Big LeaguerS


When the eighth inRing rolled around
az Recreation park yesterday the local
fans, who had yelled necessarily up to
this time. Were downcast. as it looked
as If the Seals Were about 10 swallow
their second dose Of shut out powders.
The Sox were out in front with two
-ns 10 their credit and playing fault
ass ball 1t seemed that nothing out
side or a crew OF Wagners or Cobbs
could bat in a run. but the unexpected
happened and the Seals showed a flash
ming team=courage
II all happened in the eighth Sutor.
VINO pitched an excellent game for five
INNINGS. turned the Job over TO Frank
smith - the sixth The chunky slab
artist sTas Whizzing them over with
H6h peer and during the sixth and
seventh ames nothing that resembled
run Was recorded. He was putting
them over straight. but with a lot Of
speed and this assortment seemed good
enough 70 retire the Seals.
Browning. who made his first appear
ance OF the season. took 10 the nring
In the seventh and he started of the
rally IN the eighth. He raped out
beautiful hit To- center that caused the
Ians 10 wake up somewhat smith then
pitched himself into a hole by allowing
Aonler 10 get TO hrsL with two on
bases and none down the fans took
second lease of life and started their
vocal organs working again Curtis
aid down a beautiful sacrifice and
browning moved along 10 thlrc ana
Mohler pulled up ut second.
B0DEE TO THE RESCUE
Bodie. who had caused sorrow in the
SoN camp last sunday afternoon by mt
ing one out of the lot at an oppOrtune
time and breaking up a game that was
practically won was called upon 20 do
the big thing. He was there like
major. He drove sizzler TO center field
and Browning ambleo home Tenant
sent a long fly into deep right and the
captain outf0oted the throw home by
close margin.
Not content with having the score
TIED, the Seals were bent on showing
the big leaguers up Smith was wing
ing them over with increased velocity,
but ms added power could not stop
Longs men, They were after him and
they put over another run in the same
frame. Bodie. who had done the noble
act a few minutes before, was painfully
hurt pilferinE third. He Wrenched his
ankle and knee and was carried from
the field TO the clubhouse. Williams
took third station to run for Bodie and
he came home q moment later when
Joe Berger. whose work on the
mound for the Seals during the latter
part Of last season did not win him
any bouquets from the fans, showed
the multitude yesterday that besides
his looks he has something else. The
big blonde delivered an assortment of
curves for six innings that could not
be recognized as his offerings on pre-
AllAS OCCASIONS lie AaQ the Dis
lea aguers utterly buffalOed while on the
mound. and If he continues to deal
out this line of stuff he viii make
himself right in short time Three
hits and one run was the limit Of his
generosity. The run was a present.
for If Mohier had showed a little more
speed in recovering Williams throw,
which lie muffed. Altizer would have
been caught trying 10 steal home
MOHLER BLAMED FOR ONE
The Sox got a run in the fourth
frame and another in the eighth. They
sls rted OF the fourth with a hit TO
right by Altizer. The leggy first base
man did hotfoot 10 second and Will
lams threw to catch the runner at
the middle station, but Mohler. who
received the throw. allowed the sphere
70 bounce OF his shin. Instead Of
going after the bah Mohler tempo
rarily went 10 sleep and Altizer tore
home from second
The Sox got 10 Browning for a
couple Of bingles in the eighth, which
developed into a run. Tannehill opened
up proceedings with nice single and
Captain Bill Sullivan, after bouncing
off q few fouls, found one to his liking,
which he biffed out TO center for a
two sacker. Tannehill pulled UP at
third and later came in on Hahn's long
fy TO left field.
The score.
