The local lads got away to a one run lead in the first inning. Stoneham could not hold its scant lead, however, despite sensational outhelding by Joey Lundre- gan and Vinny Hughes. by Shorty Dearborn. His twisting curves had the Vv ' ilmingtoii batters buf- faloed. But the breaks went against him and the game slipped from Stone- i ham’s grasp. Wilmington emerged from the conflict on the long end of a 3 to 2 score. Stoneham made a desperate ef- fort to tie up the game in the ninth but a beautiful peg by Kidder nailed the ambitious runner at the plate. very spectacular. Joey Lundregan’s one hand stab of a line drive gave Stoneham rooters a chance to cheer. Stoneham 9 — Punchard 8 Stoneham ten innings to defeat Pun- chard by the score of 9 to 8.
