Both games were | seven inning affairs. Gov. George A. Parks officially set the 1928 season going by heaving the first ball to Mayor Thomas B. Judson. This wa: preceded by a parade of the ball players and City League officials from the grandstand to the flag- pole in center field where Man- ager McKinnon of the Moose raised the 1928 bunting. The, largest opening day crowd was on hand, the stands and bleach- ers being filled almost to ca- pacity. Champions Open Season The Moose champions tilted the lid, with the Miners for op- ponénts. The latter lost through errors and some poor baseball in the initial frame. Stair, who heaved for the losers, had an edge on Schmitz, but the latter was given good support in the pinches and heaved steady ball all the way through. The Miners nicked Pete for eight safeties, including a circuit clout and a two-bagger, both gar- nered by Robertson. Vale, Moose shortstop, also clouted out a homer. Schmitz struck out eight and Stair seven men. The latter walked one and hit two batters while Schmitz had a perfect re cord. Five in First It looked like runaway ball when the Moose shoved five men over the plate in their half of the first inning. Bill Schmitz was safe when Hollmann missed his grounder near second. He went to second on a passed ball. Vale fanned. Pete Schmitz singled to right center, scoring brother BIll. Jimmy McCloskey threw to first to nab Pete but Habernich wasn't on the sack and Pete went on to second. Jung rolled down third base line near the plate and Little Mac MacSpadden, digging it out of the dirt, snapped the ball to third in an effort to catch Schmitz. Robertson was off the base and again Pete was given lite. F. Schmitz was hit by a pitched ball, filling the bases. Jernberg singled past second, scoring P. Schmitz and Jung, and sending F. Schmitz to third. Jernberg went to sec- ond on the return from outfield to the plate. A passed ball scored F. Schmitz and put Jernberg on third. Nello walked. Shusta hit to Habernich who threw Jernberg out at the plate, the batter being safe at first and Nello at third. In an effort to catch him at second, MacSpadden threw to center field. McCloskey’s throw to head off Nello at the plate was wide and he scored standing up. Shusta was out trying to steal third, end. ing the frame. Tie in Third The Miners got one of these runs back in the second and tied it by scoring four more in the third. In the second inning, J. McCloskey singled to center, and went to second when Jung miss- ed Schmitz’s throw to catch him napping. E. McCloskey drov> the ball to right and Brodie let it get away from him, scoring Jimmy. In the third, Habernich shot‘ one to left which Jernberg al- most misjudged - then dropped. Little Mac singled, advaneing him a bag. Habernich stole third and Little Mac pilfered second. Big Mac singled scoring both runners, took third on the throw-in, -and scored on a wild picth. Hnllmum{ rolled out, Nello to Jung. Rob- 13.

McClos- key and Campbell fanned with two men riding the sacks. Mcose Break Tie Vale hit one of Stair's fence, balls on the nose in the fifth frame and rode it out of the park for the circuit. This gave the Moose one to the good and they added another in the sixth which wasn't needed at the time but proved to be the winning score. With one away, F. Schmitz was kit by a pitched ball, took second on a wild pitch, third on an in- field tap by Jack Kearney and scored on a wild heave by Haber- nich. The Miners tried to stage rally in the seventh but were one run short of tying. Robertson smacked' out a long double over left field, went to third on Stair’s sacrifice fly to right and scored on a passed ball. Schmitz fin- ished strong by striking out both McCloskeys.

Seventh Frame Rally A seventh inning rally in.which two miscues played a prominént part gave the Veterans the vic- tory in the bargain section of the opening day. Up to that time the Elks had led 4 to 2 and seem- ed to have the game iced away so smoothly was the team work ing. Four hits and two errors netted them four runs and Mann- ing held the Elks helpless in their half of the seventh. Eldred’s hitting played a majox part in the Veterans' winning. In four trips to the plate he swatted out a triple, a two-bagger and a single. In addition, called from infield to catch after Thomas re- tired in the third with a hurt ankle, he caught a pretty game. The Vets scored twice in the first on three successive hits. Hanna and Bob Keaton were easy outs to start the frame. Thomas singled off Scott’s hand with a hot grounder. Eldred smashed one for three bags over center and Mannidg clouted one in the same direction for two bases. Thomas scored on Eldred's drive and the latter off Manning's. Blake scored for the Elks in their half of the same inning. He was hit by a pitched ball, sacri- ficed to second by Coughlin and scored on Jackson's sizzling sin- gle to left. They took the lead in the second on a walk, a hit and an error which combined gave them two runs. Scott drew a pasg and Koski slammed out a three-bagger to deep left. Orme and MecAlister flew out to left Blake rolled to the mound and ‘Grummett dropped Isakson’s throw at the bag, Koski scoring. From the first to the seventh inning, Koski was seldom in dan- ger. He was wild occasionally i Detroit 2; but tightened in the close Philadelphia places. Good support saved Isakson in the third and the Elks added their fourth and last coun- ter in the fourth inning. Koski| singled. Orme hit a grounder to short and Grummett, who fielded it perfectly, threw it wild to sec- ond, both runners being safe. Mc- Alister also hit to short forcing Orme, Grummett to Hanna, Mec- Alister being safe at first and Koski going to third. McAlister stole second and Koski scored from third when Hanna failed to cover second to take Eldred’s peg, McAlister goingon to third. Blake grounded to second and McAlister was caught at the plate trying to score. Henning fanned for the| third out. up ped out to Cunningham and Scott fanned. Box Score and Summary Am.
