Los Angeles, 2; Portland, I

Accorded perfect support kitty
Brashear came away from the Ange
box yesterday afternoon a victor ovei
Judge Mercedes hired men who were
unable to solve the blond third base
mans curves to degree warranting
t'eir taking the game.
Kitty. while not the Whole show
had a part in every act and not only
tossed over a very tantalizng assort-
ment but also felded his ,osition as
though he had been slab artist since
first donning a uniform.
When Jud Smith played with the
Angel team his great ambition was to
steal third base. 1t is recorded that
Smith performed the feat at one time
after several seasons of experiment.
Carlisle's chief aim i'm life after yes
terday will probably be to remain on
third once he has arrived there. Twice
the left fielder annexed third and
twice Carson with a quick snap
caught him off the ag.
Umpire Mahaffey did not bask al
together in the sunlight of content, as
his decisions on balls and strikes re-
ceived more or less censure. Memory
of several fines imposed during the
nJ one went a step too far.
Another amateur maze his initial
a. ,arance with the Seraphs yester-
day when Moore of Moran team
held down third His first attempt
was not bad.
Gochnauer was back at short while
Curtis Bernard cavorted in center
again. Gochnauer is suffering with. a
very sore foot and appeared to be
working under difficulties.
Cravath saved the game for Los
Angeles. or at least pre- ented a tie
score. when he completed double
play by hauling down Sweeney's long
fly to left and then catching carson
at home as the latter endeavored TO
score from third base.
Sweeney scored Portland's only run
in the third after the Portland short
stop had been given a base on balls.
MeHale sacrificed him and Sweeney
stole third. Gum came to bat and
Sweeney started toward the plate.
Brashcar tossed the ball across easily,
thinking to catch him.
Gum, however, spoiled calculations
by slamming hot one through Goch-
nauer as Sweeney drew near. Los An
geles "a the knot in the SAM inning.
.,mmy Toman shot ce one to
left but was forced at second by Eager.
Moore SlaSneQ not Olle W lISiI Sliu'
Bobby hot-footed in. Moore endeav-
0 d to stretch lis do lie to three
sacker and was caught by relayed
throw via the notwithstanding
route.
Big doings occurred in the fifth,
when the winning run was 0red.
Dillon planted a safe one to center
Carlisle bunted and reached first as
Smith and Schimpff danced a horn
pipe around the ball. Toman bunted
TO Califf and the latter threw wild
to third, Dillon scoring, Carlisle reach
ing third and Toman second. Eyer
flew to center. With Moore at bat
Carlisle wandered too far from the
difficult corner and Carson threw him
out.
Angel hitters lost a chanc3 to score
again in the seventh because of slow
ness on tie bases. Dillon cent q high
one to McHale and latter allowed
it to pop out Of is hands. Dillon
came near being called out for having
stopped and missed an opportunity of
reaching second because of his slow
ness, Carlisle's attempt at sacrifice
forced Dillon at second. Schimpff
threw low to Carson and Carlisle
reached econd as the ball went to
the stands.
Toman singled to center. With Eyer
at the bat Carlisle again was caught
asleep by Carson.
The score:
