Tho result was a surprlso to tho
Nysoa boys who woro confident thnt
tho compnratlvo showings of tho two
tennis ngalnst Vnlo nnd Huntington
indicated that Ontario would bo
onBlly beaten.
Ontario won because Woodruff had
nn off dny, and tho further fact that
Ontnrlo's hits woro proporly mixed
with Nyssn's errors at cltlcal periods,
whllo except for ono Inning, tho
third, Nyssa was uuablo to do any
thing with Bill Lycll's npocd bnll,
especially when n hit would havo
counted.
Nyssa scored In only two Innings,
tho third nnd thu sovonth. In tho
I third thoy got four hits oft Lyells
nnd theso with an orror by Blackaby
nottcd thorn four scores. Again In
tho sovonth thoy got tlireo hits nnd
ono scoro. Toutsch wns thu hitting
star for Nyssn, getting throo hits,
ono of them n double nnd n base
on balls. Quernsoy and Boy Smith
woro Ontnrlo's heavy cloutors. Guer
nsey furnished thu fenturo drlvo, n
horaorun In tho ninth. Ho also got
a single Boy Smith startod Nyssa
on tho downward rond with his throo
ply smnsh on tho first ball Wood
ruff pitched. Ho wns tollowod by
Hunted who singled sending tho first
run across. Hinted nlso gnthorod
two lilts during tho nftornooii.
Tho other outstanding fenturo ot
tho gamo wnn Guernsey's bonutlful
throw from deep center by which ho
caught SlmoiiB nt tho pinto by four
foot. Bill Blackaby at socond hnd
n busy nftomoon gottlng flvo put
outs nnd two nssltts with only ono
bobblo. lu fact Ontnrlo pluyod a
high grado dofonslvo gnmo tho only
errors being dno ot Caslday's and
ono by Stephens.
Chot lackey succumbed to tho
luro ot tho gamo and hold down the
Initial sack In nlr tight fashion,
whllo tho addition of Blackaby to
tho Infield strengthened a weak
spot.
Vnlo Lorn to Huntington
At Huntington tho railroad boys
hnd llttlo difficulty lu nnnoxng tho
gamu with Vnlo by n one sldod scoro.
Tho rnllroad men had their batting
clothes on and poundod out enough
runs to win two games, and thus put
thoniBolves Into a tto with Nyssa for
longuo championship.
Noxt Sunday Huntington comes to
Ontario whllo Vale plnys tit Nyssa.
