La Grande won over Union yerter-
day afternoon on the local play-'
grounds, 10-7, in a game that carried
with it all the intense interest and
, all the 57 varieties of the national
outdoor pastime. Slate and the vet
eran McMillan were pitted ; against
each other for eight innings, McMil
lan giving way to Miers in next to
the last canto. Both men pitched good
baseball, but Slate was tight though
out and at no time did he bring any
thing on himself deserving defeat,
while McMillan on the other hand did
contribute to his own downfall. Lew
in, a college youth just breaking into
the semi-pro game, got off with an
awful start and put McMillan in the
hole. Lewin tightened and played
better- ball as the game went on.
Slate's performance was indeed great.
He fielded seven bingles perfectly,
got a out and twice started rallies that
put plenty of white space between the
two teams.
Outside of Slate's performance at
fielding and pitching his pitching
baffled, for he has a good mixture, a
change of pace and good control the
next item of special mention must be
Mulvehill. The. old-time back-stop
made five trips up to the plate and
four times ho hit husky, grass burn
ing bingles, one for extra bases.
There was : nothing puny about his
swats either.
O'Brien drove out o single in the
first inning that lost ; itself in field
grass and he pranced home, but he
pranced too far from second and was !
called out. Not until the third, did
Union score. In that inning O'Brien I
hud walked and Slate got binglcd by
Mulvehill, Nodine and Caldwell, and
Miers and Skiff banged into fielders'
choice plays Coupled with an infield j
boot the visitors scored three. They
repented in tho next chapter. Davis
wont out, Oliver to Mclnnis, but
O'Brien, Mulvehill, Nndine singled,
and Oliver threw high on Micr's drive. I
Mulvehill's hit had scored O'Brien '
and Nodine brought Mulvehill and
Miers over the pan. Lu Grande and
Slate tightened- and slopped the run
business by. striking out Caldwell and
getting Lewin it t first. Davis singled
in the next lining, was sacrificed by
O'Brion, scored on Mulvehill's fourth
and last hit. Although beaten, the
Union Horse Show smile spread it
f.clf on the visiting delegation.
La Grande opened with two in tho
first when Lewin's boots and Oliver's
hard hit did the business. Tn tho
fourth McMillan was touched by
Humphrey, (Jnlbreith, Pidcock, Mcln
nis. In addition there was an infield
boot and a sacrifice, nil counting for
four. Not until the (ith did the Club
bers score again, taking advantage
(t McMillan's wildness for two walks
and Pidcock's drive. Speed Humph
rey, Galbreilh and Oliver each hit
into fielder's choice, poor brain work
on O'Brien's part letting in two of
