O’NEILL TRIMS NELIGH’S
ALL-SALARIED TEAM
O'Neill baseball fans are jubilant
over the game at Neligh last Sunday
when they defeated the Neligh all
salaried team 7 to 4 in an eleven in
ning game. The O’Neill team is com
posed of all home players with the
exception of Honeycutt, the pitcher,
whose home is at North Loup, Ne
braska. Honeycutt, is employed at
Sunset Lodge and will remain here
this year. Neligh has an agrigation
of ball players from the Norfolk
! state league.
The game was won from Neligh
with two men out and two strikes on
| the batter, the crowd had arisen and
j were starting home when Edmond
O’Donnell, a pinch hitter lined one
down past first for a safe hit scoring
a man on third. A couple of safe hits
tied the score. A rally in the eleventh
won the game.
Quincy, the Gordon twirler, pitched
for Neligh. The O’Neill boys were
hitting him regulary, but were un
able to place their hits.
The write-up from Neligh and pub
lished below credits O’Neill with only
!* hits while the score book shows that
O’Neill lined out sixteen safe ones.
Honeycutt struck out every man on
the team which is a very unusual oc
curance, especially on a strong team
like the Neligh bunch.
The following account of the garni
taken from the Monday issue of the
Norfolk News tells the story:
“Neligh Neb., May 28. After be
ing shutout for nine innings, O’Neill
tied the score when Neligh outfielders
made two errors in succession and
the local first baseman lost the ball,
and in the eleventh the Irish won the
game here when Quincy weakened
and allowed five hits that netted four
runs. The final score was 7 to 4.
“This was the second game of the
season for the home team and a good
crowd of fans were in attendance.
The Neligh boys played a good game
for nine innings and then it was a
race to see which individual of the
team could make the most errors. It
was apparent to the fans that Quincy
for the locals was off form, as he was
only credited with four strikeouts dur
ing the entire eleven innings.
“Score by innings:
O’Neill 000 000 00.‘i 04—7
Neligh 001 002 000 01—4
“Batteries: O’Neill—Honeycot and
Schoemeier; Neligh—Quincy and Til
ton. Struck out by Honeycutt. 12;
Quincy, 4. Hits—O’Neill, !); Neligh,
9. Base on balls off Honecutt, 1;
