Bat meets ball with terrific impact and away soars the little sphere into far distant right fleld while the t®o base runners score, winning the game, and the batsman is eredited with a triple that was good for a homer, Final score § to 7. Such was the spectacular finish of the New Britain and Meriden police- men's game at St. Mary's fleld yester- day afternoon which was won by the locals. And “Slim" Politis, the husky twirler of the locals, was the mighty batsman, the king of swat for the da. Truly it was as exciting a finish ene could desire, especially since the Meriden team had pushed across what everybody thought was to be the wir- ning run in their half'of the jenth. Both teams played an interesting- to-watch brand of ball, but in running the bases the locals were woefully weak and in the early innings poor judgment on the bags lost several chances to clfich a victory. An idea may be obtained when it is seen that New Britain had 10 men left on the bags while their opponents had but three, Both Hit Hard The hitting by both teams was |snappy and clean and practically all the runs were earned by safe bingles. Smedick, who relieved Baer for Meri- den in the fifth inning, pitehed a good brand of ball, The téenth inning was his worst whén a pass, an error be- hind him and Politis’ smash brought in two runs. Politis was hit hard when he was hit. Two hits in the |third netted Meriden nothing but two in the fourth resulted in one run and three in the sixth added three more. In the eighth three hits meant two runs and in the tenth three hits Lrought in the extra tally. ~ The game was marred by injuries |to two Meriden players, Bolt having to retire in the fourth when a ball on the ground clippsd the end off the {little finger of his throwing hand. Alex also split a finger, but continued Politls, O'Mara and O'Brien were the hitting aces for the locals. “Slim" got a single, double and triple. O'Mara got two singles and a double and O'Brien got a double and a single. Tor Meriden, Wollschlaeger was the heavy hitter, getting four hits in five trips to the plate.
