But when score Rinks then scored one call, obvious to everyone in the park, partisan and opposition, goes the wrong way, and costs a team a baseball game and a chance at a State Tournament, the pain of human error cuts deep. Dramatic as it sounds, this was the exact and unfortunate incident that occurred in the Springville- Spanish Fork baseball game last Friday, and subsequently led to a 4-3 extra-inning Springville loss. The Devils battled Payson yesterday and travel to Dixie tomorrow. They are now 2-3 in Region Six play and 5-4 overall. The disputed call came in the bottom of the fourth inning. Tod Whiting, who led the inning off with a single, stole second base, and came racing for home on a Brad Cox single to right field. Tod clearly beat the throw at the plate, but was pronounced out by the umpire. Whiting had completely finished his slide, and his foot was planted squarely on home plate when the ball touched the catcher's mitt, but apparently the umpire felt he didn't touch the plate, and so Springville lost a run and finally the game. Spanish Fork, who's every run was unearned, struck very quickly in their first at-bats, as their leadoff hitter, Kent Clark, started with a home run on an error. Clark laced a line drive into centerfield, where Brad Cox misjudged the ball. Clark, using his blazing speed, raced all the way home on the hit, and gave the Dons a quick edge in the game. Spanish Fork scored two more runs in the top of the second, again, both unearned. Jim Salisbury, the Devils pitcher, began the inning by getting Spanish Fork's Shepard to ground out. Tim Jones then reached Salisbury for a single, but he was put out at second when the next batter, Pulsipher, forced him, so, with two out, and Pulsipher, who stole second, the only baserunner, the Devils were secure. However, the next batter, Mark Binks, rolled a grounder, and Springville erred it, Three straight bases on balls were all Spanish on Clark's base hit and the damage was done, as Spanish Fork extended their lead to 3-0. Springville got on the scoreboard in the bottom half of the second. Tod Whiting singled to open the inning, and was moved to second on Ken Howell's bunt. Garth Felix then reached on an error, scoring Whiting, and Springville had broken the ice. Neither team stirred in the 3rd inning, as Gary DeHaas of Springville and Garth Aitken of Spanish Fork had easy innings. The same was also true of the fourth, except for the uprising of the Devils mentioned before. The run Springville didn't get would have still left Spanish Fork's lead at one, at 3-2, but it was very important when seen in later perspective, especially after the fifth inning. The fifth inning saw Springville score two more markers to tie the game. Mark Averett started the rally with a single, and he came home on a booming double by Mike Bulow. Then, as Bulow advanced to third, a perfect suicide squeeze was inacted as Cary Hansen layed down a beautiful bunt to score the streaking Bulow. This tied the game, and the run not counted loomed bigger and bigger. Tony Ferguson, now pitching for Springville, put out the Dons bat fire in the fifth and sixth innings, in-nings, but Springville also had trouble hitting. Entering the final inning of play the seventh, the score was tied at 3-3 and Spanish Fork was up. Mark Binks, the first batter, walked and advanced ad-vanced to second base. Then, after two outs, Allen Julian rapped a base hit into left field. Binks sprinted towards home, but the throw from leltfielder Sean Francis was right on the money, and Binks was out at the plate, saving a run. Springville, unfortunately, un-fortunately, could muster no strength at all at the plate, as hard-throwing Jerry Burke baffled the Devils. So, the game progressed into the eighth inning. Devil Baseball Squad routs 1 -A Altamont By Sean Francis The Springville Red Devil baseball team, led by a 13 strikeout, two-hit pitching performance by Jeff Strong, easily defeated Altamont, 10-0. Jeff, just a Sophomore, went the distance for Springville, and gained his first varsity victory. Springville, after drawing a goose-egg in their initial inning, recorded one run in the second on base hits by Garth Felix and Mike Miner. After Strong mowed down the opposition's op-position's order 1-2-3 in the top of the third, the Devils let loose the floodgates, scoring 9 runs. Mark Averett opened the inning with a walk, and was driven on by Sean Francis's double. Mike Bulow then laced another double to left field, scoring Francis. Two more singles, by Cary Hansen and Tod Whiting, then accounted for another run. Ken Howell drew a base on balls, and then Miner picked up his second and third RBI'S of the game, as he lined a double. This pushed Springville's lead to one of 6-0, but the Devils were not through yet. With Miner on second base, Mark Averett stepped up and blasted a shot into deep center field, and didn't stop running until he had completed a circle for a home1 run. Francis, up again, scored on walked, and Altamont's error of Bulow's fly ball, finishing the 9-run inning. Springville's and Strong's main objective now was to keep a no-hitter no-hitter going, but Altamont broke the hitless skein in the top of the fourth on an infield single, and almost scored. Kelly Smith, however, in right field made a perfect throw to nail the base-runner at the plate, preserving the shutout. Springville, with almost all of the Junior Varsity players participating, never again threatened on offense, but ten runs were plenty, and the entire team had a satisfying victory. Mike Miner was. the top hitter for the Devils, as he had a single, a double and 3RBI. Teach me to live that I ;may dread I The grave as little as my bed.

Washington An outward and visible sign of an inward and spiritual grace. Book of Common Prayer scored a man from third base, and Spanish Fork had the go-ahead and eventual winning run. The blooper, fittingly, came from the bat of left-handed left-handed Jerry Burke, who batted as though he were handcuffed, and stopped Springville's batters in last chance for the Devils. Burke, Spanish Fork's relief ace, went through the meat of Springville's order 1-2-3 for the win, and bitter disappointment ran through Springville's team, as they realized what was and what should have been. Tod Whiting had an excellent day at the plate, collecting three base hits. Tim Jones led Spanish Fork with two hits. Plans are being finalized for two great nights of action-packed rodeo to be held June 8 and 9 in conjunction with Art City Days.
