In a game marked by superior an
around team work and heavy hlttins
on their part, San Francisco defeated
the Oaklanders yesterday afternoon at
Idora Park, Oakland, by the score u
9 to 5. The Seals came up strohs III
the first inning, hitting oscar dralai, IA
hard, until ,l,ey had all batted arounu'
and the tally sheet showed them nVe
points in the lead. That start was loo
much for the Commuters. Try as they
would during the remainder OF the
game they could do nothing. In the
last half of the fifth it looked as
though the Commuters might pun up
strong, when they tailed -FOUR runs,
but they soon fell back in the old
rut. A single run in the seventh ended
their scoring.
All in all, the game was very SLOW
one. taking two hours and hfteen min,
utes to play. Brick Devereaux delayed
the game fully five minutes in refusing
to leave the field when Umpire McDon-
aid put him off in the eighth inning
for calling him names. Brick yelled

walk to the initial sack. However,
Hit succeeded in shutting out the
Commuters without letting in any
more runs.
The Commuters shifted Constantine,

he made a good showing for young

figured well covering the initial sack.
Later Gates took Jevereaux's place.

the last of the seventh that brought
the supporters of the Seals to their
feet. He closed in on Van Haltren's s
