VALDEZ WINS
Local Team Wins First Contest By 11
to 4 for Baseball Championship
of Sound.
Valdez 11, Cordova 4
Them is the main statistics of the
ball game yesterday between Valdez
and Cordova. It was a good game in
view of the. fact that neither team
had the benefit of much practice.
The Cordova boys were particularly
handicapped because they have no
ball ground at home and theft spring
training had consisted of tossing the
ball a little in the streets.
The game was not marked by many
thrills, the exciting spells being three
innings in each of which four runs
were scored. Cordova started the ex
citement by running up four in the
second inning and then Valdez came
back at them by marking off that
number in the fourth and again in
the sixth.
It was anybody’s game until the
sixth stanza. In the first inning Cor-^
dova was blanked and Valdez look
ed dangerous by making three hits,
one of them a double’by the Day
light Kid. Sharp fielding by the Cor
dova bunch retired the side with one
run.
In the second round Cordova start
ed trouble and Valdez helped them.
An unscientific combination of two

hits, twi errors; a base on balls and
a batter hit by a pitched ball slip
ped four Cordova sprinters all the
way around the towpath and the
scoreboard said 4 to 1. Valdez could
n’t change it in their half of the
session.
One Queer Mess.
The third spasm was a queer one.
McClaire gave two bases on balls and
hit a batter but only five Cordova
men batte.d because with the bases
loaded on battery miscues Leopold
picked a long fly from O’Neil’s war
club and doubled Seaton by a quick
throw to first base. Valdez went out
one, two, three.
Cordova was stopped easily in the
fourth and then the big noise started.
Valdez made four hits, the Daylight
Kid getting another double, while a
base on balls and a fielding error
helped four runners to swing around
the circle and put Valde* one to the
good.
In the fifth Cordova got nothing,
McClaire striking out three men,
though this stunt was mixed with a
base hit and a fielding error by Val
dez. On the Valdez end of the -act
Jimmy Hill opened the engagement1
with his third consecutive double but
McClaire flew out to O’Neil, Then
McEchren was put out at first on an
infield grounder and Hill in a fit of
emotional insanity* tried to -run home
after easily - reaching thirdi* Perry*
slammed the ball to third and Harrja
