Rogers Real Puzzle To Camden Ratters "Jeep" Rogers, classy h high school slab artist smut in these parts in many moons, handcuffed the Cam* 1 den diamond pustimers ut tbo ntuulot- I pal ball park hero Wednesday, giving up but two hits while his inalea climb- . ed on "Rod" Lynch for eight blows, ' which mixed with enough misplays to last an entire seaaou, gave the Caps 8 t0 I victory. Idti^ood Smith's laddies started to study aviation in the second frame, after a major league performance in the initial stanxa. The Bulldog gang were a bit cocky after taking up a one run lead in the first frame when Cox, safe on an error by Hlacknton, scored when Robinson poked a drive into far right landed flush to the fair side of the foul line and was good for three bags. Hut in the second inning the visitors began to operate. BullSrd gathered a nice single, stole second and romped lu when Tate connected for a nice placement. Tate checked In the larceny column by pilfering second and went to third of Grimsley's out at first after Thompson had fanned. Umpire Russell waved Tate home after Lynch had committed a palpable balk. That ended the scoring. but J. Harrison managed to get a single and raced to third on a ceuter field blunder. After that one run annexation ou the part of tho locals in the first inning that boy Rogers really got stingy and it was not until the ninth inning that Lynch managed to grab a hit, the second of the game off the tall boy from over yonder. in tho second, third, fifth, sixth, seventh, eighth and ninth inn^igs but three batters a session faced Rogers. in the fourth an error by Taylor at third gave Robinson a life at first but he died there. ,v- Lynch was visibly shaken by the blowup of the second frame, but he steadied down beautifully In the third and the game became a pitching duel between the two clever moundsmen. In the fifth, however, auother infield error shook the red head's, complacence and a triple and single put over two more runs for the Invaders. Lynch bore down again in the seventh and Columbia bowed in one, two, three order. In the eighth with one down Taylor walked and stole second. An infield error gave Bullard a life and scored Taylor. Bullard stole second and went to third on another Infield mtsplay. Taylor tried) to stretch the daBh and score but a fast peg from Taylor to Cox caught him aB he sltd in. Columbia scored again in the ninth When Grimsley-was safe on an error. The Camden team blew up completely and when Orlmsley stopped running he had reached the third sack. He scored from that point on an infield tap which Cox threw to first to kill Rogers. B. Harrison singled and when the ball got past the outfielder in right raced to third, dying there when Blackmon went down Moore to Taylor. Only a small turnout of fans witnessed the game, which was played in one hour and fifty minutes. The downpour of rain shortly before game time cut down the attendance. While the exhibition on the part of the Bulldogs was somewhat of a Jittery affair, professional ball clubs have staged the same kind of a comedy, only to come back the next day and play beautiful ball. The wholesale recording of misplays Wednesday probably blew the error complex out of the team and when the BulldogB face Newberry this afternoon at the municipal ball park, a greatly iim proved brand may be looked for.
