ERRORS PAVE WAY
TO OMAHA VICTORY
' 1 1 ..
Cochran Contributes Two Suc
cessive Muffs Which Gives
Rourkes Chance to Make ' .
Winning: Tally.
Two very nett and nifty errors by
Mr. Cochran, chesty shortstopper for
the hpted opposition, paved the way to
an . enjoyable , eighth-inning; rally
which gave the do luxe Rourkclcts a
S-to-2 victory qver the Savage Miner
yesterday, and enabled Fa s Pets to
. nuke the record for the series, three
out of four.
Until the eighth inning, Roy San
dera held the Rourkes in the hollow of
his pitching mitt. Then Cochran blew
and banders blew right with him.
Phillip Cooney drew a walk to start
the frame. Theh Marty Krugr rolled
a dinky one to Cochran and a double
play scenu-d inevitable. But the ac
commodating Mr. Cochran hobbled
the pill. Then Ward Miller hit a
roller to Cochran and another double
play sceined a cinch, But again the
accommodating Miner shortstop er
red, and the bases were full.
OToole Delivers. s
Shaw forced Miller at second, but
Cooney scored on the play andy Krug
went to' third. Yardley tore oil a
beautiful single to center, scoring
. Krug. Shaw went to third and-Yard-
Icy scooted to second on the throw
in. Brottem was purposely walked,
filling the bases and Graham sum
moned to take the place of the ex
pired Mr, Sanders. Thompson
grounded out to Lamb, , but Lamb
juggled the ball long - enough for
Shaw to score. Marty O'Toole was
inserted to pinch hit for McGuire and,
believe us, Marty did some job. His
single to left , scored Yardley and
, Srottem and iced the combat.
McGuire Doei Well.
Peter McGuire burled a nice game
for Omaha and was only yanked to al-
low O'Toole to pinch for him. He
allowed four hits during his eight in
nings on the mound and with a little
luck would have earned a shutout.
The first Jopliu run, was scored in
the second on Monroe's single, Davis'
sacrifice and Lamb's hit which just
escaped Nye. The other run came
in the-third on a walk to Cochran,
Burg's sacrifice hiand an error by
Shaw. - -V-
Metz and Monroe of the opposition
were canned from the game by Umps
Bush for gfabbing. Metz was
bounced in the first inning before he
could get into the lineup and Monroe
in the eighth. Bush thought the Jop
Unites werei trying t,o show him up
so he decided td do a little showing up
himself. The hostilities between the
invading athletes and the umps
proved quite pleasing to the ans.1
Today Hutchinson comes for a
four-game scries.
Jcetown Boys Split

St. Jo.sph, At:g. 16. St. , Joseph

header today, the locals winning the
