2 WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, DECEMBER 20, 1919 \ SOX FAR AHEAD IN INDOOR ENCOUNTERS Defeat Cubs in Six-Inning Tilt 12-5 Practically Clinching Pennant; Giants Swamp Reds 13-12 KREGER PLAYS AS UMPIRE Clark Watches Second Game from Balcony but Substitute Shows Skill as Arbiter Yes, dear readers, 'tis 'true. Mr. Anderson, our calm and efficient scorekeeper, was completely surpris- ed when he closed his book Wednes- day evening at about 10:30 o'clock with the score of the last game in favor of the Giants, 13-12. it's like this. For the last three games Mr. Anderson was kept busy chalking up goose eggs against the victors of the other evening. But let's start from the beginning the evening and give you a full account of the doings. Nash! Cazel's' fighting - Pale Hose lined up against the desperate Bears im. the first encounter and won out 12-5. Nash's arm was in excellent condition judging from the way the mowed down his enemies. He allow- + ed only 6 hits during the six innings of pastiming but was blessed with wonderful support. His main support! was Odh at right short and Fastman at the initial sack. Eastman evident- . ly had some contraption in his pocket as every time the ball: came within 6 feet of his lengthy paws he gather- ed it to his besom usually with the result that another Cublet had taken! the long trail. The festivities: : started losers annexing a.brace of runs in the | first spasm. "Spasm" is right. Those Sox sure went into: spasms when two hits and a couple of miscues sent the first four men across the plate. The Cubs were inoffensive during the next session annexing only one markers which | was: promptly an- nulled whea the victors added a couple mosge . to their already + swelling amount. ! "During the next two innings every- thing was quiet, the .Sox adding an- . ther run in the fourth. In the fifth inning the Cubs found + gheir batting. eyes' and sent three runs over. ; The next inning was the - desperate stand of the - Pale Hose - and they made it look desperate by adding a quintet of runs. They owed the five additional markers to Kass- . with the! . ner; the batting back-stop of the losers, who = made . several wild throws. Up to this time Kreger had hurled a fine game and .if Kassner iad kept. his bearings on the game any one run would have resulted. Four hits and Kassner's poor dis- play spelled defeat for his team- mates. The result of the game gave the victors a firm and practically im- wreguable hold on first place. | batting The Giants: opened the second game | by neatly setting the Voltz aggrega- tion up in the other alley. To make the first inning brighter Runnfeldt and Harry Anderson each scored a run. Charley Dehmlow's wonderful pitching lapsed temporarily in the second inning enabling the Crimson warriors to score a brace of count- ers. entered in the Giants' column in their half. During the next four sessions the Giants scored six runs while Charley mowed down the opposing batters in a la Cazel style. In the eighth the fighting Reds scored seven runs coming within one of tying the score but Johnny Deth- loff struck out in the pinch. Some interesting sidelights to the game were the verbal battles between the Giants' first sacker Runnfeldt and the sterling receiver of the losers, Gutekunst. No one knew what they were arguing about but it was an in- teresting diversion in an otherwise] practically uninteresting game. Another sidelight was the failure of Gutekunst to stop a -near-wild pitch in the sixth inning when Schaefer was holding down the batter's position. The ball went inch shell through a sheet of tissue paper the globule striking Kreger, the umpire, on his venerable head, and sending a noise through the gym similar to the Guntekunst-Runnfeldt | uproar. Still another interesting departure was Dehmlow's hurling. Charley only whiffed fifteen men but that was because a full game was not played. He watched the batters carefully playing on their weak spots con- tinually. The fourth and last sidelight is the wanton slaughter of Dethloff's average. Johnny has quite a reputation as a slugger but the only thing he hit Wednesday evening was the air near the batter's box; he fanned three times. True, he annex- ed one hit, but he usually is only contented after taking at least three or four home. The result put the victors in a tie for second place. How come? Read on: W.
