LIVELY TOO LIVELY
FOR THOSE SERAPHS
Husky Oakland Finger Shows Up
Dillon's Men in Handy Fashion
By JOSEPH MURPHY


terday at Freeman's park. because Jack
Lively, the husky Oakland finger. was
too much for them. In the game of
batter against pitcher. Lively won from
the southern sluggers. 1t was awful.
the rude manner in which the heavy
weight mound artist handled those
heretofore bold Angels. Hes showed
them up in a light which made them
look like the merest novices just from
the bushes. Four bingles in nine
frames tells of the success that the
southerners had with his offerings.
The Oaks finally got in the going
after two defeats which might have
been victories for them if things had
broken their way. They went after
the laurels yesterday in finished man
ner and they left nothing undOne to
make it a certainty. Every assistance
was given the HEAVIER, though he made
the chances easy for the fielders.
Criger was selected by Dillon to con-
tinue the good work but he broke the
streak. At that, Criger's work was
deserving of better support than was
given him, as the Angels were bit
off their form, though the error column
does not show exactly some of the poor
plays they made.
PETE DALEY'S OFFENSE
Pete Daley. who is looked upon by
the fans as one of the cleverest men
whom Henry Berry pays a salary. COM
mitted offense in the ninth which no
one would have believed he would ever
do. When there was scant chance
for the Angels TO come through with a
rally he deliberately allowed himself
to get trapped between first and second
bases when his club was -four runs be-
hind.
The Oaks got their runs without
much trouble. They did not need to get
hits. for they got four talIies on
single bingle. That's playing ball for
one team. The Angels played it with
the reverse English.
Another good house turned out at
the Oakland ball park The regulars
from this side dug up the carfare across
along with the admission. and the Oak
land fans were there to fatten up the
attendance.
The Oakland rooters were given an
opportunity to yell early. Criger let
his foot slip right off the reel by allow
ing Swander to take first on four that
the indicator man judged as bad ones
He moved along on an infield out by
Wolverton. Waring allowed a passed
ball and Hogan's long sacrifice fly to
left field allowed Swander to score. 1t
was certainly an easy way of making a
run.
LIVELY TIGHTENS UP
The Angels got bingle in the open
ing frame off Lively. but he frightened
up thereafter and was the boss of the
job.
The Oaks continued to clinch things
and they tied the package in the sec
ond frame and started on their way
home. Criger again started the trouble
by generously passing CutShaw Wares
bunted to Criger, who thought he
caught Cutshaw. but the umpire man
thought otherwise. Two safe and none
down and Mite sent both along on
well placed sacrifice. Lively bunted to
the infield and the ball was returned
to Waring and Cutshaw was declared
out at the plate. The umpire looked
again and found that Mr. Waring had
dropped the ball and he ruled again
He was safe. Then Swander came
through with hit over second and
Wares and Swander scored. 1t was
timely bingle and one which counted
Both pitchers held the swatters down
during the remaining innings Criger
seemed to get better and Lively wa IS
always good. In the ninth the Angels
took a temporary brace, but DaIey's
foolishness killed off their chances
Waring started off with clean hit over
second and then Lively temporarily lost
his bearings by allowing Ross, who
went in to swat for Criger. a base on
balls. Daley forced Ross at second on
groundef and Waring moved along to
third. Mite allowed one of Livelv's
speed burners to get by him and then
Daley started to second. Instead of go
ing along he stopped midway and
played with the fielders. He was run
down. However, Waring scored in the
meantime. Then Bernard was walked
and Howard followed with a clean hit
Wheeler went out, ending the game
