A August 28, 1926 WINNETKA TALK 31 WINNETKA DOWNS REDS IN SENSATIONAL GAME Baseball Team Beats Lake View With Score of 5 to 4 in Exciting Rally In the most exciting game of the year, the Winnetka ball team came from behind in the ninth inning and downed the Lake View Reds by a score of 5 to 4. Going into the last half of the final frame, two runs be- hind, Bert Blow former cgach for the Winnetka boys gathered them together and made an earnest plea for three runs. Maury Thomas was first to bat attempted to bring Bert's desire to earth, by slapping a single to left. Bill Carey duplicated to center, and Thomas took second. "Fid" Runn- feldt failed to help the cause along by looking at a third strike. Flynn batted for Rudolph and walked filling the bases. "Red" Dahl's best effort at being the hero of the day was a high pop up to the catcher. In an at- tempt to double Flynn at first, Erick- son, Red's catcher made a wild peg, allowing Thomas and Carey to cross the pan, thus tieing the score. Flynn took third on the throw in, "Chubby" Leis, then covered himself with glory by lining a single through second sending the winning marker across the pan. "Bricky" Carlson strated for the lo- cals, but gave way to a pinch hitter in the third and Earl Smith took up the task. Carlson allowed two runs to cross the pan, the first coming in the opening frame on a walk, and two sin- gles. In the second, a single, a steal, and another single added another for the visitors. At this juncture Earl Smith quieted the Reds down while his mates endeavored to tie the score. Winnetka got one in the third on Bur- meister's single, a walk and another single by Schmidt. The game was tied up in the fifth when Thomas singled and Carey tripled. The Reds man- aged to get their first hit off Smith in the eight inning, when Erickson sin- gled, he stole second and rode home on an error. The visitors nicked the pan again in the first half of the ninth when Carey dropped Kubicek's last strike and then heaved wildly to first, allowing the runner to take second. He scored a moment later when Anderson doubled down the left field foul line. This finished all the scoring for the Reds. but as has been previously men- tioned the home talent continued where the visitors left off. Next Sunday the South Side Athle- tic club will try to break the winning streak that the bovs have run to three straight. Be at the Playfield at three o'clock sharp. In the Winnetka Day celebration the Winnetka team took the older gentlemen into camp and handed them a lacing to the tune of 18 to 5. The old timers started out as though to scare the youngsters, but after the third inning Smith had them swinging at will. no one getting as far as third base. The oldtimers admitted after the game that they had had enough for several years to come.
