The 13th game in this series breaks a tie of 12 games with Wilson and now is tied with the 13 games played with Hoisington. Hays and the Cardinals last played in 1980…but the series dates back to 1929 when the Indians won 6-0. The Cardinals won in 1930…but the two didn’t play again until 1958 and 1959 with Hoisington winning both allowing Hays to score just seven points in each game. The series took a break until 1964 when Hoisington won again…but that was their last in the series. Hays won the next nine against Hoisington…in games played in 1965 through 1969…and games in 1976-77 and 1980.
