Seattle team this afternoon. Until today
Tacoma had won only one game out of
eight played with Seattle. Today it won
its second game. making two out Of nine.
After the first inning, when Tacoma
netted six runs, no quarter was shown the
under dog. The half dozen runs acted like
taste of blood to wolf. and the slaughter
WAS kept up until the eighth inning, when
Tacoma had twenty-eight runs to Seattle's
FIVE. Besides being an Off day for Seattle
and heavy batting day for Tacoma, no
explanation of the result is necessary.
The stampede started with Seattle's
poor backing given Cunning at the very
start Besides. Dunning was not over eff
fective to start with and this, with his
support, opened the way with half
dozen runs. This gave Tacoma conf
dence, which Increased with each inning,
ever Tacoma batter getting a hit except
Lauer who had two sacrifices, however.
Goodenough, with seven times at bat, had
seven safe hits, and the others helped
along the run-getting proportionately.

ting list. AS an example of what
Tacoma's team can do under favorable
circumstances the record Of how it made
its twenty-eight runs ten of which were
earned. is interesting. Two of Seattle's
five runs were earned. Although the
