ATHLETIC NOTES
A little bobble in the first inning put our team up in
the air last Friday and Albany won an easy victory, 7
to 1. It was the most listless game our team has
played this season. Though Charles George pitched
a good game and turned back 12 of Albany’s hitters,
his teammates were unable to come down out of the
clouds long enough to get together and put up any
thing like an effective defense.
But it was a revamped team that took the field last
Saturday afternoon at Oxford Park when we met
Salem high in a return game. A couple of weeks ago
Salem took our team to the cleaners for the first time
in many, many moons and the boys vowed it wouldn’t
be done again. Salem had won every game they
started and said they were going to repeat, but Salem
finally met her masters when our batters hit their
star pitcher, Fabrey, for eight solid smacks and came
home with the long end of the 3 to 2 score.
Salem folks say it was the best game they have seen
this season. It was marked by few errors and bril
liant fielding by both teams. Some of the stops and
catches made by the Salem team fell little short of
brilliant and saved them from a much larger score.
All season our team has been falling short on the
batting end of the game, but their work in Saturday’s
game was effective. The Salem twirler found it hard
to get the ball past our hitters and succeeded only
twice in sending our men back to the bench. Solo
mon Fleury, our southpaw twirler, had little diffi
culty against Salem’s batters, striking out ten men
and allowing four hits. By walking seven men in all
he got himself in several bad places, but each time
pitched his way out. He held the red and black
hitters at his mercy throughout the game. Jake
Atkins caught his usual good game and started the
fireworks for us in the first inning by slammingout a
pretty two-bagger and was scored on Fleuty’s hit
through first. In the eighth inning the team scored
the third and winning run when they bunched four hits
in a row.
