The San Francisco call., 1910-08-22

yesterdays doublcheader with
Vernon and thereby making an
even break of it for the day. Yer
mons sensational morning victory
made the afternoon contest the rub
Der for the series, so both teams tore
into the light with all the determina-
1lon and all the scrapping ability at
their command. The victory OF the
Seals was just one, for Vernon was
outPlayed and outgeneraled from the
time The first man went 10 the bat,
all the last man was officially slowed
away. San Francisco could not have
lost the game unless 1t had cheated II
self.
One OF the seasons banner crowds
was there 10 drink in the excitement
and declare itself in on some OF the
fine sunshine which comes our way
but few times during the han sea SON
Yesterday was just suca 2 day, as the
real fans love TO dream about. Every 4
thing broke right for them, even the I
victory Of the home team. There was
nothing lacking in the setting when
the Seals cantered off the field a vic
torious team.
Vernon was not there in the pnches,
while san Francisco was. This is the
story of the game boiled down. 1t
must also be said that Harry SutOr,
though inclined 10 wildness at times.
pitched 4 remarka bls game Of ballThe
villa gers from the south found them
selves absolutely helpless in the
pinches when Sutor cut loose. In every
instance save one. the men behind him
did their duty, so Il was legitimate
shutout
FFappv Hogan and the members of his
nghting brigade never worked harder
TO win any ball game. \ victory yes
terday afternoon would have been
great feather in Hsppys cap. for he
fully realizes that his team has yet to
take a series from the Seals after
year and half of campaigning here
and on the two southern diamonds.
Hogan's men played good baseball
TOO but they were unfortunate. They
did not run bases with that vim and
snap and daring which coaXes runs
aoross: neither did they play their
game when the Seals got men on the
bases The local batsmen were very
fortunate in chopping their hits
through the infeld. when hits were the
things which counted
The nrst two rounds passed without
specfal incident. but when the third
dawned san Francisco had the decks
cleared for action. Madden opened up
with clean drive TO center field and
without wasting d moment i'm prelim-
mary stalling he got away with steal
Of second Mohler swung on one, eN-
baU went Up in pop fly. Luck was
with the kid and it dropped, a Texas
Lacquer into left. Madden kept on and
registered.
Everybody was on their feet. II
looked like A flock Of runs for the
seals. especially after Tommy Tenant
singled against the right field fence
and MeIthior walked But Witt the
next in line had nothing save a weak

was the limit for the inning
The Seals were still at il in the next

more runs. but the Vernon pitcher
tightened up quickly
Although il was a two run lead for
the Seals. still the game was anybody $
Tor Vernon kept pegging right along
and assumed a dangerous attitude in
nearly every inning. They came mighty

the umpire sent him back on account
IF the ground rules, which say that
two bases is as far as any OF them can

died there, for none of his team mates
could boost him home
some of the fans thought that Sutor
vyas lucky throughout it all, and per-
1,sns 5e did have an odd horseshoe in
his poclxet. but for all that, he pitched
mighty good baseball in the tight
pIaces. His control was none too good
