Is Still Rafting Around IN
Third Place.

There were all kinds Of episode IN the
game yesterday afternoon, which wound up
with @ painful accident to Jack Horner
which will probably lay the popular little
Oakland twirler up for some time. In re-
covering a hot line ball which he partly
blocked with one hand Horner fell and
wrenched his knee-the one be Injured in
practice before the season opened. This
happened In the tenth inning with tied
score. Horner was carried TO the club
house, and German, who had retired at the
end of the first inning, was put in TO finish
the game.
1t did not take Lester P. long to wind up
that interesting performance. A couple of
bases on balls were sufficient for that pur-
pose crowding in the winning run with one
hand out. Score s to Z; and it was by long
odds the best contest seen here in long
time.

from the drive, into viii Horner was
loaded and driven to the clubhouse. Lester
had preceded him to that structure some
time previous and donned his store clothes,

TREDwAY's FLORAL TRIBUTE.
The game was full of sensational Incl
dents from beginning to end. and the
hilarity Of the occasion was greatly in
creased by the humorous remarks and
funny antics of Comedian Tredway. On
his second appearance al bat an unknown
admiTer presented the Angel with a huge
bouquet of cut flowers as a reward for max
Ing tive hits IN Saturdays game. Mr.. Tired
way was greatly pleased with this present
aud reciprocated by doing most Of the
coaching for his side in an unusually loud
tone OF voice, besides jumping stiff-legged
In the air when the spirit moved him.
But the banner feature of the whole per-
formance was Whtehead'S triple play. in
which Terrible Tom played minor part.
1t was the second feat Of the kind ever per-
formed on the grounds and modest Milton
actually blushed at the vocfeTOus nature of
the applause which greeted his effort. The
play happened in the sixth inning with the
bases full, no one out and TredHay at bat.
Then Milton Whitehead got action on him.
self and the side was retired so quickly
that half the crowd could notsee how it was
done. Even the Angels were daZed and did
not fully recover for several minutes.
WHERE WHITEHEAD sHoNE.
Tredwsy sent a low line fly about two
feet from the ground half way between
short and third. Whitehead made quick
side leap. caught the ball in his right hand
ran over, touched third and Stafford was
out. This made two. and while Milton was
deciding what TO do next some body yelled
Throw to first" Milton looked across
and saw Dad McCauley making a wild
rush to rejoin that bag ahead of the ball,
but Whitehead sent 1t across like shot
This was only part of Whitehead's good
work, as he tore off three doubles and made
some stops and throws that were simply
out of sight
Oakland took the lead In the first, scoring
two runs. Manuasau started with q base
on balls, made pretty steal. took third Oh

work and tied tie score in their naH on

Cauley sent one TO Turner which he folded
nicely, but German muffed ths throw and

was only for little while. The belters

and couple Of sacrifices. In the next

placed the Angels two in the lead. Homer
was being hit freely, but bungles were re-
sDonslole Tor most OF the rms. Balsz had
good control and Oakland swatted him
hard at times, but mostly at the wrong
time. Ihey braced up in the ninth and
tled the score on couple Of bunges and
Manassau's double. Wilson nearly broke
bis neck while trying to deposit his tally,
but fortunately escaped with whole bones
He was on second when Horner sent a Nv
