Conkey has the leather!" This was true, but ere Conkey could start to run Fred Garrison brought him to earth and the ball rolled out into the field. Sam and a Pornell halfback made a rush for it. "My ball!" yelled the Pornellite, who was twenty pounds heavier than the little captain. "Not today!" retorted Sam, and snatched it from under his very feet.
"One strike!" said the umpire. "I want a high ball!" growled the batter. Again the ball was delivered. "Two strikes!" Then the ball came in again. "Three strikes! Batter out!" And Tom got a rousing cheer for striking out the Pornellite. But the two men were still on first and third, with one more man to put out. "Take care!" whispered Larry, and the basemen all moved up closer.
Before the Pornellite could recover from his astonishment, Sam was pelting up the field with all the nimbleness of his agile legs. "Hurrah for Sam Rover!" "Great Caesar! see him leg it! They can't catch him!" "There he goes over the line!" "A touchdown! The game is a tie!" "Quick, fellows!" cried Sam. "Only five more minutes, remember. Who is to kick?" It was a player named Larcom.
After the march each team was allowed quarter of an hour for practicing. The Pornellites came out first and tumbled over the leather in lively fashion. The Putnamites soon followed. They may be all right, but they haven't the weight," said one of the rivals. And this appeared true, for each Pornellite, man for man, was at least five pounds heavier than his opponent.
