WARRIORS WASTED THEIR CHANCES IN GOING DOWN 4-3 TO CAA
Says “SNOOPER”
The Warriors wasted their chances yesterday. Potentially, one of the finest hitting teams in the Senior "A" League, the Warriors displayed the explosive qualities but they did not have the leadership and their sup porters were disappointed when they throw away their game against Mak Kwong's Chinese Athletic Association by 4-3 at King's Park.
It could have been a Warriors' victory. It could have been but for the three costly fumbles by pitcher Joey Franco whose main problem sprang from his slow. ness in picking up a bunt. Alfredo Oliveira, a regular Warriors' centre fielder, was misplaced at first and he was charged with two errors while the sixth error committed by shortstop Johnny Pereira.
