AGON, GA.—Augusta made a clean sweep
of the series, winning Saturday’s game from
the Peaches 9to 5. The locals got away to
a bad start with Bolt pitching, he filling the
bases and forcing in a run in the opening
inning. Swinson relieved Bolt while cold
and Augusta piled up four more runs in the
opening round.
Macon hit Paul Johnson hard, but they could not
overcome the lead of the visitors. ____o
The Augusta Tyged, now leading the league by
six games, journey over to Greenville Monday for a
three-game series. ~
The Neemen return home Thursday for a week s
stay, playing Spartanburg and then Charlotte.
Augusta won six out of seven games during the
week just ended—and three of the games were from
Zinn Beck, who predicted that the Tygers would
crack when hot weather set in.
In spite of the addition of several
new plavers to the opposing club,
the Augusta outfit experienced lit
tle trouble in holding the Peaches
in hand for the third defeat of the
series. Macon's new manager,
Ernie Burke, was stationed on the
first sack, at which position he
fielded In grand style. Francis and
Hunter, two other new players, al
so appeared In Macon Uniforms.
There was nothing spectacular
about the contest. The Tygers
merely put on their batting clothes
waded into the offerings of Lee
Bolt and Lil Swinson, and won the
game. Five two-baggers and a
home run from Hartline's bat ac
counted for the extra base blows
chalked up by the visitors, while
eight singles helped the good work
along. Johnson scattered Macon's
hits and was especially good in tho
pinches.
That first inning hurt the
Peaches badly for Augusta count
ed five times. Three passes, Bank
ston’s single and Thomas’ two
sacker did the work. Bolt was re
lieved after the bases had been
filled and one run forced in. Swin
son allowed the other four mark
ers. Hartline smashed one over
the fence in the third while two
were added in the sixth stanza.
One lone run in the eighth ended
the scoring of the Nee clan.
Macon counted twice in the
third, and twice in the ninth. Those
last'two counters looked like a big
rally but the Peaches were unable
to overcome that margin piled up
by the Tygermeh in the first in
ning.
The series Just completed end
i i the hostilities between Macon
and Augusta in this city. The
Peaches are scheduled to Journey
to the League Leaders’ camp one
more time before the season closes
SUNDAY, AUGUST 10
and local fans believe that Macon
will show up much better on ac
count of the recent change effect
ed in the personnel of the club.
