Fighting Finish in Morning
After holding down the locals to
no-hit period for eight innings, Brown
ing eased up a little in the morning, and
a fighting finish brought in the only
run in the eleventh. Koestner was in
winning form, and the best San Fran
cisco could do was four hits, making
total of seven hits for both teams i'll
the game. 1t was a pitchers battle
pure and simple, with almost perfect
support. 1t was the one mistake of the
northerners that cost them the contest.
Orendorff hit a Texas Lacquer over
short and Koestner sacrificed him.
Daley bounced the ball to McArdle, who
failed to shoot the ball to third quickly
enough, and Orendorff weacheds shis base
when the sphere struck him on the
elbow. Goodwin squeezed in Orendorff
on a beautiful pinch play, hitting to
Zeider so stiffly that the runner had a
cinch to get home, and the San Fran
ciscan, seeing all hope gone tossed the
ball over toward center field.
Franzel Hosp started out in almost
record fashion when they opened up
before the big crowd in the afternoon.
He walked Mohler in the first, but
thereafter not a man reached first for
six innings, and with the Angels three
runs in the first and second it looked
like double-header victory. Daley was
walked for the Angels in the first ana
Goodwin was given the same verdict
BeaIl struck out and Daley and Goodwin
worked double steal. Howard walked
filling the bases, and Eastley, the Seals
pitcher, began to finger the ball nerv-
ously with his gloved hand. Smith
a a. T)plmaS
singled hot to center, scoring Goodwin,
Howard trotting over on the throw in.
Hosp's double, his safe journey to third
when Mohler dropped the throw to sec
ond, and Daley's long left field fly
brought over the Angels third score.
Mohler Starts Things
Mohler was the second man to reach
first for thesSeals, walking again in the
seventh Tenant flew out, and Mel
choir and Williams singled. With
Zeider's out there were two gone and
the bases filled, when Lewis hit an easy
grounder to Howard. The second base
man stood directly befoBe it as it came
down the field, hardly moving from his
tracks. He waited securely, and the
two teams started for the changes
marking the close of the inning, when
Howard allowed the ball to shoot
through his glove, Mohler and Williams
scoring while he chased the sphere
and, gathering it, looked around, SEEM
ingly in a daZe. OF course this set the
crowd on edge, and it seemed to take
the spirit out of the locals.
In the eighth, after two outs, Zeider
was hit by a pitched ball, and then
Mohler popped up an easy one toward
Howard The Angel again hardly
moved, and the sides were again pre-
pared to call it off when, secure in his
easy task, Howard became overcon-
fident and dropped the ball, Mohler be-
ing safe at first, Zeider got to third
on the play and Mohler brazenly stole
second. As Hosp was winding up IN
his slow mechanical fashion Zeidar,
Who had taken a big lead off third,
sprinted for the plate and beat the ball
to the pan. This tied the score and
pandemonium reigned. Tenant doubled
to center stiffly and Mohler came across
for what proved the winning score. For
an inning and a half the fans roared
themselves hoarse for a tie score and a
victory for the locals, but there was
Yaothipor dOipp The scores.
