VARIETY STORE CHANGES Playing “heads up" baseball be hind high class pitching by Ray and Bob Woodard, the Hermiston team defeated the league winning team from Wallula on the local diamond Sunday, eight to four. Ray Wood ard struck out 12 batters In the seven innings he pitched and Bob Woodard struck out six in the two innings he worked on the mound. The game was very exciting from the start. Wallula got two runs In the first inning and held the lead until the fifth when Hermiston tied the score. In the next Inning Wal lula got another score to take the lead. In the seventh Inning Her miston ran in two, and three more in the eighth. In these innings Wallula was held scoreless. Wallula’s second baseman missed getting a home run in the first in ning when the ball hit the top of a fence post in right field and bound ed back into the field. George Ken dler hit a three base hit in the sev enth inning, a line drive that hit the shed In left field and bounced over the fence. This should have been- called a home run, as the ball went out of sight of the umpire. In the eighth inning Wallula had a runner on third and the batter hit a fly ball to Kopacz in center field. As Kopacz caught the ball the run ner on third headed for home and a beautiful throw by Kopacz cut him off at the play. This is a play sel dom seen in this class of baseball.
