Gentlemen, Name Your Weapons. | An ardent baseball fan, who sees fit to sign himself only as “A Base- ball Fan” but who evidently has more than a passing interest in the so-called “younger fellows,” has sent to The _Herald the following pithy | communication relative to the merits | of the several baseball aggregations. This items, printed below, may pos- sibly cause some to “see red” but should not be taken too seriously: | “When the Plainville “Big” team was organized the fans of the town thought the team was big and ‘worthy ensugh to represent the town on the diamond, but with the season half over, we see that it is not so. “‘Last Sunday due to the fact that the Crimsons did not show up, the Aces, (a team made up of the young- er men of the town), very generous- ly offered to play them a practice game in order that the fans would not be disappointed. The game pro- ceeded very nicely up to the third inning when the Aces scored the first two runs of the game. Kalisk, on the mound for the “Big” team was all up in the air—it certainly looked good for the young fellows. Then, the “Big” team tightened up and with the few errors made by the Aces won the game at the end of the ninth inning by the score of 9 to 3. “It was not due to the superior hitting of the “Big” team that they won the game, but rather due to the errors made by the young fellows. The “Big” team made only eight hits while the Aces came right behind with seven. “You might wonder why I am writing this communication. The rea- son is this:’ The next day when the news was given out for publication the “Big” team was ashamed of.the fact that they won by such a score. They knew that they should have won by a larger score than 9 to therefore they told a vicious false- hood and stated that up to the fifth inning the score was 14 to 3 and that after that count was lost. “Doesn’t that show that the “Big’ team is nothing but a bunch of four flushers? So far this season they have played only one really good team—Colored Giants, and they wouldn’t have won from them except through some very raw decisions. The other teams they played except for the Forestville A. C. were more in a class to be stacked up against the Aces than against the “Big” team. ‘Why doesn’t the °‘hig’ team play ‘Pexto’ from Southington or Annex from New Britain, or ‘Echoes’ of Hartford or some other really fast teams? They certainly should play the Aces a series at the end of the season for the town championship. Thanking you very kindly for the space this will take up in your val- uable paper and hoping that it will better baseball conditions in Plain- ville I am, “A BASEBALL FAN.” Plainville Personals.
