American League clubs partici- pated in the opener. Key West Conchs and the newly-organized Merchants’ staged a nip-and- tuck affair right up to the end of the contest: The teams had their fighting togs on and there was a lot of pep displayed’ from start to fin- ish. Two players, J. Soldano and Cordova, were put off the field by the umpire. J. Aritas and Cordova were the leading hitters, with two safeties in three times at bat each. Aritas’ hits were good for a double and a triple, Cordova’s for a triple and a single. Joe Sol- dano poled a home run for the losers in the second inning to knot the count. R. Valdes, Espinola and H. Pita were the stars afield for the Mer- chants, and G. Lastres, Early and A. Lastres were outstanding for the Conchs. Three fast double plays were executed during the contest. Score by innings: R. H.

Soldano; three-base hits: Aritas, Cordova, Pita; two- base hits: Aritas, Alonzo; struck out: by Early 3, by Albury 2; bases on balls: off Early 5, off Al- bury 1; time of game: 1:00. ONE-SIDED SCORE IN FINAL BUT WAS EXCITING GAME In the second game, Sawyer’s Barbers won from the Blue Sox by the one-sided score of 8 to 4, but the contest was an interest- ing one. Sox extended the Bar- bers until the last inning, when a four-run rally put the game on ice. Eugene Roberts made his first ‘appearance on a _ diamondbail field after an absence of three years. He held the hard-hit- ting Barbers to 11 safeties, four of which came in the final frame. Sox scored the first run of the game in the second inning when Castellano hit the ball to center and it got away from the field- er. It was good for a homer. Sawyer’s boys came right back in their half of the same canto to knot the count as Kerr singled and Navarro doubled him home. In the next inning, the Bar- bers shoved over three markers another base on balls, a double by Dom- enech and a triple by Sterling. In the fourth, Sox at bat, M. Arias tripled and a long fly to center brought him home. The score then stood four to two in favor of the Barbers. In the first-half of the sixth, the Sox tied the game up again. A base on balls, a fielder’s choice, an error by Navarro and singles by M. Arias and, Garaballo pro- duced two runs. “~* But then came the fatal sev- enth—Barbers at bat: J. Roberts another triple, scoring Roberts; Kerr flied out, Sterling scoring; Navarro singled; Joe Russell hit a home Tun to deep center field, scoring Navarro ahead of him—and that won the ball game. Sterling, who poled two triples in three tries; J. Russell, who hit a triple and a homer; Navarro, who produced a double and a single, and J. Roberts, two singles —all in three chances at the plate—were the leaders at bat for the victors. Arias poled a triple and a sin- gle in two official tries for the losers and J. Garcia hit a single and a triple in four times up. Castellano blasted a homer and 1 Albio Acevedo accounted for a ‘double. Sawyer’s pulled three double plays, as three of their players, Hopkins, Tynes and Kerr, per- formed in great style on the field. Albio Acevedo, Castellano and C. Rosam were stars for the Sox.
