The following players represented Spencerport High on the court, during the season of 1913-14: Lester Welch, captain and center, James Lapp, right forward, Ben Everett, left forward, Leo Goodridge, right guard, Willis Dimock and Harold Dunn, left guard. The High School students are just as proud of their baseball team as of their basketball team. Baseball started its season against W'est High. This game was lost by a I2-4 score. The next two games were victories for the nine, both games being played with Holley, but the third game was lost to Albion. On May I5 we encountered our old enemy, Cathedral High, and fought a sixteen inning game with them, in which we lost out, 6-5. In the ninth inning our boys came to bat with the score 5-2 against them. Lapp, first man up, n1ade a hit and was advanced by a hunt, which Welch laid down the first base line. Dunn hit safe and put Lapp on third, while he him- self trotted down to second, True struck out. Thus, with two men Ollt and two on bases, Goodridge, who hits like an old leaguer, drove out a two-bagger wl1iel1 sent Lapp and Dunn across the pan. The next man to face the Cathedral pitcher was our little right fielder, Peachie, who drove in the tieing run. Taylor fanned, thus ending the -inning with the score tied. The remaining innings saw some classical baseball, played by both teams. The pitchers allowed only a few hits. In the first of the sixteenth, Cathedral put a run across, by means of a wild throw over first. Our nine came to bat determined to tic the score again, but all three men who faced the Cathedral pitcher were easy outs, and the game was over. This is an undisputed record for a baseball game among high school teams, and Spencerport and Cathedral can easily hold it, for no sixteen inning game has ever been recorded in this section of New York outside of- the leagues. The Spencerport team possesses the following members: Infielders: Welch, Dimock, Everett, Dunn. Outfielders: Allen, Taylor, Goodridge, Sackett and True. Batter Sweeney and La . F. L. W. y: .
