Rovers ii..OO3-2” Victory. Over.Anchors Yesterday In City Baseball League

Tom MacFarlane's North-end Rovers won their second straight game of the season yesterday af- ternoon when they eked out a close 3-2 win over the west.-end Anchors in a regular City League fixture at Memorial Field Diamond before a. good sized crowd of fans.

Coming from behind a two run Anchor lead, built up by ll long single by playing manager Johnny Stanley. the Rovers tied things up in the last of the third and went on to win the game from sorrel- thatched Merlin MacKenzie in their half of the fifth frame. The winning run was of the unearned variety as three errors paved the way for the marker.

Donnie MacLean and MacKen- ale hooked up in a pitcher's duel with MacLean retiring in the top half of the ninth inning in favor of Benny Carson. Macllean allow- ed three hits but walked four and whiffed eight. Ca on in his one inning stint on the mound walked one batter and struck-out another. Maexenzic was touched for six hits. all singles. while he walked seven and sent. seven others backv to the dugout waving their hats.

The opening bit of scoring came in the top half of the second frame when MacLean walked Elmer Mac- Nelll to start the inning and Flynn. followcd with a base hit. McKen- zie flied out to left and Ryan ad- vanced both runners with an in- field out. Manager Stanley then promptly singled both runners home with his long single to cen- tre.

The Rovers fought back in their half of the third when with two out Cairns singled. MacLean was safe on Pi'neau's error. Murphv then singled home Cairns with: MacLean going to third and Mur-l phy taking second on the throw in from centre. Perry walked to load the bascs and then McKen-E ale heaved one by Maurice Hymn. to allow MacLe:ln to score stand-- ing up with the tying markenl Kennedy walked to keep the sacks! crammed full of runners but Har-i old Hennessey grounded out to; McKenzie to end the inning.

The winning run f'ollowed in the fifth frame. With two out Perry's roller went. through Willis Hen- nesseyis lccs. Kennedy was safe at first on Stanley's miscue. Flynn, allowed a pitched ball to get by; him and both runners advanced a base. On the next pitch Perry! crossed the plate on Fiynns errorl with Kennedy going to third. Hen-1 nessey and Williams walked but Hood filed to centre to end thcl inning and the scoring for the. game. 1

The leading hitters for the game . were manager Stanley of the 105w, ers and centre-fielder Ciee Gllllsf of the Rovers who each had twnl hits. Stanley was the Dlll,Sl.alldlllE,1 fielding star of the game although he committed. one lniscue afield. Willis Hennessey and Charlie Ryan of the Anchors supplied the field-. lng gems of the game when both made difficult. plays to retire bat- ions.

Garth Gay deserves it lot of credit for his first pitching chore- He didn't seem to be exerting him- salt but the Royals were WPl”",3 up his lazy pitches and couldnt seem to get a big enough piece of the ball to make it so places.

The "Old Guard" of the C. at B. Maritime champs looked mighty good in there against the Airforce Sunday. southpaw Embrett had a. lot of stuff including a nice sinker. but he was up against as tough 3 group of hitters as you will find anywhere among the native sons

of Maritime baseball. The hitting and fielding of the five from the Maritime perennial champs .was

enough to convince onlookers that they are indeed worthy of the. hon- ors they have gained. and that they didn't need the addition of any imports to make them a tough proposition for any intermediate nine in the Mlirltlmes to handle. . . .

'The Chief” (J. K. Curran to the uninitiated) in co-operation with the Summerside Athletic As- sociation is iringlng a coach from the vicinity of Boston to start Summerside youngsters off on the right. foot in baseball. The coach is expected to arrive in summer- side Wednesday and will. we hope, he a great hclp to the up-and- coming ball tossers of our town. "The Chief" has also donated his baseball canteen to the S. A. A. A.. and thus continues to be top bene- factor in Summerslde sporting circles. Thanks are also due D. 0. Stewart for his donation of a fox lower which is being renovated and made suitable to serve as ii press box.

The idea of bringing in a coach to help the young players appeals to us much more than the bringing it: of players to bolster our teams. We have the raw material for . championship teams right here in ,

see the local boys bring home the bacon. O C O

Somebody slipped up in the matter of providing umpires for the ball game between R. O. A. P. and llolman's on Sunday. When the boys were all set to play, it was discovered that there were none of that near-sighted species to be found anywhere in the vic- inity. Mark Delaney. a player for the C. and B Juniors. was pressed into service and gave a very good account of himself considering it was his first experience in such a spot. The matter of providing umpires should be looked after long before the beginning of play.

Talking of umpires. there is I good story about them in con- nection with Casey stengei's re- cent beeif about the "Carnival" actions of fans in Cleveland and Chicago. Casey complained that fans threw firecrackers st Mickey Mantle Just as he was about to catch I ball. "He might have been blinded." Casey said. "Well." one ieporter qulpped.
