Rex-Alls Met 7 to 1 Defeat at Morocco Sunday.

Manager McGlynn’s Rex-All base ball team met a defeat at Morocco Sunday by the score of 7 to 1. Bristow, their pitcher, was wild and could not locate the plate and gave several passes. He was succeeded by Turner, who proved more effective, but the Rensselaer hoys could not hit the ball and only got one man over the plate. The Naps, an organization of younsters with considerable promise, played John Robinson’s “Bullface Specials” Sunday afternoon, and literally ran the bases at will. The Specials were composed of hasbeens, would-bes and never-wlll-bes and about all of them took a hand at pitching but the Naps had on their batting rigs and sent the sphere to all comers of the lot, while Young Paul Healy held the Specials close at all times. The final score was Naps 46, Bullface Specials 4.
