Virginia Episcopal School's dia- monders found their batting eye after five innings and blasted Miller School of Charlottesville 14-7.
t h e
Sox Sibley, who gave up four runs in the first inning, settled down to limit the home team to only three
tallies over the remaining six innings -two of them unearned.
Actually the Bishops tallied 21 runs in the massacre, but the last seven did not count as the game was called be- fore the inning was over by mutual agreement.
Several times during the early stages of the game YES had men in scoring position, but was unable to push them across.
The game was highlighted by the strong hitting of the Bishops and the top-notch hurling of Sibley, who in the second and sixth frames retired six Miller batters in succession, via the strikeout method.
