There were Just two features in yes
terday's Seals-AngelS argument which
were outstanding. Both of them were
unfavorable to the southern team. The
Seals found their batting eye with
startling suddenness, and pounded the
usually steady veteran, George Wheel
er, all over the lot, winning in a walk.
The other feature was far more serious
than the loss of one game. Second
Baseman Ivan Howard, the hero and
winner of Fridays game, is lost to the
Angel lineup for the remainder of the
season as a result of injuries he re-
ceived when spiked on the left leg in a
collision with McArdle at first base.
1t was in the first half of the second
inning, five minutes after the game had
been called, that the accident hap
pened. Howard had gone to first to
cover the bag for Beall, who was re-
first. The northern shortstop raced
headlong to the bag, and as he shot
past his foot ripped open a long cash
in Howard's leg. Howard limped to the
bench and was carried off the field. AT
the club house it was found that the
wound was five inches long and very
deep, and Howard was taken to sur
geon, and several stitches were taken
in the cut.
Howard Out of Game
With good care Ivan will be about
again in a couple of weeks, but the
Dillonites have lost the services of
their fastest base runner and one of
their best players for the remainder Of
the season.
The injury to their comrade subdued
the spirits of the locals, and they some
what lost interest in the game from
that time on. They made one rally,
however, in the sixth, pounding Texas
| Stewart for four hits which netted two
runs, and should have counted couple
more. outside of this one inning Stew
art had everything to puzzle the An
| gels. He allowed one hit in the second
| and one in the third, and these two,
with the one bad inning, were all he
gave Berry's boys.
Off nine hits garnered from Wheeler
in the first three innings the Seals
drew seven runs, and from that point
| it was only a question of how close to
that record the locals could climb.
Melchoir's double, wild throw to
third by Delmas to get him, and Mill
er's single to right scored first for the
Seals in the opening session. With
this good start, the Seals kept on. In
the second the hits began to cluster,
and about this time. as usually in
such cases, the runs began to do the
same Tenant walked in the second,
on his bunt and both advanced on
Wheelers wild throw to the right field
bleachers. McArdle singled infeld,
and here Howard was spiked, Nagle
going to second in his place. Stewart
forced Tenant at the plate, and Davis
was out for bunting the third strike.
Melchoir's single scored Berry, and
McArdle, and Zeider's single brought
over the Seal pitcher.
In the third three more were regis
tered thuswise MundOrff and Tenant
doubled in quick succession, scoring
Mundorff. Berry forced Tenant at
third; McArdle was safe when Whee-
Ter loafed a bit on his line drive.
Stewart bounced a drive over Delmas,
and the ball went to centerf1eld. scor-
ing Berry and McArdle. With this
much out of their systems, the north
erners rested a while. Berry and Nc
Ardle singled in the eighth and Berry
went to third and scored when Cod
win let the ball go through him in
left field.
For the locals there was only one
scoring period. That was the sixth.
With one out Beall singled infield and
Hatch went in to run for him.
Koestner doubled to left, sending
Hatch to third, and was himself
caught off second a moment later. Jud
| Smith then doubled to center, scoring
Aalcn' ana DeILlaS repeated, bringing
over DIR. Jud.
The Angels played with a badly
mixed up line. Three pitchers We're in
the game throughout, Nagle playing
second for Howard Wheeler pitching
and Koestner playing right field.
Ross having been moved over to CEN
ter when Daley was put out of the
game by Umpire Irwin in the second
for arguing over a decison at third
base when Pete was called out. Tabu-
