The Game between Badin and Atlanta
The Sluggers went out against one of
the best teams that has come to Badin,
on Monday, the fourteenth. The Vet
erans, knowing the battle they had be
fore them, went out upon the diamond
full of assurance that they would win
the victory. Many spectators witnessed
the game, both white and colored, prob
ably the largest crowd of the season.
Alonzo Simmons, who is indeed an
artist in the box, delivered the ball to
the catcher, for certainly the Atlanta
boys failed to see it. Simmons can baf
fle the best of batters with his wonder
ful skill of hand and his excellent head
work.
Pearlie Lloyd, who came to us as a
third baseman, caught the ball from
Simmons at this game. The speed with
which he delivered the pill to second
base caused it to sing that little JAZZ,
“There Ain’t Gwine Be No Stealin’
Done.”
Furman Dawkins, better known as
'White Rabbit, played first base in this
game. White Rabbit has his old strength
this year. He pitched a ball in the game
between Concord and Badin which at
all times sang the Snakey Blues, and
resulted in a shut out for Concord.
Will Lovejoy, better known as Green,
played commendable ball on second, and
' also Green did not fail to make the wil
low come in contact with the pill every
t me he faced the pitcher.
Michaem, better known as Connie,
played his usual position in short, and
in the genesis of the game he met the
grapevine curl of Atlanta’s pitcher,
which resulted in the spectators losing
sight of the pill, which landed at the
top of the left field fence.
Rob Weldon played with accuracy, and
his wonderful skill with the stick in the
fourth inning, which caused two scores
to come in for Badin, made the sideline
fans lose heart, and stop betting on the
“Buzzards” fi’om the Empire State, and
turn their bets to the Tukoes of Turpen
tine, or Tarheelia.
Curtis Tolbert, better known as Kid
Monday, played left field, and in the
sixth inning made himself noticed by
getting an impossible one, which bade
fair to be a parked ball.
Will Threadgill, who should be called
“Crip,” played center field with the same
ease he plays the Jo-GO Blues on the
piano. Crip startled the “Buzzards”
with his power to use the slat either
left or right handed.
Will Reid, who should be known as
“Home-Run Bill,” covered every foot of
ground between the right field fence and
the sign advei’tising The Main Phar
macy.* Home-Run Bill never strikes out,
generally hits, and often places the pill
on the outside of the fence.
Badin made nine scores in this game,
while the boys from the Empire State
barely eased in one.
The game between High Point and
Badin which was played in High Point
on last Saturday, resulted in Badin los
ing to High Point by a score of seven
to three.
The game between Rockingham and
Badin, on Monday-, the sixth, was the
most interesting of the season. The
score was thi'ee and two in favor of
Rockingham all thi'ough the game from
the third inning until the ninth, when
the Badin boys made two more scores
by an error of the first baseman on
Rockingham’s team. The game went'’*^1
4 and 3 in favor of Badin. j
On Tuesday, Badin again |
Rockingham, and beat them by a
of 15 and 3. Simmons pitched the
game; White Rabbit pitched the seco^J
Wednesday and Thursday, the
teenth and seventeenth, the SluS'
went against the strongest team if’
State, and by some very costly
they lost two games to the Pond J
on the Winston League baseball di^ii^^''
We are glad, however, to have the
solation that we have beaten the (
Giants this year.
