ie eae eneD - Conchs Swamp NAP REYES POUNDS OUT DOUBLE AND THREE SINGLES: HAACK HURLS WIN The Key West Conchs blasted three Tampa pitchers for 16 base hits last night to defeat the Tam- pa Smokers behind the big gun of Nap Reyes to cop the four game series by a three to one margin. Russ Mossman, Conch starting pitcher got off to a bad start when he walked three of the first four batters to face him in the first inn- ing as Chapman poled a two run double to center field. The Smokers put anther mark- er across the plate in the second frame as Garcia walked and was sacrificed to second by Murphy and scored on Gonzalez, line sin- gle to right, Key West scored it’s first tally in the fourth inning on Venn’s opening doube to left center, Tom- my went to third on a fielders choice and crossed the plate on Solis’ grounder to second. In the fifth tne Conchs took a one run lead as they scored three times on a walk by Mendez, a fielder’s choice and Reyes double Another marker in the sixth put the locals two runs ahead but the Smokers came back with a strong three run rally to gain a one run lead over Key West. Pascual forced Chapman, who had singled to center at second, Anderssohn drew a base on balls, the sixth is- sued by Mossman and both run- ners scored on Garcia’s long drive to center for a triple. Barney Lutz dropped Baxter’s high fly inside the right field foul line and Garcia scored on the error. Fireman Dick Haack relieved Mossman in the eighth and held the Smokers scoreless for the bal- ance of the contest, allowing but one hit in each frame. The Conchs blasted two Smoker hurlers, Bax- ter and Red Barrett for four runs on fiye hits in the top of the sev- enth to gain the win. Nap Reyes with a double and three singles led the Conch batting attack. Reyes was responsible for four of the local counters, batting in two and personally scoring two. (Elsewhere in the loop, all teams seem to have broken out in a scoring rash when 38 runs were scored,--the largest number in any four games since May 13th. Five games produced 39 runs on June 2nd Havana trimmed Lakéland, 7-6; Miami defeated Miami Beach, and St. Petersburg won from West Palm Beach by identical scores, 32. Billy Darden shut.out Miami Beach until the ninth and allowed only four hits allthe way for his tenth win against five defeats. Three singles netted Miami two in} the first and another came on! three walks and a single in the second. : St. Petersburg rallied for runs in the seventh, eighth and ninth to edge West Palm Beach although the Saints got only five off Charlie Harris. Neb Wilson's ninth home run of the year in the ninth with one out provided the winning margin. Lakeland outhit Havana, 96 in a parade of pitchers. Al Zilian and Dinty Moore worked for the Pilots while Havana used four hurlers, Zilian was the loser and Sixto Echevarria the winner.)
