The seraphs lost the last game they
will play on their native heath for a
month by an Overwhelming score to
the Athenian host yesterday afternoon.
Ham" 1berg produced the slants for
the opposition and while his benders
were bingled for the same number of
hits that brought eight of the Greeks
over the pan, the visitors were for
tunate in being pulled out Of several
tight places by the puerile and pitiful
base running of the Morleyites.
dolly" Gray was on the mound for
Dillon's commando but as the score
would indicate was not particularly eff
fective against the laddies who sport
the Oakland uniform. Gray's produce
tions were slashed around the enclos-
ure in a disastrous manner in the
opening inning and that rangy young
man was unable to recover from the
shock during the remainder of the af-
ternoon, his condition being constantly
vers of the enemy.
Hostilities began in the first round,
Van Haltren leading off with jab
which put him on the sacks Kruger
did likewise and Moskiman filled the
circuit by scraping bunt to Gray
which that worthy passed to third in
ar abortive effort to cut off Van Hal
tren. Streib then expired on a rap to
Ross but Van Haltren clattered over
the pan. Kelly slipped along another
infield single and cleared Kruger off
the pillows.
Francks then passed up pop fly to
Dillon but that gentleman dropped 1t
purposely and Bobby Eager who divid-
et, the onerous duties of umpire with
Oscar Graham was handed a knotty
question. After dropping the ball Dill
lon put the sphere on both Kelly and
Francks on the first bag Eager de-
cided that Kelly was legally forced out
of the running. While Dillon was dal-
lying with the ball, however, Moski-
man concluded his journey and made
1t three for the northerners.
In the Seraphics' half of the first
Bernard singled but was later run off
the sacks. Brasher reached out
another one horse pass and scored on
Smiths double to left Smith was OBJ
liberated at the plate on Dillon's
bounce to Streib.
Oakland and Los Angeles both pro-
duced another completed amble in the
second. For the Commuters Byrnes
singled and was advanced a notch on
Iberg's sacrifice. Van Haltren skied
and Byrnes went to third and scored
when Ross fozzled Kruger's drive.
With two down the Seraphs brought
their second amble over in this period
on Spies double to center and Gray's
single, which puff Spies on third. Gray
cut for second and on Byrnes' high
pass Spies scored.
The Greeks brought two more over
in the fifth. Moskiman was walked
and scored on Streib's double. Streib
went to third on Kelly's out and scored
or, Francks single. walk also gave
the Angels one in the fifth. Bernard
was ticketed, went to third on Brash-
ears single and came over on Smiths
rip to left
The sixth and seventh periods were
quiet but in the eighth the northern
burghers welded the big billet and
scored the last two runs of the game.
Francks singled to center and was
urged along a notch on Devereaux's
sacrifice. Byrnes scraped to Smith and
or the wild pass to Dillon Francks
scored, Byrnes going to third. Iberg
famed but Van Haltren dropped the
sphere in left and Byrnes clattere1
over for the Athenians' eighth AMI
last. The score:
