and brought in two men and after that
Irwinton went for the visitors and
piled up a score of twelve to four,
Isenberg did fine work at bat all
through the game, Buck Dixon also
stood out as a swatter in this game.
Leonard Sapp pitched the entire game
for Irwinton and the team and the
fans are proud of his w irk.

playing to hold each other down tight
so long, Our team is about completed
