Roger made a few attempts • to pick him off first base. On an attempt- ed stolen base, catcher Jacob threw wild to second and the run- ner went to third; Bartliff in centrefield momentarily muffed the wild throw, and Chippewa. scored the Winning run, 'Clinton made a strong :bid to tie the score in their half of the tenth when Pickett got on base by beingg hit by a pitched ball, Engel- stad forced hire out on a fielder's choice; then John Jacob hit a two - bagger, the only extra base hit of the game.
