Ogden Both Take a Hand vv in Pitching -- Battle Every Inch of the Way Playing a vastly different and better brand of ball hoth on the field and at bat, than they displayed in Oshawa last Saturday, and fighting to the last ditch to carry off a vie- tory, St. Andrew's Juniors were last night eliminated from the Junior O. B.A.A. running when Toronto Mec- Cormick's defeated them in the sec- ond of the home and home game series by a 12 to 6 score in a smart and exciting game played at Willow- vale Park, Toronto, Unlike the game seen in Oshawa by over 6500 fans, the affair last 'night saw St. Andrew's hitting with almost an equal velocity to that which the Macs 'were showing with the result that four pitchers, two on each side, had to be used to keep the hard slugging activities down to reasonable bounds. Shannon and Howie were the original artists and both lasted until the sixth inning, when a home run to Barton resulted in Shannon being hauled out while the dangerous possibilities of leav- ing Howie in much longer hrought about Moffatt's debut at the hill, despite the fact that he was suffer- ing from a very sore wrist which bothered his pitching considerably, Again unlike the contest in Qsh- awa, St. Andrew's fielded tke a dif- three bagger and a sacrifice for two runs in their half of the second which killed St. Andrew's one run lead and put them one run ahead instead, The first man up, Carroll, drew the charity and a triple by Buckingham which dropped over Baird's head netted the score for him. Carroll counted whén Howie dropped a sacrifice hit down to Gum- mow, Both teams again counted in the third, Little breaking the ice for the Saints when he opened the in- ping with a smart single and was Sent down to second on a play at first to catch Rowden, The tally came when Young poked a hit into center field. Five runs on four hits and a walk was the big inning of the game with McCormicks on the pleasant end of the repartee. Jennings, the second man up, put his foot inte the trouble when he singled over the infield, Two more hits in succession from 'Barton and Flake resulted in the first run while a fielder's choice, a walk and another single resulted in the remaining four runs which went to Flake, Barton, Carroll, and Buckingham, Neither team scored in the fourth 'the fifth with two from St. Andrew's and three from Glad Calhoun's men, A walk to Rowden after two were retired came at an opportune time, Young's home run coming directly after to make it a pair of very ac- ceptable counters, ferent team altogether, going even as far as the sensational to make up for their bad showing here when it seemed that they could do noth- ing right, Home runs from Young and Bar- ton were the hitting highlights of the game, both singles being ter- rifie drives that went far over the center fielders' heads what would have heen a hit to: the track at Alexandra Park, A triple by Buck- inlam was the only other long boost: although numerous hits went to the outfield. After St. Andrew's went out in succession in their half of the first, McCormicks made their bow ' with a lone tally from McCoy. He got on through a hit into right and ad- vanced" on a sacrifice from Baker. An error to Baird in left field sent McCoy to third and Jennings to second while a fielder's choice and a: play on Jennings which wasn't completed until after McCoy had crossed the plate, resulted in the tally. Two runs for the Saints in their half of the second sent them into the lead for the only time they have had that honor in the whole series. A walk to Young started the trouble with pone out. The next batter flied out but an error on Carroll's part sent, ---- to third and Gummow DRABEING- DOWN "PAINS RELIEVED Woman Suffered Nearly a Year, | Lye E. Pinkham's Vegetable McCormick's also got their trio after two men had heen sent back to the bench in succession, A single from Buckingham started the pro- cession and he was followed hy, an- other from Howie, a walk from Mec- Coy and a single from Baker which sent in the last two. Howie sige Buckingham. One run in sixth through a home run to Barton was the last of the scoring for McCormick's, The homer was a bheanty but hardly any better than Young's going only about ten feet farther along the grass. The Saints went out in one-tho- three order in this frame but rallied for their last run in the seventh when Shannon walked with none out. A fielder"s choice, whieh re- tired Shannon but gave Carver a life was the real source of the trouble, Carver being sent to second on another fielder's choice with Lit- tle at the husiness end, and a hit from Rowden, bringing in the tally. Young followed this with another single but Rowden was caught off | third to end the inning. In the eighth, the Saints went out in succession while although the Macs, had two men on bases, they also were kept clear of the home plate. \ A single by Carver in the Saints' last bat in the ninth when two. had been retired ahead of him, seemed to indicate a last minute rally but a strike out followed to end the game and send St. Andrew's out of the O.B.A.A. running for the season of 1927. Nothing but praise can go to the Saints for the game they put yester- | day, their team play was very g00d | and in fact everything was different | to what was displayed here on Sat- urday. A goodly number of Oshawa fans saw the game and besides thor- oughly enjoying it, they were firmly of the conviction that St. Andrew's | had redeemed themselves in glor-| ious style for their drubbing at Alexandra Park.

Lee Meadows had the better of Hal Carlson on the mound. The Chicago hurler was hit freely in the first four Innings and was lifted for a pinch hitter in the eighth. Meadows was ably supported by aparkling throws by the Waner Brothers, Lloyd Waner's throw to Traynor stopped Wilson in the sec- ond inning when he attempted to go to third on Beck's single. In the next inning, Paul Waner cut off Beck at the plate with a throw to Gooch. Pittshurg drew first blood in the second inning when Grantham beat out a hit, Harris doubled and Gooch singled, scoring both of them. Har. ris"s homer came in the fourth with none on base, After Grantham had singled in the eighth, Harris drove him in with a sacrifice with what proved to he the winning run.
