Witfa tfae score 7 to 2 against tbam wfaen they went to bat in the nintfa in« ning at Commercial Field Satorday. the Freeport High School ball tossera started a rally which did not end ontil seven men had crossed tbe plate and Commercial was defeated. The bome team tried hard to tie up the game in their balf but tbe best they coold do was to score one mn. The' game ended 9-8.
Such heavy hitting as was done by the Freeport boys, when defeat seemed almost certain, was never before seen at tbe Albany Avenue field and tfae whirlwind finish furnished by tbem fairly dazed the Commercial players. Seven hits, four of them doubles, was the extent of the bombardment of Mc- Mafaon's shoots.
Up to tbe ninth the visitors appeared to be outclassed as far as the run get¬ ting went, but they showed that "nev¬ er die" spirit whfch resulted in vic¬ tory. Murray was the first man up and he started the fireworks with a single. Pettit worked McMahon for a pass and Edwards flied out to Becker. Meaney then doubled to center and Murray scored, while Pettit reached third. Bedell was an easy victim, swinging at three fast ones.
With two out. Baker,   who had   not
connected   safely   up to   this   period,
smashed the first ball   pitched  to   left
for   a   double.      Meaney   and   Pettit
scored.    Randall   kept up the   hitting
by knocking the sphere over second for
a single, while Baker scored and Nolan
followed   with a double,    putting   his
predecessor on thiVd.    The two  scored
' on Clark's single and on the  throw   in
the runner reached second.    He tallied
I a moment later when   Murray,   up for
¦the second   time in the inning,   hit for
' two   bases.     Pettit   then   ended   the
\ agony by fanning.
Commercial tried hard to overtake the lead when they faced Bedell for the last time. Murphy sent an easy roller to the box and waa retired at first and Becker popped in front of the ' plate, Pettit pulling down the ball. : Williams then brought the spectators , to their feet when his hit barely missed going over the right field fence, he gel- ting two bases.
I Pennington, who arrived in the ! eighth inning, was rushed in to bat for i Mahler, and he worked Bedell for a : pass. Spellman did the same thing , and the bases were full. Bedell was very nervous and hit Hillary in the hip J with the sphere, forcing in Williams. I Coach Carey called on Eason to do the ! pinch act, batting for Logue. but three I hard swings was the result of the ex- i periment. Then, the Freeport rooter* I and players ^ent wild. { Neither Freeport or Commercial had I their regular teams in the game, the i visitors being without two of the first team outfflelders and their star catcher , failed to put in an appearance. Stem ! and Pennington, the strength of the Commercial team, did not report for duty, nor did Eason, a fielder. The last mentioned player and Pennington ' arrived near the close of the game. j At the start it looked as though Commercial would have an easy time \ with the Long Islanders. Two runs ! were scored by the home team in the firat inning, another in the third and I in the fourth four more crossed the ' plate. From then on Bedell pitched I good ball, keeping the hits scattered I and tightening up after his teammates ' made errors. Nine miscues were cred- I ited to the visitors and it was because of the errors that Commercial piled up the lead which they held up to the ninth. The home team played an er¬ rorless game, Sheridan, Hillary and Spelman fielding brilliantly.
The defeat of yesterday came as a severe shock to the Commercial aggre¬ gation, for it was only Friday that Poly Prep took the measure of the Al¬ bany Avenue team and at the same time won the Greater New York inter- Bcholattic championship. The score:
