Devils,
13-
Tar Heels
Beat Duke
First Time
by Buddy Carrier
The vaunted Duke Blue Devils
had one of their rare off days yes
terday, and Carolina's baseballers
made the most of every opportu
nity as they took a 13-9 victory
over the Southern division con
ference leaders on Emerson Field.
The Tar Heels were outhit by
the visitors, 14-10, but they capi
talized on seven Duke errors and
the wildness of the four Blue
Devil pitchers in capturing the
win. Curveballer Chal Port went
all the way on the mound for the
Tar Heels, and managed to. pre
vent the Duke batting power
from exploding for a big inning,
although hewas in trouble a good
deal of the way.
Two Hits Apiece
Skeet Hesmer and Ben Smith
each collected two hits in four
tries to lead the victors at the
plate, while little Benny Cava
liere had two for four for the
Blue Devils. Every man in the
Tar Heels lineup hit safely at least
once, except shortstop Fred Dale,
who pulled a muscle in his throw
ing arm and was forced to re
tire in the fifth inning, and Harry
Lloyd, his replacement.
I
The game started off with a
bang in the top half of the first
inning, when the visitors scored
three times on a walk, an error,
a single, and a tremendous two
run homer by leftfielder Red
Smith. Smith's blow cleared the
right field fence about 400 feet
from home plate.
Carolina got one of these runs
back in their half of the inning,
and added three more in the sec
ond, but the Devils held on to the
lead with a pair of tallies in their
second turn at bat. The winners
went ahead by ; seven to six in
the fourth, however, and were
never headed. "
Biglnning
The Tar Heels' big-inning was
the sixth, when they, scored .five
game-clinching - markers. Nine
men batted in this frame, with the
runs being scored on a total of
three hits and three errors. Ben
Smith led off with a single, and
went to second on Connie- Grav-
itte's sacrifice. Dick Wiess walked,
then went to third on an error
by third sacker Bill Donivan, on
Bill Reeves' grounder, Smith
scoring. Port poked a single into
left, scoring Wiess, and Reeves
came in on Hesmer's one bagger
to the same spot. After Lloyd
fouled out, Port crossed the plate
on a bobble of Mark Herring's
grounder. The last run of the inn
ing was scored when Herring and
Hesmer pulled off a slick double
steal. The lucky thirteenth tally
came in the eight on triples by
Gravitte and Reeves.
