Sixth Inning in a Score of 8 to 5,
The Same Clubs Play Again Today
and Tomorrow.
(From Tuesday's Dally.)
The gamq between Valdosta and
Albany yesterday afternoon resulted
In a victory for the locals- by a score
of eight to five.
The game was largely a comedy
of errors, as both teams played with
looseness and Indifference. The vis
itors seemed to he somewhat rattled,
while the locals played just hard
enough to keep ahead of them.
Weakley and Walters did the battery
work for Valdosta while Posey and
Dudley held the points for Albany.
The best feature of the game waa
running catch by Mitchell and a
three bagger by Weakley. The score
by Innings was as follows;
R. H. E.
Valdosta 0 2 1 3 2 0—8 9 7
Albany 0 1 0 0 0 4—B 7 '4-
The game was called on account
of darkness at the end of the sixth
inning.
