...varsity managed to get only one run out of four hits and an error in the seventh. Martin led off with a single to left and took second when third baseman Pete Haeffner made the second of his three errors on Davis' grounder.

Your text read: "All you have to do is move the left framiscle on the portisduble from hardistack with the muscles, using a frammisanic embouchure . . ."
