Show ... .... .-y- ... i ..mi i Sports Mere and There by Al Ablett Cowdell jerked off another one hitter against Monroe to win 11 to 1. The third man up in the first inning hit a home run to left field and that was the end of the Rams for the rest of the day. But with Shipp pitching air tight ball for Monroe it looked like it might be a real close ball game. , George Apostal tied up the game in the third with a triple to score the tieing run. The tie was short lived because in the fourth the roof caved in on Shipp. The Miners went on to score four runs in that inning and got six more during the next five frames. In the meantime mean-time Marion Cowdell, Bingham's lean left hander, had found the range and he set the Rams down without a hit or run. He was backed up by about as good defensive de-fensive ball as one will see in high school any where. Ronnie Kastelic made a great play and throw on a ball hit deep in the hole. The Miner shortstop played play-ed great ball all during the game. Sonny Robertson at third was another bulwark on defense coming up with high bounders and slow hit balls and with that buggywhip arm getting his man by two and three steps. John Mitchell at second for the Miners Min-ers is the most improved player in high school circles. Coach Santistevan has done a great job with this boy. So much for that game, the big one is today (Wednesday). They go against Delta for the state Class B championship. I am honest I didn't think the Delta boys could get over Spanish Fork with the Jones boy pitching for the Forkers, but they did. So it looks like the Miners have their work cut out for them. The Jack Rabbits have in Fullmer one of the best pitchers in Class B circles. cir-cles. But I must string along with Bailey's Miners, a good kid ball club. You will probably see the results elsewhere in this edition. The local entry in the Industrial Indus-trial league won one and lost one in the past week. Vic Stucken-schneider Stucken-schneider beat Brigham City 9 to 6. Vic looked like he did in '50. They lost to Provo 14 to 8. Couldn't stop Provo from having a big inning. Bob Saunders entered the Industrial In-dustrial league "hall of fame" last week by pitching a no hit no run game against American Fork. Bob had everything and he was backed up by a strong defense. The former Cincinnati hurler has pitched great ball all year, and to my notion the best curve ball he has ever had. Bob broke a finger in Elko last year and I think the rest was just what his arm needed. That 3 to 0 shut out is just the start for this boy. . One of the best looking boys in the league is Ray Tellerole of Helper. He has always been a good hitter and this year his fielding has caught up with his hitting. Another good looking rookie is Faux of Provo. Mike Wood was a catcher when he was with Helper but Mike turned turn-ed pitcher last year in pro ball and this year with American Fork he looks like a good one. Another good fight card lined up for Tuesday in Salt Lake. Garth Panter takes on the tough coast middleweight Jiminez and Halloway takes on Keith Nuttall. Bob Ford, the local light heavy, takes on Sneddin of Ogden. Bob should win. But regardless of the winners this should be a good card. See you next week. AL O |
