Cardinals Triumph Over Bewildered Truelight Girls

(By "Ball Fan")

Dusting off the last minute clinks in their ball-playing machines, baseball managers sent their hopefuls into final try-out tilts over the weekend as ball fans throughout the land eagerly awaited the opening toss to start another pennant chase along its winding way.

Hongkong Brewers' top-heavy favourites made a clean-cut training season sweep as they steam rollered across the spring tune-up session for their fourth straight victory, taking a big 10-1 game from the U.S.S. Asheville's "slip-slap" tars.
