WALK-AWAY GIVES PAPS TOP PLACE Only One More Moose Vic- fory Needed to Cap- ture Pennanl SCORE LAST NIGHT Moose 10; Douglas 3 SCORE BY INNINGS 1234567 TL Moose 002 2—10 Douglas EXS e . w | Big Bill Ramsey weakened to give eight hits and only one walk last night after Koski was knocked from the box in the third, and the Doug- Jas nine fell by the way to give the Moose a 3 to 2 lead in the 4 out of 7 game series for the championship of Gastineau Channel. After walking five men, allowing two hits and putting Ramsey on the spot with the bases loaded, none away and three runs alréady gone by the board, Koski went to the showers, turning the precarious posi- tion over to Ramsey. Until the fifth when Ramsey soar- ed out a one-run homer, the game was a shut-out for Kern, who scat- tered only six hits during the game. It was a frolicdrom the start for the Moosemen when they skeptically saw Koski on the mound, and wondered if he could be still as good as he was two games ago when he whipped the lodge team. He wasn’t. Freak Play The former Elk hurler walked Fritz Schmitz after Guy had ground- ed out in the first frame and then the fans waited for clean-up hitter Joe Snow to pick up the bat. He singled and in' came Schmitz. Snow, himself, came in for a score when willey tried to catch him off third, threw the ball to Taguchi, and hit Snow on the back of the neck. The ball bounced out into the field and Snow came in during the melee. Again in the fourth the Islanders sagged their chins as four runs came by. Guy was walked by Koski, Schmitz made first on Manning's bobble, and John Skok took a hard single to allow Guy to score. Snow was walked, and with the bases load- ed, Ramsey went to the mound for Koski. The hard-hitting, hard-hurl- ing pitcher walked Kern to force in Schmitz. then settled down to strike out Clancy Converse.One was away, and when Skok ventured too far off third and was caught in a hot-box, Ramsey glommed on to the ball and ran the stubby catcher down to make the second out. He gave Sturrock a single on the next man up, however, and Snow and Kern came in for the third and fourth runs of the frame. Grummett struck out for the first of his three times during the battle and the inning was over. Bad Time for Homer With two men out and no one on the bases, pretty-boy Ramsey leaned on one of Kern’s fast ones and it went out over center field fence, in the next inning; it was only one run, but the shut-out was broken. Hopelessly out-numbered in runs, the Islanders kept in there pitching ball, but the Moosemen cinched the game with four more runs and ended | the contest at the end of the seventh | after a two-run Douglas rally in the ! sixth. | The box score follows: | MOOSE Player | Guy, If.
