Walter Maggie took a supreme delight
in moving down the Seals heavy bat
ters yesterday and in whitewashing
the league leaders. Ping Bodie, the
terror, could not get to first base to
save his life, while Lewis, Berry and
McArdle were as helpless as any of
the others. Eastley was the only Seal
WHO could get a hit off the Judge, and
his brace of two-baggers did not
amount to anything more than to keep
Maggie from pitching no-hit, no-run
game Walter is in his best form now
and opposing batters have fat chance
of doing anything serious with his de-
livery. Dillon certainly has classy
pitching staff now, with Thorsen,
Nagle Tozer and Castleton taking reg
ular turns and winning nearly every
game they pitch. Then there is Criger,
Delhi and Klein ready to take a turn
any time they are needed.
ToZer and Castleton should win their
games from the Seals today and make
it six in seven for the Angels. Barring
that awful fluke last Thursday the
Angels should have made a clean sweep
of the series. In that game the Seals
came from behind and overcame b
to 1 score against them and won out.
Rotten fielding caused it, and it would
be impossible for the Angels to make
as many errors in one inning again this
season unless they really tried to see
how poorly they could play. The An
gels go north again after the series
next week with Vernon and Dillon
wants to take his boys on the road in
first place. BY grabbing the double
header today the Angels have chance
of overtaking all other rivals, and If
they keep on playing as they are now
it is a cinch that they will go away in
first place.
Johnny Mooney, manager of fighters,
fight promoter and baseball scout,
stopped over in Los Angeles yesterday
on his way back to Boston from the
big fight. Johnny brought Honey Mel
lody to Los Angeles while he was
champion and for a long time had a
big string of scrappers under his man
agerial wing. He is matchmaker for
the Armory club at Boston, but the
season is closed there until September,
when the fight game will open up
again.
Charles Van Loan dropped off the
Owl yesterday morning to pass q
month with old friends in Los Angeles.
Van is sporting editor of the New
York Journal, one of the Hearst pa
pers, and came west to do" the big
ngnt at Keno. Wnlle out InlS way
he decided upon taking his summer
vacation here and says it is soothing
to the mind and eye to be back in this
tropical cline once more. Van took
in the game yesterday and said that
Hen Berry should take his Angel band
on a tour of the east this fall, pre-
dieting that the boys would make all
big league rivals play some ball to
beat them.
After seeing Delmas play yesterday
and every other day this season, ii
is difficult to believe that such classy
shortstop could ever make an error.
He covered miles of territory, accept
ing many extremely difficult chances.
and handling all of them without a
bobble.. Del is also getting back his
batting eye, which means that he will
drive home many runs for the Angels
before the season is ended. Del had
one bad day during this series, but he
more than makes up for it nine days
in ten.
Jack johnson says he is willing to
give Jeff return match Labor day If
the big boy wants it, but expresses
