“It was a dandy catch, Pepper,” said Joe Nelson. “I never saw a better.”
“That was a fine rap of Emerald,” said Pepper. “That set the ball a-rolling for us.”
Dan Baxter felt thoroughly disgusted at the result and so did Reff Ritter and the others of the Medals.
“We might have won the game if you hadn’t gone to pieces,” grumbled Ritter to the bully.
“Huh!” answered Baxter. “I hadn’t any support,” and then he hurried for the Hall and out of sight.
“Baxter certainly pitched well for eight innings,” said Jack. “One must give him credit.”
