I a ;• R0TAL GIANTS PROVE EASY PICKING r::r:m riKMRY SOX -mffB-UEl^aAWTT kfts COLMED AT HIS COMMAND THRUOUT--BENDIMG MAKES PRETTY CATCHES Before the largest crowd that has attended a ball game in McHenry this season the local crew wrecked the Royal Giants' baseball machine of Chi­ cago here Sunday afternoon, the final score standing 11 to 3, with McHenry holding the big end. The home .squad won for the simple reason that they played the bctttcr game, they outpointing their rivals in every stage of the game. 'Red" Delehanty did the artillery work for Che home lads and had the colored gents eating out of his hand thruout the entire afternoon matinee. He had everything that goes to win ball games, speed, control and a change oI speed that had the Chicagoans stand­ ing on their heads. It was truly a pleasure to watch the smoke artist work. During practice the colored boys looked the stronger of the two clubs. This was probably due to the fact that they were pulling off all sorts of grand stand stuff, which rarely counts for anything when it comes to the real game. Many of those who came to the game with an extra cart wheel or two in their pockets banked their hopes on the colored boys and as a re­ sult not a few hard earned American dollars changed hands at the close of the contest# As it is always necessary to play the game all over again, here goes: Firet inning: Lewis fanned. Green went out via Comiskey and Warner. Naece hit safely to right. Goliah sin­ gled to left, Naece taking second on the hit. Both runners advanced a base on a passed ball by Grant. Hill struck out. Two hits, no runs. Riley went out via Davis and Naece. Comiskey's grounder was handled by Lewis and Naece. Brailsford was safe at first when Goliah loafed on his grounder between first and second. Opfergelt hit allot one to Green at third. Green's peg pulled Naece way off the intitial sack with the result that both hands were safe. Bending fanned. No hits, no runs. Second inning: Hayes went out via Koob and Warner. Dixon was passed and came home on Davis' single to center. Scottie whiffed. Lewis met his fate thru Riley and Warner. One hit, one run.

Green made a wild peg to first and the batter was safe, the error allowing Warner to reach third, while Koob was resting on the center cushion. Delehanty came across with a bingle to left cen­ ter, Warner scoring while Koob was nipped at the plate. Grant took sec­ ond on thetiit. A moment later Hayes tried to get Delehanty off the initial sack, his peg missing. its mark by a foot or two, ,the ball rolling out into, right field, the error allowing Grant and Delehanty to score.

Bending bounced one down to Green at third. Green again made a bad throw to first, the hit sboring Brailsford.
