Martins Make Bow in
Exhibition Game Here
Defeat Norfolk's
Tars By Score Of
2-1 Last Sunday
???
Too Much Pitching Makes
Dull Game in Field
For Fans
Going into action for the first
tune, the 1938 Martins registered a
two-to-one victory over the Norfolk
Tars in an exhibition game here
last Sunday afternoon, the event be-]
ing on the listless side.
Advanced pitching by Zak. Snow
Hill twirler of last year, and by
Raper, who came from the Cincin
nati camp to aid the Martins, cen
tered the activities for the most part
between themselves and the receiv
ers. However, the doings in the oth
er departments offered the five
hundred fans a glimpse at the not
yet-complete line-up of the Mar
tins. "Babe" Lunt, the youngster
from Palm Beach, showed up well
at short, and Louie Grahovac played
a good game at third. Paynter look
ed fine behind the bat, and other
home boys hold promise, the fans
say.
A chance in the personnel was
effected at the last minute, and
three visitors, Raper, Cincinnati
owned. and McConnell, the fellow in
left field, and Green on first base,
were here for the one appearance
from the Durham camp. Xhomas
Tice and George Peel, home boys,
did not find their way into the
line-up, but they are working with
the squad
Grahovac. all the way from
Thornton, Illinois, to hold down the
third corner, opened the Martins'
inning with a single, one of the two
made off Zak and Hruska during
the afternoon. Foynler got the oth
er hit in the sixth and batted in1
the two runs for the locals.
Corbitt, one time with the Mar
tins, had an off day and helped the
Martins to victory, while Raper wasj
taming his teammates at bat. The
Cincinnati man allowed the Tars
four hits in six innings. Jefferson,
working the last three frames, al
lowed only two safeties and struck
out five.
