In the Central Carolina league
games highlighted Tuesday night, the
Clinton Cavaliers overtook the power
laden Joanna Hornets to move ihto
first place by a slim half game lead.
The lead has been see-sawing back
and forth between Clinton and Jo
anna for about two weeks, although
neither team has been able to gain
moye than the half game lead over
the other. Clinton moved into the
top spot via a victory over the last
place Watts Warriors while the Hor
nets were being debeated by the
Riegels fi^om Ware Shoals last Tues
day night.
Cavaliers Climb Over Watts
Clinton’s Cavalier's came from be
hind a one run lead held over them
in the fifth by the Warriors to roil
up four runs of their own which
would have been a suitable margin
for victory as they edged past the
visiting crew five to three.
Zeb Eaton hurled his third win
for the Cavaliers by getting eight
men out by strikeouts, walking only
one and giving Up only six base hits.
Things looked dark for the Clinton
club in the very first inning when a
walk, a couple of hits, and an error
gave the Warriors a one run lead.
The game progressed with the Watts-
men holding the lead until the Cava
liers had their big fifth inking. Clin
ton’s runs were produced on four
hits, a walk, and two wild pitches
on the part of Watts’ starting pitcher,
Roy Bridges, formerly with the third
place Ware Shoals Riegels. In this
inning the pitcher, Zeb Eaton, gave
the Clintonians the margin for vic
tory as he belted a triple with one
Tnan on the bases and then scored
himself on Bridges’ wild pitch. This
was the first hit Eaton ha^ collected
while with Clinton and he picked a
fine time for his powerful poke.
Clinton threw the deep freeze on
the score in the sixth as they ran one
more run across the plate as the pro
duction of a couple of singles by
Mickey Livingston and Ellis Huff-
stetler.
The Warriors made a stab at a
comeback in the sixth but garnered
only two runs in their interpreta
tion of the “ ’ole college try." These
two runs scooted across the big base
after Thomas, Watts’ clean up man,
lashed forth with a four bagger with
teamamate Roy Peeler on base.
The Cavaliers’ competent second
baseman, Aravelo, came through
with top batting honors by connect
ing with three of Bridges’ fat pitch
es for four times at bat. Peeler was
the only Warrior to hang his war
club on two hits.
Joanna Edged By Reigels
The Joanna Hornets wound up on
the short end of a low scoring two
to one contest with the Reigels in
Ware Shoals last Tuesday night as
they were the victims of the old hit
and run play in the freakish fifth.
With the score all knotted up at
one apiece, for the Reigels and the
Hornets, the Ware Shoals manager
put on the hit and run with one man
on first and Douglas at bat. Doug
las hit and Phillips ran, all the way
home on a single. This was the last
score made by the Reigels but it was
Jftghly sufficient to win the game for
the Ware Shoalers.
The Joannians were handcuffed
with five hits by Reigel flipper, Andy
Hawthorne. The Riegels managed to
swat nine blows off Joannians Moore
and Cudd.
Pitcher Johhn Moore abolished the
old proverb about pitchers can’t hit
(as far as he was concerned) by com
ing through with two singles in three
times up. Big Jake Daniels was the
only other Joanna protege to garner
more than one single. Daniels hit
safely for two singles for four times
at bat. Phillips gathered in two hits
for three trips to lead the Ware
Shoalers at the plate.
Three errors were committed be
fore the crowd of 1,300, two on the
part of Ware Shoals and one being
