The morning call., 1892-01-13
WON BY PORTLAND.
They Play a SOul.SOOthins Game
With Frisco.
Nothing Whatever Occurred TO Mar the
Peaceful Serenity of the Exhibition.
Some Scenes and Incidents.

have faded away save for subdued sn iff1e
now and then-a sort of reminiscent sob as
it were wrung from heart surcharged
with grief and fondest hopes forever
crushed.
few of the more demonstrative have re-
turned to the reservation with no scalps
worth mentioning, and those who remained
have left off dancing and are once again
engaged in the peaceful pursuit of tallies
and fOrgetfuneSS.
In viewing the smoothly flowing action
of the game yesterday afternoon one could
scarcely reaiZ9 that no later than last Sun
day the two great organizations clashed to-
gether with deafening thud, the shock OF
which was felt as far south as San Jose,
and that the CLASSIC suburbs Of East Port
land Oregon the home of the celebrated
Brothers Parrot - Tom and Jiggs-were
shaken to their very foundation. But all
that is passed and gone. The veT-ceaSeless
round OF time has filed In the gap with new
combinations, new games and the ground
plans and specifications Tor new KICKS
should they be required
II would indeed be hard to imagine more
delightfully."- sonl-soothing exhibition than
the first of the tiye-gAme series betwe en-
Portland and Frisco. There was even less
discussion than at the annual election OF
delegates to the conference at Pacific Grove.
Not breath of discord arose TO ruffte the
placid bosoms OF the young men, and There
was not a single kick Of sufficient volume TO
disturb the htful slumber of homeless cat.
They even lacked the aggressive spirit to
turn and look at King Sheridan as he mo-
notOnousiy sang out balls and strikes ac-
cOrding to the dictates Of his professional
eye.
HANK ON THE LOOKOUT.
The absence of these familiar features
was what made the game 80 refreshing. AS
soon as a man was put out. instead OF being
Tod gIf g.
t0rted visag0 of young person with his
fists iabbed into his hips ana his head
cooked to one side while he saSSed the UNI
pre while, you Immediately saw another
putout administered to the next man, and
so on.
1t only took them one hour and twenty
FIVE minutes TO play nine bright and spark
ling innings Of this description, in which
the Frisco men were repulsed by score OF
3 too
After lapse of several moons Hank Har-
ris is back III the business to play a brief
engagement. In fact Hank has been in
terested all the time, but now that his own
employees are involved his interest naturally
takes Oh a deeper hue As early as o'clock
Hank had his head sticking out Of the main
entrance to the park and was gazing anxI-
Ously IN the direction OF the street-car ter
mini, presumably to see II II was going 10 be
a nice day for tile game.
1t was an exceptionally fine afternoon
not an overly brisk day for people.
With the exception Of Jumbo Cartwright
and q. Washington Peoples the home team
was presented intact; also in those bottle
green uniforms worn In tie early part OF
last season.
While lying around empty those uniforms
have slrlveled and shruuk and continued to
shrink like a baby'S undeTshirt, and during
this same period Harris Young men have all
rounded out more or less, which state OF
affairs gives some of the garments about all
they can do and hold their jobs.
SOME TOLERABLY TIGHT FITS.
Nick Smiths rotund form has taken on
the appctjzing contour Of a gingerbread
man; little Dan Sweeney resembles a SIN all
boy painted green, and jim Mcdonald, VINO
played second BASE looked as II his clothes
might be choking him in several places.
Jim's trousers could not nave elung to him
mOIe affrctiOnately had they been pasted
on, and his wardrobe a whole fitted him
ike the bag on boiled pudding Tom
Power, who played first, was gotten up in
style that would enable him TO leave the bag
at moments notice and do an aerial hori-
zOntal bar act like McVey's brother in the
circus.
Phil Knell in the box filed out the cast OF
the Frisco team. On the other side Joe
CantIili0n, whose dog mas not been reported
lost OF late, played second base, vice Cap
tain GleDalvlD, vamoSod Handsome DO0leV
covered first base in his own iuimliable
manner, and Winfield Scott Camp was pas
ured in right field, where he alternately
cropped the bright green heritage and caught
fly-balls.
The game opened with arush, and finished
the same way Tanning and kneil both
pitched good ball, and the 6e Id played an
almost iaultleSS game, there being hut one
error on side, and these were probably due
10 geut.
Knell,s southpaw shoots and twists puz-
cd q IN n nj hoy
got but three hits. all in the seventh inning.
Fanniug's delivery was perforated in SIX
places, but these punctures were not close
enough together to do much damage. In
walking about in the damp weather Of the
past few weeks the batting eyes of the
Frisco men have doubtless rusted fast, or
partly so, I'D their sockets and they did not
hit the ball like they used 10 when the
Colonel had pitchers in the fray.
RUDE AND Ills WEAKNESS.
Joe CantlliCn of Portland, but who has
never been in Portland, led OFF with base
on balls in the first and wiggled himself
around the circuit OF a sacrifice, passed
ball and wild pitch. which went sailing by
Pop SWEET like some of the mallard ducks
he didn't get on his recent hunting trip.
No more runs appeared until the seventh
for either side.
With two out and man on third in the
sixth for Frisco Rube Levy had a chance to
win renOwD, but Tanning, who had heard
about RUDE. sailed three balls in close under
his left OXteTpit and Reuben baZed away,
but caught the wind every time.
In the next Power led off and made
base hit with the bunion on his right foot.
Mcdonald sacrificed and SWEET scored him
with a single. In the next Peck Sharp got
a base and scored on Smiths double to
center. Billy Lange took advantage OF the
opportunity afforded in turning for this
double to fall down
j. Peck Sharp Of Ottumwa played short,
Peck had but two chances and they both
came together. One was a c0rker from
Shea's bat for which the agile Mr.. Sharp
made rapid dive and plucked out of the
sod with one hand. Mcdonald had but one
chance at second, but he tagged three
would-be baSe-steqers.
Portland won the game in the seventh
mainly through the efforts OF Tom PARROTS
brother Jiggs and a three Dagger he
touched off at an opportune time. Work
and Lange hit singles, Shea and DOoley
went out but Jiggs chucked one down to
the clubhouse for three sacks.
Thursday afternoon the same teams play
again at Haight street with tho same make.
