Another Game.
Some Errors and Good Deal of
Slugging.
The Local Team Only One Game In
tho Rear in the Race for the
PeBnant-Sporting
Notes.


For years Rube Levy. the good ma
tured left fielder OF the San Francisco
club, has been the idol Of the kinder
garten at San Francisco. Rube in the
past few weeks has had presentiment
that he was cut out for pitcher. 1t is
strange that the San Franciscan never
became aware Of his pitching ability
until this year. nI.:::5es n::5s in a burst Of
confidence whispered to Manager Harris
that he would like show to 60 in the
box. Rube was in earnest and per-
sisted about the matter. He was told
to practice and that he would be given a
chance to show himself when he got to
Los Angeles.
Accordingly when Umpire McDermott
called the game Rube took up his posi-
tion in the box with as much trepida-
ton as seminary graduate. When
Glenalvin heard that Levy was going in
the box he also resolved to make a
change. He twisted around the batting
order and made several other changes.
Glenalvin put in Newman to catch, and
played Jimmy Stafford in the right gar
den. Levy is south paw, and in con-
sequence all the right-handed batters in
the team were moved up peg.
Levy just lasted one consecutive in
nings and half. 1t took just that long
to explode the new phenomenon.
There was a very fair attendance at
tho rvo Tho oto nd %od
very animated appearance, as the
wealth and beauty Of Los Angeles was
out in force. ..t
In the first venture OF the locals four
runs were scored. Stafford failed to
reach Sweeny's territory. Hasamaear
got his base on balls. Wright took his
base on being struck by pitched ball.
Newman flied out to an outfelder.
Hasamaear scored on Tredway's hit to
right6eld, Wright landing up at third.
Tredway meandered down to second and
Pop McCauley Tailed, both on hit
to centerfeld. Glenalvin reached first
on Sweeney's error, McCauley scoring.
The visitors came up and made the
circuit twice in their first essay. Midget
Sweeney led off with a two.bagger.
Levy struck out. Reitz flew out to Has
amaear. With two out Spies came up
and knocked the sphere over the LETT
field fence for home run.
The Angels got in three more in the
second. Hulen beat out hard swat
which the pitcher failed to handle. An
attempt was made to catch the Angel
off first. 1t was an extravagant piece OF
business. as the ball landed up under
the bleachers and Hulen made the cir
cult. Stafford got his base on balls and
stole second. Hasamaear was caught
out. Wright got his base on balls.
Newman sent the sphere in spot just
between center and right field, two men
scoring before the ball reached safe
hands.
Hoffman was put in the box in the
middle of the innings, and Levy relieved
Brittan in the left field. The visitors
we're out in one, two, three order.
With the score eeven to three in favor
of Los Angeles at the end of the second
it looked like walkover for Los An
geles, but baseball is a mighty uncer-
tain pastime, as the next few innings
proved.
Both teams failed to make the circuit
in the third. Los Angeles made zero
in the fourth. The feature of the inning
was grand catch by Spies of high
foul. He ran clean into the grand stand,
but pulled down the ball.. The visitors
got in one. P. Sweeney struck out.
Hanley got in base hit, and Peek
Sharp followed with two-bagger. Han
ley scored on Peoples sacrifice hit to
Glenalvin.
Los Angeles got in tally in the fifth.
Tredway led off with base hit. Old
Pop reached fret on Hanley's excusable
muff Of q long fly. Tredway very in
judiciously tried to steal third and was
captured. McCauley scored on Glen
alvin's timely drive to the center field.
The carnage began in the visitors
half. Little Danny Sweeney struck out.
Levy made lucky hit over second and
Reitz lined the sphere out to the fence
Pete Sweeney sent one in Tredway's
direction, filing the bases. With two
out, the fun began. Hanley sent
little swat straight at the second bag.
It came too slow for either Hasamaear
or Glen to get it to first, but Hasamaear
apparently captured Sweeney at second.
The umpire called him safe and the
crowd showed its disapprobation in a
most unmistakable manner. One man
Tailed on the play, however, and two
more crossed the plate on Hasamaear's
muff of Sharp's fly ball. 1.-TWO more
scored on Peoples hit to left field.
This made the game eight each and
the contest then began anew.
Neither team scored in the sixth or
seventh.
The fusillade began over again in the
eighth. After two Angels had been sent
to the seclusion of the bench Hasa
maear came out and made
base hit. Wright followed the good
example and two Angels without wings
scored on Newman's beauty hit in
the centre garden. Newman tailed on
Tredway's drive to centre field and the
latter came home on Pops smash in the
same territory. The Angels did some
tall smashing in this innings. In the
ninth Roach led off with hit and wae
sacrificed around to third on Hassa-
maer's timely smash. The game ended
in favor of Los Angeles by score of Is
to 8. The score:
