Portland 5, Los Angeles 4

Portland 5, Los Angeles q
| In the scrappiest game that has beer
recorded at the Chutes this season tht
locals lost another to the Mudder:
| yesterday, and those who adorned the
bleachers and stands had more fol
their money than on any day since
Portland has been here.
In the course of the big dolngs Cal
Dillon and Charlie Atherton were botf
! thrown out of the game by Bool Per
rine and Dillon was also touched for
little out his next pay envelope. Inc
local leader was put out in the hftr
inning, when Bool decided that Carson
was safe at first on Nagle's assist OF
the batter's bunt. Dillon could not see
| it that way and in the ensuing argu-
ment was told to pull his freight.
Atherton's getaway was little more
sensational, for he heaved his bat at
the umpire to start the stunt. Bool
called three strikes on the Portlander
and Atherton thought Perrine was
making mistake, hence the club
When Bool ordered him to leave the
field Charlie argued the matter for
about five minutes, but finally decided
to meander on his way.
Up to the time that Dillon was fired
out the Angels and Portland had fought
two all at the end of the sixth spasm.
In the next round, when Atherton broke
into the black list, Portland caught the
Angels playing bush ball and chased
across two runs. Another was added
to this bunch in the eighth and the
Angels sent one more across in each
the eighth and ninth.
Bush Hartman, whom Berry had a
chance to sign a few weeks ago, was
l. = ~ TNit ri 1n6 n
good ball At the end of the sixth in
ming, when Portland was two runs to
the good, McCredie decided to take
no chances and relieved the youngster
from further duties, putting Kinsella
on the slab instead.
Walter Nagle went through the whole
game for the Angels but 1T was one
of the Judges off days and he failed
to do much. In four different innings
he was connected with for pair of
hits, and on three of these occasions
one run was recorded. In the other
one, the sixth, it meant a pair for
Portland, but at that the Judge was
not altogether to blame. Nagle had on
his battling clothes and walloped the
leather with a vengeance.
Angels Score Early
The days doings started early for
man was swung on for a single, which
was stuck in after a first on error and
a sacrifice. Bernard the first man up,
reached the initial pillow on Carson's
error. Ellis, the next to bat. was also
safe on Carson's misplay, and Bra
shear was down when he tried to bunt
the third strike. Cravath lined out one
of his high ones, which McCredie took
care of, and Smith came to the rescue
Lee ~ to1, pnt
nard. Ellis died on the corner sack
when Dillon flew to right.
In the fourth round the Mudders
gathered unto thenc-elves a run which
tied the score, and did it as follows:
Bassey singled to left and stole sec
ond. Mott famed and Donahue's out
sent Bassey on peg, from where he
was brought in on Mercedes single
to left.
The fifth round saw another tally
added on each side. Portland had the
first half of the act and Moore led off
with a double to right field Carson
bunted to Nagle. who tried to get him
at first, but without success. Dillon
protested Perrine's decision and the
umpire Immediately chased Cap to the
club house.
Cravath was brought from right to
fill in at first, Eager went out to the
garden in Cavvie's place and the game
proceeded. Schimpff made good with a
long fly to Bernard and the throw in
was too late to keep Moore from scor
ing.
In their half the locals scored when
Nagle doubled, stole third after Ber-
nard and Ellis had famed and came
home on a double steal which he and
Cravath worked. Cavvie owed his life
on the bags to four wide ones.
Portland broke loose again in the
sixth inning and two more runs were
recorded. With one down Donahue drew
a pass and McCredie was safe at first
when Brashear dropped Nagle's assist
of the Portlander's bunt, which was
meant to stop Donahue at second
Atherton came up and after Bool had
called three strikes on him heaved the
big stick at the indicator handler, the
result being that Charlie had to HE
himself away.
This did not break up the show, how
ever, for Moore came to the rescue with
a bingle to left which scored Donahue,
and Carson followed Immediately with
den which gave McCredie chance to
cross the rubber Carson being caught
while trying to do the same.
Another went through on both sides
in the eighth and in the final period
the locals went out after Kinsella, but
could not quite reach the mark. Nagle
came through with another long hit, a
triple to center, and was scored when
Ellis singled, but that's all there was
to it. Score:
