SWATS OUT A HOME RUN
THAT ENABLES THE LOCAL
TEAM TO BEAT THE INDIANS
TACOMA GETS SIX IN ONE
INNING.
Standing.

The Tigers again jumped on
Mr.. Killilay yesterday in the open
ing of the battle at Athletic park
and beat their record of the day
before, making six runs in an in
Z ming instead of five. And the six
. were good.
1t looked shaky in the fifth in
ming, however, for Tacoma. Annis
could not get the balls over the
plate and he passed Burnett and
Spencer, after Clynes had got a
hit at the opening of the inning.
He had three balls and no strikes
on Killilay when he was pulled
OF the slab and Bert Hall went
in. Hal could do nothing but
walk Killilay with that handicap
: to start with, but, after Brinker
had got hit and scored two men,
giving the enemy three runs, Hall
settled down to business and it
was all off with the Indians.
Annis gets credit for winning
the game anyway and he deserved
1t. too.
He broke up the enemy In the
second inning. Killilay started
trouble for himself by pumping
Kippert and Broadbent in the
ribs. Then Downie got a hit.
Eastwood went out on foul fly
hut, with the bases crowded, Annls
stepped up and swatted a ball
over the fielders to the left field
fence for home run and put four
tallies on the board.
Coleman came along with two
Ibagger and Stevens hit him home.
Stevens stole second and Hurley
brought him around with a
healthy poke to right which went
through Weed to the fence, while
Hurley scampered to third.
Bill tried to squeeze home and
got mixed on the signals and was
put .out or Tacoma would have
had another run, but there was
half a dozen up and that was
plenty. Score: r II Il
