Show Berries Spoil Steel Day By Winning Last Industrial League Scheduled Game "All's well that ends well" said the Pleasant Grove Berries as they outran the Steelers in the last game of the regular season at American Fork Monday night. The 18 to 15 P.G. victory spoiled the closing moments of the Steel Day celebration for the third place Forkers. It was really Labor Day for the pitchers of both clubs; Pleasant Grove using Jackman, Huff and Wankier. American Fork sent Williams, Wil-liams, Tate, Saunders, and Varney to the rubber, in a vain attempt to bolster a lost cause. The long-ball hitters also came into their own. For the Berries Crump hit two over the fence and Huff one. Four-bag hitters for the steelers were Hardy with two, and Geis and Bain with one each. P. G. got hot early in the game, and at the top of the third, were ahead 5 to 0. In their half of the same inning the Forkers, with the help of three home runs, went ahead 7 to 5. It was a see-saw from then on to the eighth, when the Berries forged ahead 15 to 16; and in the ninth score two more to make it 18 to 15, to close the season in a blaze of glory. |
