under an avalanche of hits nevertheless they fought a splendidly spirited up-hill fight and threatened their opponents severely in the sixth inning but as fate would have it the rally fell short of its mark the scoring was started in the second inning when the freshmen shoved one man across the plate by two clear singles again in the fifth a walk a passed ball and a long sacrifice fly netted one more run for the team representing the class of 23 the game was seem ingly sewed up in the fifth — two hit batsmen a slowly played field er's choice and a quartet of strong singles netted the freshmen five more runs in the sixth all these runs which the freshmen had piled up began to look useless for the first three sophomores up ripped out smash ing screamers but this pace was too fast and could not be main tained and the rally fell short of its mark when two successive bat ters fanned making the second and third outs in the seventh four more runs for the freshmen netted them a total oi eleven the latter half of the seventh was short and snappy — two strikeouts and one pop-up ended the game the features of the game were the batting of gainey 22 the all-around playing of melinker 23
