AFTERNOON GAME
Los Angeles I, Oakland 4.
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.

Another series for the Angels. By
trimming the Oakland bunch yester-
day in a double header, shutting them
out in the morning game and taking
the afternoon contest 7 to 4, the
Seraphs have won another series, and
by a big margin. Superior batting
took both contests, although the field
work surpassed anything which has
been seen in the Angel city for many
moons. The games marked the final
appearance of the Oaks in the south
this year.
Vernon was the scene of the morn
ing conflict, with Koestner working
for the locals. Although wild at times,
the Angel twirler was accorded such
brilliant support from every member
of the infield that the three scattered
hits which the Baysiders secured did
no damage.
With two singles and a walk to help
him, Beall scored the only run of the
game in the second inning. Although
both Thomas and Cameron swatted
out two baggers for Oakland Koest-
ner never wavered, and the remaining
batters went out in order
Tonneson Hit Hard
A good sized crowd witnessed the
matinee performance. While lacking
in brilliant plays, the steady ball
pitched by Tozer, coupled with good
support and hard hitting, brought
Bill Reidy's braves safely into camp.
Tonneson caused the Baysiders' down
fall. Wild pitching in the fourth
inning scored five runs for Los An
geles. giving Dillon's men safe lead.
Tonneson, seeing that it was impos-
sible to strike out the local batters,
started in to throw the ball at them
and managed to hit three before the
last man had been retired.
Beau lowered his batting average
n neg or two by striking out the first
time at hat and getting never safety
with his other two trips to the plate
Oakland led until the fourth inning,
when Tonneson and the balloon In the

work with a clean single. j. smith
followed his lead, and both were sate.
Delmas went out, but Fl. Smith was
hit by a pitched ball, filing the bases.
Tozer flew to deep center, allowing
Wheeler to score on the throW-in.

the game for the home team by lining

Smith Ross singled, scoring Wolfe,
Goodwin taking third on the play. Beal
was hit by Tonneson. again filling the
bases. Dank, the smallest pitcher of
the league, was sent in at this stage
of the game to relieve Tonneson, but
got away to a bad start. With the
bases full Dank walked the first play
or who faced him, forcing Goodwin over
the plate.
Dank Finds Stride
The little Oakland twirler showed
up to better advantage in the next
frame. retiring both H. Smith and
Wolfe via the strikeout route. When
the new Oakland artist stepped to the
plate in the next inning he was given
an enthusiastic reception, but failed
to connect with the horsehide.
In the seventh inning the winners
scored their last tally by punched
hits. Delmas and H. Smith singled and
were followed by Tozer, who lined an
other through the infeld, scoring the
Seraph shortstop. In the first half of
the eighth Oakland rallied, but was
unable to ring the bell after getting
two men on the stations. One lone
run was made by the Baysiders in the
ninth when Delmas allowed brace
of grounders to get between his legs.
