A HOG GONE MAD.
A Salisbury Team Bumped Against a
NnRff-Tbe Game One-Mlded Jf ed.
dlngrton II art Salisbury Boys Old
Well.
Several hundred of our citizens
attended the ball game at the Forest
Hill Park Friday afternoon, between
a team from Salisbury and the Con
cord boys. The game was altogether
one-sided, bat interesting through
out. From the beginning Concord's
crack battery, Weddington and
Reed, began their excellent work
and held the Salisbury boys in check
until the beginning of the ninth
inning, when Weddington had to
retire from the box on account of a
hurt on the wrist. His work was
fine and that of Reed was equally as
good. They were supported by an
excellent team on the in and out
field. :
Salisbury's battery did some hard
work, but the home team was too
expert at batting. John Brown was
the star player on the Salisbury
team, and held the others in good
spirits until the last. Robertson,
the tall center fielder, made the only
double play during the game.
The official score by innings is as
fallows :
Salisbury, 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 3-3
Concord, 3 0 3 4 61 0 5 22
It is the general opinion of all,
including the Salisbury team itself,
that if Weddington had not been,
compelled to retire from the box,
the result would bare been an ejrtir
ehufamt. Weddington- and? his
catcher, Reed, fully sustained their
reputation in Friday's game.
The baseball boys say they are
anxious to play, and will make, it
interesting for any, team thatj will
come here, but when they do play it
is only natural that they want
strong team to work against.
Mr. Y C Caldwell umpired the
gane and his decisions gave satisi
faction to both sides.
The attendance was large and the
interest in the game by the citizens
waa great encouragement to the
boys. ; ,
