His Own Misplays
Beavers 8, Angels 2

Clean hitting for the most part, with
the bingles opportunely discovered by
the Beavers, enabled Mercedes ag-
gregation of ball tossers to take game
from the Angels yesterday. There was
an element of luck in favor of the
Beavers, but 1t was no lucky victory
at that, as the runs really were earned.
and for once the visitors outplayed and
outhit the champs. Graney allowed
the champs only five hits, while the
Beavers touched UP Hosp for double
that number, so it looked like their
victory may be classed as an earned
one.
The Angels started off in front in
the first inning, scoring once on an
error, wild pitch and nary a hit.
Oakes was safe on Johnson's high
throw to first. Ellis sacrificed him to
second and he scored on a wild pitch
a few second later. Graney became an
cry and famed Cap. Dillon and Ber-
