149 FRIDAY, OCTOBER 9, ! SOLDIERS TRIM SAILORS IN BALL GAME YESTERDAY CONTEST RESULTED IN LOP- \ SIDED SCORE, 13-1; DECID- ING GAME FOR TITLE ON WEDNESDAY Grady McNabb & Co.—namely the baseball players represent- ing Fort Taylor in the Shaugh- nessy championship finals against the Naval Operating Base—even- ed the series at one-all last night by shellacking the sailors 13-3. The deciding game for the title of the Key West Service League will be played on the Navy’s new diamond next Wednesday night at 5 o'clock. McNebb, the stellar man from Jacksonville, was just about the whole show in the Army’s slashing triumph which mounds- evened scores for the bluejackets’ '§-4 win in the first encounter. He not only muffled the Navy’s ordinarily powerful bats by al- lowing them but seven scattered hits but also won his own game in the second inning when he laid out a long home run with The bases loaded to a nine-run rally The contest, shortened to five innings because of darkness, showed the Fort Taylor boys in command all the way. After a scoreless first frame, they laid into the NOB’s Lefty Seay and pounded him from the box. It wasn’t al] Seay’s fault, how- ever, because the bluejackets’ in- field fell apart at the same time, committing five misplays before finally retiring the side. spark The fans knew then that the is- ; sue had been settled for the night but the sailors nevertheless } kept pecking away and managed to get their first score on a hom- er by Pete Dixon in the third i two more runs in the fifth That fatal second started with Bob, Yje ted, Army left- fielder, getting a single.
