The Trojans won a track match from the Twins at Trojan Park yesterday afternoon. The final couny was Tyler 19, Texarkana 5.
Kitchen's men cracked out twenty safe blows in the game while the Twins got ten off Porter's delivery.
Najo was the shining light of the game, getting a single, double, triple and a home run out of five times up. He also stole second, third and home base in one inning.
The Trojans moved over to Mt. Pleasent today for a "crucial" three day series with Trammel's "Kitties".
Upon the outcome of this series depends the chance for Tyler's Pennant winning or losing.
