LOST THE FIRST 
MANCHESTER Droppep InrrraAL, GAME 
OF MARBLEHEAD SERIES. 
SAYS Bill Carrigan of the Red Sox, 
“The breaks are nine-tenths of a 
game of baseball.’ Bill might have 
said “11-tenths” without stretching it 
any about that Manchester-Marble- 
head game last Saturday afternoon in’ 
Marblehead. It certainly was due to~ 
the bad breaks that Manchester got 
the short end of the 4 to 3 score after 
playing all around the ’Head nine for 
six innings. Those same “breaks” 
also nearly broke the hearts of sey- 
eral hundred Manchester folk, who 
journied around to the other side of 
Salem harbor to see the game. It is 
estimated that the crowd which saw 
Marblehead win the first game of the 
big series numbered somewhere be- 
tween 5000 and 7000. 
Whatever the outcome of the series, 
that first game will go down in the 
annals of semi-professional ball as the 
speediest, and largest attended game 
on the North Shore to the present 
time. The Marblehead diamond is 
laid out in a big field with the plate 
backed by a grandstand and the base 
lines flanked by bleachers. Away in 
the outfield a sloping embankment 
rises on three sides, furnishing excel- 
lent seating accommodations for a- 
tremendous crowd. Long before 
either of the nines appeared on the 
diamond crowds of fans from Man- 
chester, Marblehead, Lynn, Swamp- | 
scott, Salem, Peabody, Beverly and 
other nearby places swarmed down 
over the hill overlooking the diamond. 
When Umpire “Pi” Long raised his 
arm as a signal for quiet during the 
preliminary announcements the field 
was completly hedged in with row on 
row of sport-crazed humanity. 
Marblehead took the field with its 
lone hope, Southpaw Davies, facing 
“Bill” Sheehan, Manchester’s first 
batter. After Sheehan had fouled 
a couple of Davies’ “hooks” he drew 
a pass and repaired to first. O’Leary, 
who was the star performer of the 
afternoon, waited out Davies’ delivery 
until the portsider dished up a fast 
straight ball, then lined it out for two 
bases. Sheehan stopped at third and 
died there while Cody, Devlin and 
Herron swung wild at Davies’ offer- 
ings. 
E. Burdette, Marblehead’s right- 
fielder, was the first man to face 
Grover. and he fanned on three pitch- 
ed balls. Davidson, next man up, 
repeated and Skilton popped up to 
O’Leary. 
“Larry” Conley started off the 
second inning by getting a base on 
balls. His brother, ‘““Bobber,” sacri-
