Los Angeles 7, San Francisco, 2
Another game for the Angels and two
home runs in one inning! Did you get
that last? Two homers in a single
spasm, and off Stats A4enley's delivery at
that.
Neither of those four sack wallops.
which were easily the features of the
game. were what could be called Clean
cut. The one perpetrated by Francis
Hosp, which came first In the seventh
round, cleared the palings on the bounce,
and Carlisle's offering which followed
was a freak of the first water. The ball
barely missed being foul along the first
base line, and it took the English so
well that 1t shot through an open gate at
the end of the right field bleachers.
But the fancy home runs weren't
needed by the Angels yesterday to turn
the trick and score another game. In
the first three innings they scored three
runs and the best the Boodlers could
connect with was single tally. Later
on the visitors increased this by one, but
at no stage of the game did they get
near the locals.
At that ,ne game was spectacular
enough to please the big crowd which
journeyed out to the Chutes to see the
teams perform. 1t was ladies' day. and
the fair rooters screeched for the home
team at the top of their voices. They
were needed, too for in some instances
Hosp had his foot on the guide rope and
almost went for an aerial tour.
After relieving Joy on the mound
Wednesday Henley came right back to
try to beat the locals, but he was not
in the best of trim and was sort of soft.
The eight hits collected off his delivery
netted seven taliies and at times 1t looked
as though Stats would have to be retired.
Hosp pitched better ball than is his
won't, and although he started off in
several innings with his control looking
like deuce spot the team behind the
San Diego busher helped him out and
star catches by Cravath and Carlisle did
much to hold the Boodlers down to seven
safe hits.
The Angels started to score early, and
in the first three innings piled up a total
of four tallies. These were made off
five safe clouts and the lead thus OBJ
tanned was never touched by the visitors.
In the first inning Bernard drew a pass
at the opening and was sent on to third,
when Carlisle smashed a two-sacker over
right field. Dillon and Cravath fell VIC
tins to the fly habit, but Bernie was
able to get home on the latter's long
drive.
More in Second
The second saw two more Angels com
ing home with the goods After Ellis had
famed Delmas doubled to left field, and
then Hap Hogan made the second out by
flying to Melchoir, zeider juggled Hosp's
grounder and while the batter was being
declared safe at first Delmas scored.
Berrard failed to see why Hosp should
die on the pinows, so he doubled to
right and gave the twirler chance to
cross the final rubber.
Dillon opened the third with a single to
left and went to second on Cravath's
sacrifice. Brashear singled him home, but
Kitty and Ellis were victims of double
play and died on the cushions.
Three hits in the second round netted
the visitors but one tally. With one
down, Street doubled to left, and when
Carlisle juggled Hen.ey's bingle he scored.
Piper followed with the third hit on a
single to cenler, but there was no chance
to score when the Angels got together
and played the game.
From the third to the seventh round
things were quiet, save for bit of fancy
fielding and bit of wilderness on hosp's
part But in the inning mentioned some
thing broke loose and after the Boodlers
had chalked up a tally the Angels came
through and posted three.
When the inning opened it looked kind

man up, Streib. Streets out sent the
rurner on "a bag and Henley's single put
Streib on third. Hidebrands effort was
taken care of by Delmas, who forced
Henley at second when the ball was
tossed to ,Dernard, but Streib managed
to get home on the play. Wheeler slap
ped a hot one at Hosp, but the twirier
was there to field 1t and caught George
before he reached first.
Things broke loose in earnest when lie
Angels came irto It. and the two home
runs registered scored trio of tallies.
Hogan, the first man up. was out via
Zeider and Wheeler and Hosp picked
out a neat one to drive into left field.
FIildebrand was playing in too close. and
the ball cleared the renee off the bounce.
F'rantz trotted around the bags while
the fans broke loose, and when Bernard
followed him with z neat single 1t looked
like curtains and the hook for Henley.
With Bernard at first Carlisle lined the
leather down toward Wheeler, but the
latter was unable to touch it. The bail
kept on going and disappeared through
about four inches of gate which had
been left open at the end of the right
field bleachers and Bernard and Carlisle
trotted home on the jog. The score:
