Scrappy Ferguson started in the box for the Swanees and had good eon- trol of lots of speed but his support ‘weakened at critical’ times and the Nuggets scored 12 runs during their eight times at bat. Scrappy retired in the seventh inning in favor of An- dy Boyd who held the Nuggets to one run in each,inning. The Swanees played good ball with the exception of a few costly errors which came at critical times. Billy Bowen started in left field for the Swanees but gave way to Dave Shahan after he had mis- judged a high fly. There was a large gfowd at the game who thoroughly appreciated the game and the general opinion was that it was the best game yet play- ed at the Fairgrounds during the twi- light series.
