with two men out and three men
on bases Hall, OF Tacoma tagged
out one of the McKenna players
between first and second. but the
umpire, while standing within
four or five feet of the play, call
ed the McKenna player safe,
which resulted in two runs for
McKenna. Only four hits were
made off Crane pitching for the
Standard Oil, while eight hits
were made off Olson for Me-

was Halls home run with two
men on bases in the first inning,
