Show BINGHAM LEGION TEAM LOSES TO HELPER, 11-5 The Bingham American Legion baseball team was defeated in the Utah state semifinals last Friday at Copperton by Helper, 11-5. The locals inability to hit when hits meant runs and the wildness of the pitchers was the real cause of the defeat. In three games Bingham averaged about three hits per game and this isn't enough to win. Helper didn't look' so good in the field, but they hit the ball well and their pitching was steady. Helper will play Brig-ham Brig-ham City Legion crew for the state championship and the right to play in the sectional tournament tourna-ment in Denver. Bailey Santistevan, Santis-tevan, coach of the local team states that Legion teams in the state this year are far below the standard of teams in other years. |
