inning gives locals 88 tie two singles a double and five walks in the cioing innings on thursday night provided the stouffvie red sox with the necessary four runs to gain the locals a pit in the points with sunderland it was a thrilling ball game all the way one of those contests that kept the fans on the edge of their seats throughout the entire seven innings the sunderland crew after be ing down three runs lashed back with terrific batting power to tie the score and take the lead hurler boadway who had leen enjoying perfect control up until the fate ful sixth innings had to be relieved by lome schell after he had walked two batters and grooved one over the centre that was lifted out of the park for a home run during his stay on the mound he struck out five batters walked four and was nicked for three hits the sunderland squad continued to race around the bases on two doubles a single and a couple of costly errors and added four more runs to their total however when everything seemed lost the red sox rallied to even the count woodward the first batter to face hurler boadway smashed a four bagger into the daisies but two successive strike outs on welsh and kerr and a force out held the visitors down to a single run in the locals turn at bat mc- mullen went down swinging but chadwick pounded out a neat double to score on a single by hassard ken schell brought has san in with a well placed hit as the red sox took a 21 lead neither team could score a run until the locals came at bat in the fifth and added two more to their total chadwick received a free ticket to first and stole second on a wild throw by catcher farrell ken schell came through with the best hit for the homesters when he lifted a long triple through the centre field fence nicholson walked and smith flied to deep centre allowing schell to score after the catch on the throwin to third base however nicholson was nabbed and although he argued that the ball was dropped the umpire stuck to his ruling and the side was retired although the seven runs scored by sunderland in the sixth innings might have been enough to shatter the spirit of many ball clubs it failed to dampen the efforts of the red sox who surged back in their turn at bat to tie the score cote the first man to face pitcher jim beeton pounded out a two bagger and lehman walked to put two men on base although lome schell flied to the second baseman mcmullen hit safely however on the play lehman was tagged out at third and any chance of a rally seemed dim chadwick worked the pitcher for a walk and has sard drove mcmullen across with a single following another walk to first baseman k schell the sunderland battery decided they should change places so beeton donned the pads and farrell strode out to the mound this change in tactics did not improve the situatioti however as nichol son and smith walked to bring in the tying runs although sunder land came to bat to start the eighth innings the umpire was forced to call the
