LduIS - 14 42 .250 Sport Graphs Billy Hulen says: Ray Hawk Boasts x Unique Record in Softball Hurling w Mil j Hulea Marvin Stelner. Earl Dale and Ray Singler may be the leading hurler of this Division A Softball campaign which is packing the customers In nightly at the high school stad ium, but Riy Hawk, P I c h o's young under hand f 11 n g e r. boasts by far the most remarkable record of them all. When he beat 8 te 1 ne r and Wooden Boxmen Tuesday night, 6 to 3, Hawk com pleted hla fifth straight full seven-Inning game In which not a single opposing bats man haa drawn a base on balls. lit those five games, a total of 143 en emy hitters have faced Ray, and not one of them has reached first bafe by a walk. If that Isn't control In capital letters, we wonder what is. Some Interesting statistics on Ray's mound work during that game were kept by Jim Murray, who discovered that tho hurler delivered the ball to the batter exactly 76 times. Of those pitches, 61 were either strikes or were hit, and only 15 were called balls. In other words, Ray tolled on the rubber to the extent of making an average of less than 11 pitches per inning. His control was so good that he threw 12 straight strikes In the first two frames before he tossed a ball. In the sixth Inning, lie got three balls and no strikes on a batter, then struck him out.
