It should be aid that on two occasions the good Lord was peek ing over Holder's shoulder. In the second and fourth innings Mgr Hugh Luby came up with the sacks jammed and two out. Sparking nlays by Shortstop Steve Mesner, cutting off what could have; been easy hits for Luby, choked off the threats.
