Show BMA FLASHES by Jim Abplanalp BDAA WINS TWO NEAR FIRST HALF TITLE The local baseball nine garnered garner-ed wins over Doc Johnsons and Midvale the past week to assure a tie for first half laurels in the Northwest loop. Last Sunday, the Bingham squad trounced their nearest rivals, ri-vals, Doc Johnsons 11 to 2, behind be-hind the fine hurling of Larry Stillman. Larry went all the way. allowing only seven scattered bingles, and was never in trouble as he had the Sandy crew completely com-pletely baffled. Little John Gara-hana Gara-hana furnished most of Bingham's Bing-ham's power, as he homered twice over the right field wall to drive in five runs. Against Midvale, the locals punched across the winning run in the eighth after a six run splurge by Midvale in the seventh, sev-enth, tied up the game. Lefty Hilton hurled shutout ball for six. but was relieved by Sum-nicht Sum-nicht and Ken Austin. Bingham now has a record of eight wins and three losses. Doc Johnson's has won six and lost four, and a win against Magna tonight, Friday, will give Sandy a chance to tie up the standing when they meet the locals at Sandy in a game that was previously pre-viously rained out. Bingham would become first half champs if they could again down Sandy in the postponed skirmish. The first half could end in a tie, if Doc's takes both games. Second half play is scheduled to get underway Sunday, July 10. |
