Cooleemee Baseball Team Beats Gibson Mill, 9 to 3, Aug. 13, 1925

Cooleemee Beats Gibson Mill Outfit

Cooleemee, Aug. 14—With a wonderful band of pitching seldom seen anywhere, Miley of the Cooleemee team tamed the Gibson Mill team from Concord on the home grounds yesterday by the score of 9 to 3. Except for errors of Gilbert, Click and Smith, the visitors would not have scored.

For 40 innings Pitcher Miley has not allowed an earned run. He has allowed eight hits per game. Four runs have been scored on him due to errors of his team mates. The Gibson Mill team is composed of stars from Carolina, State, Lenoir, and other colleges, while the Cooleemee team is made up of all home boys, but are starts on some of the colleges. Not a hired man is on our club.
