HAMIViOND WINS ELEVEN INNING GAME

Valpo Imports Three Eye Slab Artist But Kilbriclt Pitches Swell Game

The Hammond K. of C 's traveled t -Valparaiso yesterday '!craoon and beat the fast Valpo Cub 3 to 2 In 11 innings In or.e of the test r!yed games uf twill that has ever Vw-n pulled off at the fV-rtrr county fair Krounds. Va'paralao imported Davidson, a ""-I ' League pitcher for this particular -c-I'jjlcn but Hiibrich, who worked for Hammond proved every bit his equal, in fact Hilbrlch had a little th eig. letting Valpo down with 7 hit?, while his mates clubbed Davison for a tot a; of 9. Pivvtson started to weaken towards the end of the game as Han-.mor. got J of their 9 blows In th eleventh inning. Hilbrlch on the other hand, kept getting stronger as the (rams g--f older snd after tTra fifth inning Valpo didn't havo a look Only 2.0 men faced Hilbrlch In the. last ?:x round snd six of these- died by the strikeout route. Incldentslly Hi'.bri--h retired the side on strikes in the ninth r:r.s setting: down three of Valpo'? best hit ters la a row. Sug. Handy was Hammond's leadine

man 'with the stick, getting 3 h'ts. Including a do-u&ie and two bfr.g'.cs out f 5 times tip. Chandler with one scratch hit and one reguir fcase knock the only other Hammond man to s-et more than one blow. The. other 'our hingles were split up betwee-i Murphy, Harle, O'Rourke and McLaugh l!n. the last two being' scratihea. Hammond's inCeld as a whole work--3 like a clock getting 25 char.cn with but one error. Hilbrlch also had assists without a single Mistake and ".'apt. Harle caught hts fiual good ar il-le cf ball, besides ke.-ping the team pepped up throughout the game. Manager Hembach certainly deserves a. lot of credit for assembling a bunch of players that pat up such a tplendid exhibition as his team displayed In yesterday's contest. Va'-po players and fans alike were loud in i

rheir praise of the Hammond club, -laiming they are without a doubt the best team that has faced the Valpo outfit his season . NVt only did the Hammond aggregation play good ball tsterday but they hive been putting up the same sort of a game all year, ever sines their last defeat at the hands of Gary early in the season. In their struggle for first place in the K. cf C. Suburban League which position they attained only after a hard fight, they defeated such strong teams as South Chicago. Pullman. "Whiting, Harvey and '""hicaio Heights. Both Manager Himbaeh and Capt. Johnny Harle are to be -onimencIt-d for their hard work and untiring efforts in turning out a winning ball club and it is only hoped that they will be able to keep the same team intact for the rst cf the season so that tlv-y can go through trie balance of their schedule putting up a good stiff biit'e for the p-.nnt in the K. of O . Surburban League. Hammond was first to score In yesterday's game getting a run in the 4th when Murphy singled, stole second and then romped home on Sug Handy's long double over the left fielder bead.. Valpo tied it up in their half on a single by Davison and a three bass hit by Block. Block's long triple. C3me after Danny Boyle had just narrowly missed doubling up Davison on first, fo'.low'ng his marvelous catch, off the bat. of Peters, in left field. Valpo put over another run in the fifth when they filled the bases with none down. The first two men hit safe!;,- and the next batter bunted to Hilbrlch who threw too late to Chandler for a forceout and all hands were safe. Hiibrich tightened In this pinch. stru.-lc out the next

batter and Harle's snap throw to Murphy on the, third strike caught a runner off first. Murphy threw- the ball to Buddy who ran to third base to head off the runner who had started for th ; plate. After a short chase this man was retired, making two down with men cn first and second. On the next rltched ball Harle threw to second bass where he had the runner trapped off a city block but Buddy In bis hurry to get the man- at third Threw the bsll wild and Valpo went ah-'ad 2 to 1. Hilbrlch, wound up the inning by whiffingCole for the third ..ut. Valpo did not hold the lyead lor.gr as Hammond knotted the count again in the sixth. With one down Fiynn hit to th third baseman who heaved wild past first letting Flynn advance to second. Handy grounded to the first Backer who Instead of making a rlay at first heaved the ball across the diamond to get Flynn and all hands wre safe,. In this emergency T-mmy Harle drove nut a long sacrifice fly to left field allowing Flynn to score the tieing run. The count remained at 2 all up until th 11th as neither side was able to score in the meantime though Hammond hadl two good opportunities with a

runner cn second in the seventh and another on third in the ninth. Valpo only chance was in th tenth when Johnson walked and stole second' with two down but the third man went out f-hort to first. V.'ith one down in the Urn Sug Hnndy singled cleanly to :-ft md then went to tbird when Tommy H.-iri. socked another safe, drive tc right on a hit and run play. Harle stole second and with men on third and second and one down Buddy McLaughlin dumped a na.stly roller in front of the piate and it went for a cratch hit. Handy was off at the crack cf the bat and easily beat the pitcher's vain attempt to catch hi:n af the plate. The nut two men went out in order. Vnlpo tried hard to rally in their half but Hiibrich was to,,

much for them. ! The score; j Hammond ....0 " " 1 " ! 0 o o o I ?, i
