' from the Cutter Haida cruised out to
the local hall sea with the Seward
team last night, and with a goodly
| number of seagulls on the sidelines,
| sank with all aboard by the close
' score of G-5. The Sailors were re
I sponsible for a squall, which started
jin the fifth inning, but with Skipper
1 Rood and Pilot Bogart on the bridge,
I the locals weathered the choppy sea.
; Not until the home port was reached
; however, were all hands assured that
they would land safely.
The ball game, as signified by the
j score, was an excellent game, and
j marked by a number of fast plays
' and stick work. The captains of each
j team, Mr. Baker for the Navy and
Rood for the Locals, were the shin
ning star of their respective teams.
Like the famous Siamese twins, these
two chaps did their stuff on the
mound, behind the plate and at the
bat. Bogart, who relieved Rood in
the last of the sixth, got better and
the further he went and was working
smoothly when the game came to an
end. Baker was relieved in the first
of the fifth by C. C. Robinson, who
twirled the Cordova game, but the
young seaman evidently had not fully
recovered, for in the seventh his
brother, R. M. Robinson stepped into
his shoes, holding the Seward ag
gregation scoreless for the remainder
of the game. E. Stump caught a nif
ty game until Rood donned the mask,
later taking Painter’s position at
third.
Both infields worked exceptionally
fine considering the soft diamond and
the light rain which fell previous to
the game. A few errors were chalk
ed up against both sides. The Navy
came near to scoring first in the sec
ond when two men got on with no
outs. Rood then proceeded to strike
two men out, the third flying out, re
tiring the side.
j The first of the third witnessed the
first runs made by the Seward lads.
Snyder singled thru second and Rood
doubled to left, scoring Snyder. Paint
er got on safe and E. Stump sacri
ficed out to second, bringing home
Rood. In the third Rood faced a de
lima again. Baker got on safely then
stole second and third. Rood struck
out the next two men up with the
third popping out. Hansen of the
Navy, was the first man to walk,
drawing a free pass in the fourth.
Some More Scoring.
With two men on in the fifth, Bak
er went behind the bat and C. C. Rob
inson into the box. Rood came into
the limelight again with a double to
left scoring both men. The Navy made
their first score in the fifth. Peterson
singled, stole second and third, com
ing home on R. M. Robinson’s drive
thru short. W. Stump made a beauti
ful stop of a ground Texas leaguer,
slammed out by Hansen. In the sixth
Seward came back and annexed an
other run. Lundberg was hit by the
pitcher, stole second and third, com
ing home on Hannon’s infield drive.
It was the following inning when
rockets were almost sent up by the
Seward nine. Baker slammed out the
only three bagger of the game with
two men on. Hill coming up next,
doubled, scoring Baker, making the
third run for this inning. Bogart
then went in for Rood, who relieved
E. Stump.
Painter Breaks Nose.
R. M. Robinson in the box in the
seventh relieving his brother. The
first ball pitched was fouled by
Painter, glancing from the bat and
with terrific force, hit Painter in the
nose. Painter staggered back from ,

gushed from the apparently broken
nose in a torrent. Mayor Ray, one
of the spectators, rushed Painter to
