juggled the sphere. In all probability
Sweeney could have beaten the throw

Smith, former third baseman Of the
Angels, came on next and was ac-

rousing swat in the back and went to
first. Moore trotted up with the avowed
intention of knocking the ball out of
the lot, but his hardy swing resulted
in weak bounder In front Of the plate

THE game was legally forfeited to
the Chicago club and 1 stand by the
action of the umpires to the finish.
1.-THE constitution of the National

PORTLAND TAKES
THE FIRST CAME

A new sort of a record was estab-
lished by the Portland team at Chutes
park yesterday afternoon, when they
shut out Mike Fishers citrus aggrega-
ton to 0. The record emanated from
the fact that two foreign ball mines
had never before contested in a league
game on the home grounds of Seraphic
diamond artists and consequently no
team had won game under such con-
ditions.
At that Fresno might have won If
anybody else but a young man by the
name of Califf had been out on the
slab for the Mud Hens. There was no
beating the assortment that Califf sent
across yesterday afternoon and the best
that Fishers brigade was able to ac-
complish resulted in two hits, one of
them a double sacker by Eastwood.
Charlie Doyle had the honor of secur-
ing the only other hit off the northern
twirler and he remainder of the bunch
contented themselves with lifting the
sphere into the air or rolling 1t easily
to the waiting infield, which for one
misplay by Moore afforded superb sup

After little fiddling in the center of
the ring, Neil waded in and shot a
hard left to the jaw, sending Bakers
head backward. but missed a hard wild
left swing. Harry came back strong
however and landed a hard right on
Bker's jaw. AS the men came to a
clinch Neil poked in a straight left,
causing the Baker boy to lay on his
shoulder both covered with blood. AS
the men came together Neil showed
in a low one. Burns reached out and

Weird Decision

Nothing sensational marked the open
ing game with the exception of a re-
markable decision of Bull Perrine's
which brought down the house. The
weird event occurred in the last half
of the second, after Delmas had gone
to first on four wide ones. Eastwood
was the next man up and bounced am
easy one to Califf. Lister at first drop
ped the ball as Dashwood lacked a
step of reaching first. To the amaze
ment of the entire Fresno team Bull
called Dashwood out.
The howl could have been heard a
mile off and the bleacheites Joined i'm
the general protestation. Perrine had
evidently been occupied in watching
Delmas journey to second and called
Eastwood out on the supposition that
Lister could not help corralling the ball.
Portland went after Fitzgerald like
big league stickers in the first inning
and F'itz was lucky that he crawled out
of the hole with one run scored against
him. McHale sent a grounder to Del
mas. which the third baseman in his
zeal tossed over first base, Mc-1ale

Round 16

Both jumped to the middle of the ring
and Baker landed a good left and
danced away from the bulldog rushes
of Neil. Neil followed up quickly and
landed two hard lefts on the Baker

tie attention to the hard swings and
jolts from Frankie's left. Baker
danced in and landed a straight left ON
Neils face. Neil landed a straight
right jolt on the jaw of the fastly tir-
ing Baker but missed a hard left
swing. Both exchanged lefts and came
to a clicnh as the gong tapped.
