TACOMA 2, PORTLAND 8.
The Oregonians Batted Cross All Over
the Field and Won Easily.


TACOMA, July 3l.-[Special. l-McNabb
pitched shut-out ball today. He allowed
no bases on balls. and let only man get to
first without working hard for it. The ex-
eeption was Goodenough, and he was hit
bya pitched ball and was the first to score
for Tacoma. Tacoma's half dozen errors
were costly and not excusable. Aside
from McNabb's low throw to first, Port
lands play was clean. At times it was
brilliant. especially the double play in
which Stencil took part. Cross was steady
enough, but about everybody hit him reg
ularly. Patton's, Cross and Goodenough's
errors were rank, besides Cody had one of
MS periodical ratified streaks. AS it was,
Tacoma did well to prevent a shut-out.
Hitting the ball by pretty nearly every
body was the opening feature. Stencil
prevented Cartwright getting second on
his hit to the fence in the first by quick
throw to second. Later Stencil hit safe to
LETT, and Tebeau followed with a bounding
grounder aimed at second base. Patton
rushed up and took it, touching out
Stencil at the base and throwing out
leoeau at first. Another double play was
executed in the second inning by Mains,
nnassisted. Work had hit prettily, and
ration in trying to sacrifice, put the ball
squarely into Mains hands. and Work
was caught off. For Portland, George, the
hrst man up, put the ball over the back
renee Tor home run. Still another double
play came in the third inning when Port
iand was at bat. McNabb, with one out,
4. got irst on a missed third strike. Stencil
then drove the ball at Patton, who took it
near the ground and caught McNabb Off
