One of the season’s largest
crowds Wednesday night saw the
Nome team bow in defeat to the
Hammons 5 to 14, and the Alas
kans trip to Commercials 10 to 8.
The second game provided the
upset of the evening when d:s
heartened Alaskan fans facing a
probable defeat for their team
were suddenly revived by a tre
mendous sixth-inning rally
which retired Miller from the
pitching box, scored 8 runs, and
gave the Alaskans a two run
lead. Tight defensive work for
the remaining innings handcufif
i ed the Commercials and the
game was over.
The Commercials and Ham
mons now have a clear-cut tie
for the lead but the standing of
Nome is dependent upon the re
sults of Monday night’s play
off of the disputed game. The A1
askans registered their first win
Wednesday night. Should they
win Monday’s game, they will be
j tied for second place with Nome.
The time is Monday night at 7
| o’clock, no admission will be
charged and fans are welcome.
