Although the game was played in a drizzling rain, it was an excellent contest throughout very few errors being made on either side. Big Verigan pitched an excellent game, keeping the hits well scat- tered, and he wag right there with the stick also, his two bagger in the third starting the scoring, He got in a few tight places but used his head l’ike a big leaguer. His support was gilt edged, only one error being made by Watson, which was not costly. One of the features of the game was the all around work of Spivey both in the field and at the bat. He grabbed four out of five chances, and got three hits out of four times at bat. , Bowden was hit freely, twelve hit§ being registered by the locals, and his support was ragged at times. The score by innings: First Inning For Brewster, Galloway singled and was caught off first, Medina out at first. Brown fanned. For Lakeland—Riggins, Sawyer and Spivey out at first. No runs.
