Davidson was out, Herron to Dev- 
lin, in the fourth when Skilton knock- 
ed a two-bagger to Sheehan. He stole 
third, making a beautiful front-dive 
slide for the bag. With Sweeney at 
the bat it loked like another run for 
Marblehead, but O’Leary worked the 
old “hidden ball” trick on Skilton 
nailing him off the bag. Grover pass- 
ed Sweeney and Perkins threw him 
out stealing to second. 
O’Leary got his third hit on his 
third appearance at the bat when he 
started off the fifth inning with a 
single to Davidson. Cody sacrified

dropped the ball which Volk doubled 
to get O’Leary on Devlin’s sacrifice. 
Devlin made ‘the longest hit of the 
game when he drove the ball into the 
crowd in left field. He made two 
bases easily, but took a chance on 
stretching the hit for a three bagger 
and was caught at third. O’Leary

scored on the hit. Herron popped out 
to Donovan. Score—Manchester 2; 
Marblehead 1. 
Davies fanned, Donovan sent up 1 
foul fly to Devlin and Volk was nip- 
ped at first by O’Leary’s throw across 
the dianond. The latter juggled the 
hit and dropped the ball. It looked 
as though the runner would make the 
bag easily when O’Leary whipped the 
ball across the diamond with the speed 
and accuracy of a bullet. Volk was 
out by a couple of yards. The throw 
was one of the features of the game. 
L. Conley flied to Volk, “Bobber” 
walked and Grover singled to E. Bur- 
dette. Perkins came across with an- 
other of his lusty wallops to right 
field and Conley scored. Sheehan hit 
to Davies who forced out Grover at 
third. O’Leary popped to Volk. 
Score—Manchester 3; Marblehead 1. 
Murphy struck out in Marblehead’s

dette. Heron advanced Cody to third

Here would be a good place to end 
the story.

Grover had held the Marbleheaders 
to two hits in separate innings and 
but one error had marred the fielding. 
‘hen the fatal seventh! . 
Skilton, one of the best all-around 
athletes in New England and the fast- 
est big man who waltzes around the 
bases in semi-pro circles, sent a hot 
ball through Devlin. It should have 
been Cody’s ball to field, but Devlin 
attempted too much and Skilton ar- 
rived at first. Then the blow fell. 
Grover made his first wild pitch this 
year and Skilton went to second. 
Sweeney drove a long hit to right 
field, good for two bases, but Sheehan 
muffed the ball and Skilton and 
Sweeney were both across the plate 
before Manchester realized what had 
happened. Davies got to first on an 
infield hit and Donovan went out at 
first, Grover to Devlin. Volk singled 
to Conley and Davies scored the win- 
ning run before the fans had recover- 
ed from the shock of Sweeney’s drive 
and Sheehan’s error. ©O’Leary made
