Brown, Sylva's fireball pitcher,*
pitched the American Legion to
victory over a strong Hayesville
Hiawassee all-star team July 4th
2-0. Brown retired the first 16 bat
ters to face him without giving a
first base ticket. He was touched
for four safeties in the remaining
innings but kept them well scat
tered. The only trouble he had in
the game came in the 6th inning
when Hayesville-Hiawassee load
ed the bases with no outs. Brown
struck out the next batter and the
following batter hit ihto a double
play. Sylva then-scored their two
runs in the last half of the 6th to
put the game on ice.
This game drew the largest
crowd of spectators in many years.
Sylva will open the last- half
schedule July 12 on the Mark Wat
son field at 3:00 o'clock.
