Two thousand people saw the Los An
geles club lose the only game to Oak.
land OF the series, yesterday afternoon.
The game was the poorest one of the
series, but was very fair one, never
thslsss. There was plenty of batting,
and errors were not as scarce as they
might have been, but there was plenty
OF good playing and the contest was ex-
citing until the last ball was pitched.
The Angels deserve scoring for their
poor backing up. There was no one
behind Hulen when he was knocked
down. Stafford should also be instruct
ed to run everything out. He quit yes
terday on swat to the infield which
was fumbled.
Easy O'Neill pitched for Oakland and
Stafford was on deck for the home
team. Wright failed to reach the initial
on drive to Whitehead. Tredway was
hit by the pitcher and went to second
on Glenalvin's hearty carpet drive to
centerfield. Glen was forced out at
second on Pops hits Pop started to
20 down to second and Wilsen threw to
head him of, in the meantime Tredway
was sailing for the home plate which he
made on great slide, being aided by
O'Neill's poor throw to the plate.
The Colonels started in hostilities
without delay. O'Brien banged out q
three-bagger to the right garden. New
man threw to Hulen but the third base
man was run into by the base runner
and knocked down, while the ball went
sailing in the direction of the kinder
garten, thus enabling O'Brien to tally.
Hutchinson struck out. Carroll was
next and covered himself with glory by
sending the ball over the left field fence
for q home run. It was great hit and
Carroll was given rally by the crowd.
The run getting did not stop here.
Norris O'Neill made base hit. Wilson
followed suit and both tailed on
Turner's hit.
-Four runs in the first was agood start.
The Angels got in three hits In the sec.
ond, SLING the bases, but noruns re-
suited.
The Colonels sailed into Stafford
again ard made two more in the second.
Easy O'Neill started in with two-bag-
ger. O'Brien made base hit to center
field. O'Neill scored on foolish play
on the part of the local teamand Carroll
drove O'Brien in. The Angels were out
in one, two, three, order and likewise
the Colonels in the third venture.
Los Angeles did nothing in the fourth,
but the Colonels gathered in another in
their half. Easy O'Neill led off with
base hit. O'Brien reached first on
bunted ball, Pop hesitating 80 long that
he lost the chance of getting out either
man. Hutchinson made the initial on
bunt. Carroll few out to Wright,
O'Neill scoring on the throw. Norris
sphere to Rogers, whocaptured O'Brien
at the plate. The Angels made another
pretty play. O'Neill started to go down
to second in order to give Hutchinson a
chance to steal home. Rogers threw
down to Glen, who sent the sphere back
as If ehot from cannon, and the Oak
land THIRD baseman was captured at the
home plate. The score at the end of
this innings was to in favor of the
visitors. The Angels then took hand
in the game. They fgot in one in the
fifth. Wright made q ethree-bagger and
scored on Tredway's base hit.
The COlonels came very near scoring
in this half. Wilson reached first on
Hasamaear's error. Turner hit out in
the sight garden which Newman could
not quite get. Wilson was captured
off second in lightning style by
Glenalven. Mannasau made a base
hit and Whitehead sent the sphere
to the center garden. Turner did
not come home on the hit, and as
Whitehead went to second, one little
Colonel was showed out in the cold
world, Stafford running him down,
while the, crowd laughed at his predica-
ment. Stafford struck out O'Neill, thus
shutting of any runs.
The Angels made two in their next
essay. Hasamaear and Newman each
made q hit and Kid Hnlen scored both
men with his drive to the right garden.
The Angels afterwards filled the bases,
but they failed to make any more runs.
The Cotonels,failed to get around, and u
double play shut out all chances of a
run in the seventh of the Angels. The
Colonels were, out in one, two, three or
der.
In the eighth it looked as if the An
gels would pass their adversaries. With
two out, Wright, Tredway and Glenal-
vim filed the bases and two scored on
Turner's mnf of McCauley'sHy Itwas
a bad error at critical time. Hasa
maear failed to send Glen home. The
Colonels did nothing in the eighth, and
the ninth began with the score z to 6
against Los Angeles. The locals were
noteequal to the tack and the Colonels
won the contest. The score:
