THK fifth Inning was nearly over. Two Oak port players had failed to hit Brewster's slants safely, and nobody was on base. Pel bake, their catcher, waa at bat. "Judarn" M'-uea athletes hud the belter of the Wildcats thus far. V. Morgan Mor-gan had been unsteady tha opening; frame, and let them pueh over pair of runa. Sines then, however, he had been hp atingv as ths bird who owns an old-fashioned old-fashioned t-ellar. Tha score was 1 to in fnvor of tmkport. 'tiet lha laat one. boy!M I shout from the Itcrv-h. "Hound him outa there! Ita never hit ona In his life!" I waa wrong. Del bake smeared tha next witch fnr between left and center. It looked easily good for sevsral bags. Hut "Whli" Worth waa off at the crack of the ash. He leajied in the air, stabbed at the flying apple backhanded, and hauled it' in. Sweet Brand pop! What a catch that wan! "Come on. now, rang" I yodel, as the novs came to the bench, patting Johnny Worth on the back. "That kinds work d-nerve 9 a run. Let's nav it, Tuffy. You're up. "t.et on and I'll brine you In!" en a pa V. Morgan Br water, whose Jaw had been net ever slme that little turndown of Mian l.nia Chandler'. Southwirk fooled iRryKs with a couple of benders, and then Tuffy flailed a rotler toward Kibby, the Oakport short -at op, who could n't find tha handle la time. A man was on. "I'm roing to hit it. McOuff!M growls Brewster, who was pretty rood with lha willow. "No gAcriflc this time!' tio ahead!" I utter. 00 a hunch, though it wasn't baseball. Brewatrr didn't wait. The first bsH South wick delivered suited him snd he tied into It Ilka Tiny Crumb creasing a fat one. That thump muat have soured Suds considerable, for ths onion went to rest tn the top tier of the loft field bleachers. The count was even, 1 to I Johnny Worth followed ilh a walk, but bHuthwu-k tlsThiened up after Muddy Clay sacrificed, striking out Writ toy and Crumb. I ".Nice home run. boy!" I tell Brewster. ! as he lT"s out fnr the lat half of ths sixth.' 'Just hoM 'em now!" i 'Y hold 'em!" roars V. Morajan, very Crtm. . MrCue's men had something to say about that, however. Stung by his rival's smack. Snuthwick led off with a single. Roy Black bunted poorly and Brewster played th pill perfectly ta aernnd But IWrurley muffed tha pe, and all handa were safe. Wensel drove ona on the around to Wrta;ley. and one more Robin miaoued. Ths bases wers loaled, with none out. "Olv that uy some glue!" growls Manny Hat ion on th bench. "Wish my ankle waa right. Ha must want, to give Ihe game away." Frits Mails, ona of tha best outfield-era outfield-era In th minors, was now faring Brewster. Brew-ster. V. Morgan seemed cold as tea, and steady aa a clock. H cut over a fast one for a strike, and on tha next delivery de-livery changed pace. This was heady stuff and would have worked against most batters, but Malls ta a bird who hits anything at any time. He aorked tha onion on ths seam. Tha ball whistled toward center. Now happened on of th most wonder- i Ail plsye yours respectfully ever lamped. ; Aa Mails hit Brewster leaped Into tfce alrj with upthrust right arm and plucked that terrific drive outa th oaon with I his bare hand. Coming down to earth, he whipped the ball to Bloom, getting I Southwl'-k off the bag. and Curly re-la re-la ed the marble to second, where Black would hav been the last victim of a triple play had not Robiiv W rig ley contributed con-tributed hit third error, "Mr Ood' To spoil that play!" Cries Manny Hat ton. No murmur came from Brewster. Pitching with deadly precision, he struck out Riff Shannon for the final out of the Inning, and walked to tha bench unheeding unheed-ing the cheering fane. "Vat, I waa all thumbs I couldn't hold a thing!" aaya Robin W'rtjriey. seeming seem-ing all broke up. "It waa all my doing!" "Never mind Ifa over!" utters Brewster. Brew-ster. . "We re rotng to win. I tell you." Tb seventh, eighth and ninth stansaa passed without scores. It waa a won I derful bat Us at tha beginning of tha tenth. Simpson struck out. and Doyi filed to Mails.
