Cause Defeat in the
Second
Portland 2, Angels First Game
Portland S. ANGELS Second Game


teral in the Angels camp yesterday,
but their assortment of horsehlde was
manufactured to order, evidently. for
the especial use and benefit OF the
webfooted brigade from Portland.
The crippled and muchly patched up
Angelic team played no championship
ball yesterday at any stage of the game,
and IL the last three games are to De
taken as an indication of what will
happen in the post-season series with
Tacoma for the flag
II Rusty Hall had been given n
chance at short the promenade of the
twirling brigade would have been COM
plete and as 1t was Dolly" Gray,
Nagle, Baum and Tozer assisted and
did other stunts for the edlfication of
the big Sunday crowd.
When the Seraphs trotted out on the
diamond it was evident that Manager
Morley nhd put some new patches on
his crazyquilt aggregation with the idea
of smothering the mudhens The day
was chilly, however, even for the mud
hens and when the Incidents were over
the Portlanders snugly wrapped In the
Angel bed cover, tucking themselves in
with two scores of 2 to and to 2.
Nagle cavorted around center and
Dolly" Gray was endeavoring to look
unconcerned in left field. Baum was
the center piece of the new quilt and
Artie Ross was trying to shorten n
big chest protector that reached to his
ankles.
1t was discovered that Dillon was in
the right place and Bernard with a
new haircut fidgeted around second.
Broadbent, the Rivera comet, chewed
his nails at short and kitty Brashear
stood near third.
Cap Dillon and Morley held a consul
tation before the game and Dolly came
near missing an opportunity to shine in
the left garden. 1t was decided, how
that, that Morley should stay and in
duce the cornet player to render a
new air for the Sunday fans and Gray
took the field.
Umpire Davis ran before the stands
and said: Ladies and gentlemen"
His remark was evidently mistaken
for something else and the crowd would
not stand for the Grafton. "Slats" threw
up his hands and the game was on.
Baum went out to the box and started
an excellent assortment that had the
webfooters guessing. 1t was shut-ou t
ball, but Mr.. Broadbent interfered with
the proceedings and allowed the ball to
sizzle through his legs in the eighth
inning. 1t was very embarrassing for
the new short man, but the fact that
the burrs of the bush league were
still hanging in his hair spoiled the
game. When it came to critical mo-
ment he fell down and allowed the
ball to get away.
The feature of the first game was
the fielding of Nage in Bernard's place
and four outs with one assist show
the twirlers aptitude for utility work
Essick tossed for Portland and the
one run of the Angels came as the
result of Sweeney's wild throw.
Ralph Tozer came out for the sec
ond game and did sorry work. He had
every Portland batter ducking wild in
shoots and the majority of the hitters
preferred to stand out of the box and
take a chance at walking.
The first inning of the second game
put things beyond the Seraphs reach.
Atz received choice one in the ribs
and ambled to first with a wry face.
Van Buren, sacrificed him to second.
Atz stole third and Tozer planted en-
other wild one to McHale's anatomy.
McHae promptly stole second and
Mitchell walked. Schlaf1y singled,
scoring Atz and McHale. Mitchell going
to third. Schlafly started for second
and Ross throw to Bernard was bad,
allowing McHale to score. Mitchell
went to second on the play and stole
third in sensa tional style. He was
caught between bases, Brashear and
Bernard trying to run him down.
Bernie tried to do the stunt alone and
sprinted after the thieving one Mitchell
dropped in his tracks and, before Ber-
nard could recover himself, was off foU
second. Brashear got the ball again
and threw it over the base. Mitchell
turned and reached the difficult corner
amid tumult of the crowd
The tale, as the dope man saw it:
First Game
LOS ANGELES.
