(>!?? Mun Swain Starts First
Rally With Home Run
In the Seventh
Although Ole Man Rod Swain's
hurling was not up to par'in yester
day's game, his stickwork played a
big part in the Martins' second vic
tory of the current season. The con
test with Greenville, which William
ston won 12-7. was marked by the
29 hits, eight of which were for ex
tra bases
The Greenies started off the scor
ing with a run in the third, two in
the fourth and then Harry Jenkins
homered with a mate on in the sev
enth to run the count up to 5-0 in
their favor.
And yesterday, the "lucky sev
enth" was just that as Stotler went
to first on an error and Pitcher
Swain hit for four bases to start the
ball rolling. When the side was re
tired, the Martins had six runs, made
from four hits, three errors and a
walk.
Greenville tied the count m their
half of the eighth, but once more the
batting powerful the locals took a
hand in the affair and six hits, two
stolen bases, a sflcifira nnrf an errur
netted them six more scores to clinch
the ball game. The Greenies scored
once in the ninth.
Claude Grimm, the Martins' ver
satile secondhaseman. featured at
the"*plate, collecting a triple, a dou
ble and two singles. Thompson and
Keller were next with three for five,
while Swain followed with a home
run and single for four attempts.
For Greenville, Swamp Norwood
was best at the plate with three for
four, Jenkins and Watson being next
-with three for five;
Red Swain, who walked -five and
Tanned four, went the route for the
locals, while Manager Wilson used
three pitchers against the Martins.
