A baseball game winch buOulu ne
one Of the finest of the year will be
pulled off tomorrow afternoon at 3
O'Clock at the Salem league grounds,
Twenty-fifth and State streets. The
| teams which will do battle are the
I Hubbard Giants and the Salem Sena-
tors. The Senators have twice de-
feated the Hubbard nine this year,
and are now holding second place in
the race for the pennant. Since
strengthening their lineup several
weeks ago, the Giants have been win
ming every game in which they played
They twice defeated Woodburn with
in one week and have once beaten
the Albany Colts.
Their battery, composed of Doug
las and Sherer, who are said to hail
from the Portland Bankers League,
have been doing some fine trimming
during the last three games. The
home team" needs no Introduction
to the local fans. Allegaert, who
struck out seven men at Albany last
Sunday, will play against Douglas,
the Bankers southpaw, who famed
four men in last Sundays game at
Woodburn. Allegaert has pitched all
but three innings this season. Jer-
man twirled three innings in a game
with WOodburn, and, except for these
three innings Alegaert has pitched
every ball that has been heayed in
league game this season in which the
Senators have taken part. Jones
will be relieved tomorrow by Baker,
Jerman's new catcher. Baker did
well behind the bat last Sunday, and
also handled the bat with good eff
feet.
If both Salem and Woodburn win
their games tomorrow and next Sun
day, and then the Senators defeat
the Woodburn Giants in the third
game, an extra game will be neces-
sary to decide the championship of
the valley. If. however. WOodburn
. loses at Albany tomorrow, and the
Salem nine wins over the Hubbard
bunch, WoOdburn and Salem will be
tied for the pennant Another win
ming for Salem and another loss for
Woodburn would tie these two teams
If Salem wins twice and Woodburn
wins once, the Senator's will then
head the percentage column. Wood
burn plays Albany at Albany tomor-
row, Salem plays Albany at Salem
next Sunday, and the Woodburn
Giants and the Senator's will close
the season the Salem diamond August
20.
Neither Hubbard nor Albany have
nhanpn pf rip,
this year, as they are now too far be-
hind, and there are only three games
left to play. Both teams, however,
naturally will try to win as many
games as possible before the close of
the season.
Tomorrows game should prove
one of the best of the season. The
weather man has promised perfect
baseball weather, and a big crowd is
expected out to witness one of the
three last games of the season.
Another drawing feature of tomor-
rows game will be a desire on the
part of local fans to get a glimpse of
Third Baseman Calvert, of the Hub
bard team, who is the only man to
make an unassisted triple play in the
Willamette Valley League. He will
cover third base for the Giants in
tomorrow's game. Salem's lineup
for tomorrow's contest will be as fol-
lows. Allegaert p, Baker C, Goliath
lb, Moray 2b, Porterfeld 3b, Lee SIS,
West cf, Cernik rf, Jones If.
Alec. Cheyne. Of Portland, who has
reputation of being one of the best
indicator men on the coast, will UNI
pire tomOrrow's game here. Jim !
mie' Richardson will go to Albany to
umpire the game between Woodburn
and Albany at that place.
