In fact, during the* season JuBt ended, the teams against Vicks burg never felt sate until the third out was made in the ninth round. The Vicksburg players hit the ball hard at all times and all pitchers looked alike to the pennant winners. The best pitchers who opposed Vicks burg were often sent to the bench, and Vicksburg proved themselves In fielding, oddly enough, Yazooj City leads. However, the Zoos proved themselves the poorest batters in tlle league. The Vicksburg team made the second best fielding average in the league. One thing about Vicksburg was that her players altvays went out to win games regardless of averages. was the comment Billy Earle made in commenting on Randall's great work, Randall has speed and fair control and when he is just right his curves are wonderful. Besides he is a splendid hatter, and his slamming alone is enough, almost, to give him a place on any good team. For pitchers who worked the full year. Sparks, also of Vicksburg, finish ed in third place. Sparks is a good steady going pitcher, who may be counted on usually to deliver the goods though brilliance is most of the time lacking. Three such star boxmen gave Vicks burg a great advantage in the pen nant race and were big factors in the winning of the rag. The individual records of the pitch ers follows : Records of Pitchers. W.
