Show SCORE IS TIED IN 10-INNING GAME In a pitchers' battle, in which Hoff, on the mound for Gunnison, and Woodhave, for Fairview, unquestionably un-questionably one of the best games of ball seen in Southern Utah this season was pulled off at Fairview last Saturday. The score stood 3 to 3 at the end of the tenth inning when time was called on account of dark-nes. dark-nes. ' Considerable rivalry has existed between the Fairview and the Gun-nlson Gun-nlson teams and from the very start of last Saturday's game until time was called, every man played ball and gave an exhibition of "classy work" that would do credit to some of rhe major league games. And the imme-'se crowd that gathered from all over the county thoroughly en-ioyed en-ioyed the exhibition. In the first inning for the Fair-view Fair-view team Day hit safely to first and later made the home plate through a hit by Woodhave. The opponents Ecored the other two runs in the fifth inning when two errors, credited credit-ed to Sorenson and Halverson, were made. Only one of the tallies was earned. From the fifth on Fairview failed to connect sufficiently to pile -. any more runs. It" was not until after the fourth inning that Gunnison "got busy." In the fifth Gunnison sent two across the home plate and followed this up with another score in their half of the sixth, but had to content them-belves them-belves the balance of the game with 'nothing more doing." Both Hoff and Woodhave were in splendid condition. Hoff, throughout through-out the contest, allowed three hits, while Woodhave was hit for seven. The support given both twirlers was good and those who witnessed the contest voted it the best ever seen in Sanpete county. Bet Called Off. Through a misunderstanding between be-tween the management of the Fair-view Fair-view and Gunnison teams, relative to the rules regarding the line-up of players that were to participate in the series of games for the ?50 0 purse, the three games for the money mon-ey have been called off. The arrangement ar-rangement for the purse was not made by either of the managers of the respective teams; however, Manager Man-ager Jones was willing to go through, but the Fairview management manage-ment wanted to dictate who should play for Gunnison, and this met opposition. op-position. After the facts had been made clear it was mutually agreed that the money that had been posted be withdrawn and this was done and the series, so far as tho side bet was ; concerned, was called off. Ephraim Pails to "Show." The game of ball scheduled for the Gunnison diamond last Sunday between Ephraim and Gunnison, after af-ter the game had been extensively advertised, failed to materialize. At the eleventh hour Ephraim phoned over that one of the players had a sore foot, while the other was suffering suf-fering from a lame arm. Ephraim suffered defeat at the hands of Gunnison Gun-nison last Friday with a score of 12 to 4 and this may have played a part in cancelling the Sunday game. |
