Shortly after that pitching change was made Kiddey committed a throwing error on a pickoff attempt allowing a third run to score. The Indians added a 5th run after starting pitcher Pratt scored just after another Southern Local runner was caught in a rundown in between first & second base.
Pratt was the winning pitcher for the Southern Local Indians as he pitched 7 innings allowing 1 run on 3 hits, 3 walks & 6 strikeouts.
