SEALS KNOCK JIMMY OUT OF
THE BOX
HEAVY SLUGGING WINS IN SIXTH
INNING
Baum Replaces WhaIen After Leaders
Forge to Front-Each Team Uses
Two Pitchers in Opening
of Series

SAN FRANCISCO July 27.-Kid
Mothers leaders batted Jimmy Whalen
all over the lot in the opening game
of the series today, scoring ten of their
fourteen hits off the Whale" netting
the six runs which won the contest
in the first six innings. When the
Seals chased themselves tired around
the bases, Graham withdrew Whalen
and sent Spider Baum, the star half
back pitcher of the Coast league, in
the box for the Senators. Baum was
in fair form, and although four hits
were secured he managed to hold the
locals down without another run.
Two base hits by four of the Senat-
ors and two of the Seals figured in the
results, but despite the longer hitting
of the Sacramento batters, they were
shy of quality. San Francisco also
used two pitchers, Willis beginning the
game and being relieved by Griffin,
when he grew tired. Charley Irwin,
formerly captain of the Seals, collab-
GRATED with Jimmy Toman in a dou-
BILE umpire matinee, and will act all
the week. The score:

w THIN the next two weeks the
w fate of the Coast league, as far
as the pennant race is con-
cerned, will probably be settled. Should
the Seals keep up their winning stride
and take each series by such majority
as they have done in the last six weeks,
there will be no heading off the Mohler
aggregation. The San Francisco team
has not only experienced remarkable
baseball luck this season, but they
have developed one of the fastest and
surest infields ever trained in the Coast
league. 1t is doubtful IL Mothers base
men could be improved on. The kid
has shown himself an organizer and
leader of rare ability, and his men play
with that machine-like snap and pre-
cision that remind the spectator OF
carefully drilled army corps executing
its maneuvers on parade. Should the
Angels prove victorious over their OPP
ponents in the next week by decisive
game scores, and should Portland win
out all along the line, the finish may
see an exciting race between the three
teams for the first position. But it will
have to be a close, hot fight from now
on if the second and third teams catch
up to within striking distance of Dam
ny Longs sprinters. To the fans the
two weeks will be momentous; to the
teams they may prove decisive.

Cleveland comes through with a chal-

Yet it is such confidence that places
man to the front. Cleveland is a
rugged little chap, despite his gaunt
frame, and is as clever as they make
them. He gives away weight In almost
all his battles, and has made a good
record so far, showing speed, science
and whole ring full of gameness.

ANGELS PREPARE
FOR LONG FIGHT
CHAMPIONS RETURN; WILL GO
AFTER PENNANT
TEN WEEKS AT HOME MAY BRING
CHANGE
Majority of Remaining Games Are
Scheduled at Chutes Park-5erry
Is Confident Worst Stretch
of Road Is Passed
BY A. E. DUNNING

Frank Dillon's champions, somewhat
sheepish over the poor showing of the
past week against the Beavers, but still
imbued with confidence in their ulti-
mate victory, will this morning set foot
in Los Angeles again, and today will
charge on the forces Of the Nernonites,
determined to start a squirt that shall
continue until they win back their lost
laurels and take rightful place near
the head of the column marching PEN
nantward. After two weeks of hard
luck, and it must be admitted a little
"off-color" playing, the sons of the
Angel city are ready to enter a strenu-
Gus campaign. Ten of the fourteen
weeks remaining in the schedule will
find the Angels at home. With the
backing of their constituents, a long
stretch of work ahead on their familiar
home grounds, and their genial leader
to cheer them onward, the Angels are
entering a stern chase in an optimistic
spirit. From now on there will be no
Ioafing among the pennant wearers. 1t
must be tip toe baseball If they expect
to win for the jump from third place
to the top is long one.
Berry Is Confident
Henry Berry has announced that he
will appear on the field in uniform
several times within the next few
weeks, in order to pull his men along
No more confident chieftain ever held
faith in his men than does the stocky
little Seraph. Though the fans who
believe that the Angels will yet climb
to the top despite recent reverses have
dwindled down to corporaps guard, it
would be impossible to bring such
view from the local magnate. Berry is
sure his men will for the third success
i've year annex the coast honOrs he
insists that sooner or later the Seals
will take a slump.
A brief review of the baseball situa-
ton shows that the Angels have been
sliding for nearly a month. At the
beginning Of the season they held the
spotlight position for a few weeks,
were then displaced by the San Fran
cisco bunch, and now have dropped
into third place. Hard luck has at
tended them more than any other team
in the league. They are at present
crippled by the disability of about three
pitchers. Their available working staff
of twirlers is composed of Hosp, Bris-
walter and Tozer. Koestner has been
I'd up with a bad arm, but it is be-
.4eved he will be back in the job again
this week Maggie had also been some
what off form, having hardly recovered
from the strain of that terrific nine
teen Inning game at San Francisco
Thorsen is not in winning form. Dillon
has been playing off color at first base,
and every hitter on the team has suf-
fered a slump.
