PIRATES CRUSH E. C. MASTERS By heavy hitting and errorless ball the Hammond Pirates matsacred the E. C. Masters, 10 to 1. Sweeney twirled air-tight ball, fanning five and yielding only four hits while Jabo fanned two. walked five and was plastered for eleven bits. It looked like a good game ior the first three Innings, with the score tied at one all, but ln the fourth Inning, the Pirate willow music started. To open the cannonade, Patton walked. Rice duplicated. Potts singled scoring Patton, Sweeney singled scoring Rice and Potts, Sweeney out on home. Red beat out a bunt and scored on Siaven's sizzling fingls. Four runs. Again ln the fifth, Kuschel singled and a moment later scorsd on Kallna's three base w-allop. One more rua. In the sixth Jabo was driven to the Bhowers. Sweeney waJked. Red walked. Blaven tingled filling the bases. Kusohel singled scoring Sweeney and Red , Dutch safe on error, scoring Slaven. and Patton sacrificed scoring Kuschel. This was too much for Jabo and he quit by popular request, Wheelan taking his place, who finally quieted the hit-crazed Pirates. The batting honors went to Kalina with a triple and a single, Kuschel with two singles and Sweeney with two one-base smitcks. Tha Hammond Pirates are the rightful claimants to the northern Indiana Junior championship. If there should be any other junior teams, having played all season and boasting of as clean a record as the local club can have games for ths championship to b played at Harrison park by calling 1S6S-R and asking for Sweeney.
