On Friday the game went to ten innings, before the winning Webfoot managed to push two runs across and garner tin victory. Washington State scored one run in the eighth frame of the Saturday game to knot the count ut 2-2, und it looked uh if another extra-inning contest was on the (till for the travel-weary Webfoots. In the top of the ninth, however. Duck first-sacker Hon Phillips banged out a double with one down and went to ttiird base on an infield grounder. Joe Suglira, Duck ND Baseball Standings clean-up man stepped to the plate and knocked out a single to bat in what proved to be the winning run. The Ducks started the game in their usual fashion by scoring in the first stanza. Nick Schmer reached first on a bunt and scored a few moments later when Phillips smashed a double into right field, his first of two In the game. At the end of the third inning, the score was tied ut 1-1, the Cougars having sent Ed Boucher across the plate on center-fielder Bud Burner's double.
