YORK WINNER IN
FIRST HOME GAME
Pitchers Go Had When White
Roses Start Bombardment
in Fourth Inning
Harrisburg's State League squad got
into the Philadelphia Athletics' stride
yesterday, losing the opening game in
this city to Lew Rltter's York team;
score. 12 to 5. George Cockill's pitch
ing staff went to the bad. "Buck"
Ramsey, the iron man, has not struck
his gait and was unable to save the
day for the locals .
Steward, a youngster, had little
from the start. His teammates took
care of him until the fourth inning.
when the blow-up came. York had
lucky breaks in hitting, driving out
the ball for extra counts when bases
were tilled. Harrisburg hit the ball,
tot. but pinch swatters were not in
evidence, and fourteen men were left
oil bases.
Both 'lVains S|nt'(h
Loth teams , showed speed and
ability. Team work was lacking at
limes ami I lie outfielders showed poor
judgment in covering their territory
for lorig drives. "Lefty" Wens had
Harrisburg guessing for two innings,
lie was bumped hard, but had better
fielding back of him.
■ There was much in the opening
game that was disappointing to local
fans, but they realized that it was lie
first game at home and it was a lb tie
too early for kicks. will be
the attraction to-.lay and to-morrow
and next week Harrisburg takes the
i oad for a series of games. This was
ladies' day and at this afternoon's
gaine the fair sex was very much in
evidence. The score of yesterday fol
