Browning Driven Off Hill and
Sutor, Who Succeeds
Him, Fares Poorly

PORTLAND, Aug. 26.-Portland got
back into the winning column today,
defeating san Francisco, to 0. The
visiting pitchers all looked alike to
the Beavers, who showed no great
partiality in dividing the hitting.
Browning donated two of Portland's
scores, and to stop further damage
Sutor was put in. Portland took three
runs off him. Gregg pitched a good
game throughout. Score:

tried little fancy work on Spiesman
and the Senator slammed one out that
called for two bases, mainly because
Carlisle bobbled it after a single had
been written down. No damage fol-
lowed, however, because Whalen's bunt
spelled doom for Spiesman between
second and third, and Shinn's single
was not backed up by effective clout-
ing. In the eighth the Villagers tried
hard, but could not connect. Then
the scorekeeper wrote the following:
Los Angeles herald., 1910-08-27

Brown was the first Villager to sue
cessfully solve Whalen's Whiffers, but
the best he could do was to reach
second on a sacrifice. The Whale kept
bending them over in approved style,
and no one was able to negotiate a
clout that would bring Brown along
home.
With goose eggs, both as to hits
and runs, staring at them for the first
four innings, the Senators took llk-
ing to Brackenridge's boWlers in the
fifth and broke up the game. Briggs
and Burns had both been retired be-
fore Spiesman opeend the fireworks
with Il two-saCker to left. Even then
business appeared to be normal, for
Whalen. who was next on the batting
list, is not noted as a club artist. How
ever, James was determined TO win his
own game, and met one on the nose
for q Journey to center. Willett winged
the pill home and Spiesman would
have been out by several feet had not
Brown let the ball get away from him
and roll to the stand, Whalen taking
time by the forelock and reaching third
on the play
Even then one run would not have
been so bad, but since they had the to-
boggan CREASED the Senators decided to
give Vernon a long ride. Shtnn came
along and laid a hard single toward
Burrell, the Villagers baseman making
a nice stop and a bum heaVe TO first.
Fisher stopped the ball, but that was
about all, for Whalen scored and Shinn
roasted on the A bag without bother
ing.any one. Shinn ambled to second
on the first opening, and when Van
Buren, slammed a hard one at Brack-
enridge he beat it for the plate. Brack
tried his best to stop the ball, but
when it slammed against his shin the
pill took notion to join the billiard
class and caromed far into right field.
Van va held at first and Heister re-
lieved the anxiety by slapping at a trio
he could not reach.
