Sibyl 1920

BASEBALL, 1919 Considering the fact that Otterhein liad ])laced baseljall in the discard for two seasons, the showing made by our 1919 aggregation was sufficiently creditalde to insure the success­ ful continuance of the sport in the si)ring of 1920, Although lacking somewhat in the fundamentals of the game, the men out for the team displayed at the very beginning of the season a willingness to learn and a spirit that could not be discouraged by defeat. As the season wore on the majority of the men showed a marked improvement in all departments of the game. The hitting at all times was hard, and effective enough to win, but ragged fielding due to the lack of ex])erience of the players turned many of the a])])arent victories into defeat. Wildness and ineffectiveness on the part of the two pitchers did not add to Otterhein’s chances of winning at the begin­ ning of the season. Later on, however, they steadied themselves until in the last game Dano l)itched a fine game for a win over Antioch to the tune of 8-3.
