Show Page Fifteen - The Springville Herald - May 11, The Springville Red Devil Baseball team, traveling to Cedar City last Wednesday, made their trip worthwhile, as they beat the Redmen 8-5, and improved their Region Six record to 5 wins and one loss. The game, held in ideal weather on a less than ideal field, was controlled by the Devils all the way and the last inning saw Cedar City score four runs with two outs. The game was only ended when Chris Mecham threw out a Redmen runner at second base with the bases loaded, giving everyone involved a sigh of relief. ' Mike Osborn, in his first pitching assignment of the year was very impressive im-pressive the first six innings, yielding only four hits and striking out six Cedar Batsmen. He gave up only one run in these first six innings, and this was an unearned run. Mike was not as fortunate in the last inning, though, as Cedar used three bases on balls, one hit, and two infield errors to push across their four runs and give the Devils a scare. Neither team scored in the first two innings, as Springville was having trouble solving the pitching pit-ching of Cedar's Robinson.

Mike Bulow started the scoring parade off with a walk, and this was followed by an opposite field double off the bat of Todd Whiting. Dave Larsen reached base on a walk, and the bases were loaded. Mike Thompson then recorded an RBI with a hard hit ground ball erred by the second basemen. John Brinkerhoff received the third free pass of the inning from Cedar's Robinson, and Chris Mecham smashed a ground ball right up the middle, bringing in another run. With two outs and men on second and third base, Kevin Hatfield came up to pinch hit and boomed a two run triple to the fence. Cedar City managed one run in their half of the inning, making the score five to one. Springville scored two more runs in the fourth inning, giving them a 7-1 lead. Cedar found Osborn untouchable until the 7th inning, and by that time the game was well out of reach, with the score 8-1. The game provided a good chance for some of the Devil's substitutes to see action, as it was really the first game the Devils have had this year that wasn't a cliffhanger. 3E "U FILE FOLDERS Box 100 Letter Size DOZ.

Girls make tracks, boys too The girls' track team at Springville High School has been running in meets with the boys' team this year. Although only 18 girls have come out for the team, they have been successful, with the sprinting and long distance events being the most outstanding.

The 440 yard relay team consists of Mikkee Wheeler, Connie Dove, Jodi Burrows, and Maxine Poulson. Susan Riding, who runs the 100 and the 220, and long jumps, has placed in every event in every meet she has competed in. Julia Welch, alias "Huck," is running well in both the mile and the two mile. She has never been defeated in the mile, except by the state record holder from Payson, and has never been defeated yet in the two mile event. In the 1500 (1 mile) meters, her best time is 5:32; her best time for the 3000 meters (2 mile) has been 11:37. There is no state record as yet in the two mile as it is a new event, and the team looks to "Huck" to set it. The medley relay team consists of : 220, Maxine Poulson; 110, Mikkee Wheeler; 110, Jodi Burrows; 440, Cynthia Hitchcock. The 440 runners are: Cynthia Hitchcock and Susan Larson.

A'C121W Devils get past limpvievj game Kevin Hatfield may not be the fastest pitcher in Region Six, and he may not be the flashiest, but one thing is for sure, he is a pitcher who gets the job done. Kevin and his team mates won probably their most important game to date here Monday, when they tefeated Timpview, 2-1, and vaulted themselves into first place in Region Six with a 6-1 record. The Devils will play their last Region Six game today, when they meet rival Spanish Fork on the Don's home diamond. This game is very important as to the outcome of the Region, and the Devils would really appreciate all the fan support they can get tonight at 4 p.m. Both teams went into the battle with 5-1 records. Timpview's ace pitcher, Macomber, was scheduled for the T-Birds, and Springville was countering with their number one pitcher, Hatfield. It figured to be a classical game, and the fans that showed up were not disappointed. Springville jumped to an early lead, as Mike Thompson, who reached base on an error, was brought in on a slicing line drive to right field by Springville's hottest hitter, Chris Mecham. From this inning on, the game was tingling with tension, as both teams knew that one bad break could ruin their chances for a Region Six championship. cham-pionship. Macomber and Hatfield proceeded for the next three innings to pitch almost effortlessly, putting down batters with the ease of professionals. Timpview didn't even get a base hit off Kevin until the fourth inning, and when they did, solid defensive plays by Springville's almost inpenetrable infield stopped any Timpview plans for a rally.

Evans Trucking B&PMeat Bish Harward & Sons Allan's Market (THIS AD SPONSORED BY THE BOYS Timpview finally got on the board in the top of the fourth, as their pitcher, Macomber, rapped a triple to right field, scoring Bret Downing. The Devils went down in the bottom of the fourth, stranding Cary Hansen on third base, and started the fifth inning as if it were a whole new game, with the score tied at 1-1. Hatfield put Timpview down in order, and the Devils were really fired up as they came in the dugout. Todd Whiting and Dave Larsen both made outs to start the inning, and it looked like another routine Macomber inning. in-ning. Mike Thompson came up with a single, though, and he was followed by another single, this one belonging to John Brinkerhoff. At this point, Sp-pringville's Sp-pringville's biggest break of the game occurred. Chris Mecham, batting with Thompson on third and Brinkerhoff on second, hit a hard gound ball to Bret Downing, Timpview's shortstop. Downing winged the ball to Scott Hymas at first base, and the umpire started to call Chris out, but changed his decision, giving the Devils the winning run. The call was very controversial, and Timpview was quite upset, as well they might be. The sixth inning was the most important inning of the game, as Springville's keystone combination of John Brinkerhoff on second and Mike Thompson on short turned a beautiful double play, squelching a prospective Timpview rally. The top of the seventh was the last block befor a Devil victory, and there were some pretty anxious moments experienced by the Devil coach, Kelly Clements, and all Devil fans before the victory was secured.

Todd Balser then flew out for the first out of the inning, but Springville had no time to breathe as Jim Jensen ripped a base hit, putting men on first and second base with one out. Timpview opted for the bunt here, and Todd Ashman popped the bunt up. Chris Mecham, playing heads up baseball, grabbed the ball in midair, threw to an alert John Brikerhoff, who completed the double play on first base, winning win-ning the game. Chris Mecham led the Devils with two hits, but it was a total team effort, and a very satisfying game indeed. & SPANISH FORK, UTAH Springville Sponsors: First Security Bank (Springville) Neil Whiting Springville City Allen's Cleaners Parkin Motor Nephi Maple Service Clyde Cazier Raphel C.
