The head of the foundling

Tie Game.
(Too late for last week )
Three to three was the result
of ten hard fought innings be-
tween San Saba and Big Valley
base ball teams last Saturday
afternoon at San Saba park. No
scores were made until the fourth
when a nice little combination of
hits netted the Big Valley nine
two scores, With this the scor-
ing stopped until the sixth, when
San Saba rallied with a few bunts
and fast base running and suc-
ceeded in scoring two runs. In
the seventh San Saba sent
another man around the diamond.
In the ninth the Valley boys
strained their efforts and added a
run to their list, which now
equaled the home team. San
Saba ended the inning with three
slow infield balls and flew out at
first, Another inning was played
but neither could score. Owing
to the fatigued condition of the
players it was decided not to
play off the tie.
These teams were well matched
although the San Saba nine had
a little advantage as they were
in some better practice. It was
the first game Big Valley had
played and they had also shifted
some of their players to different
positions, although Weaver did
not play up to his usual standard
on third, Richardson proved good
on short stop and Norton on first,
while special attention must be
given House at second. He was
alert and watchful the entire
game and every ball that went
his way was sure to be “sacked.”
Estep pitched a fine game for
San Saba and his support was
ideal. He was succeeded the
last innings by Douglas Neither
seemed afraid to throw hard, as
they had a good catcher in the
form of Jim Kelley. Neither
team could claim a victory, and
they seemed reasonably satisfied.
San Saba has a strong team
and the visitors, though they
w»>re treated royally and given
equal chanoes, found themselves
up against it to win. Rbp.
