The onward rush of the Oaks con-
tinued at Recreation park yesterday
afternoon. while our unfortunate Seals
were being trampled upon by the Beav-
ers once more.
These very men whom we were ex-
tending our sympathy to a couple of
years ago tackled on the seventh
straight victory in a row. and the
second over the Senator'S. They did
everything that high class ball club
could have been expected to do. and
nobody was at all surprised at the
result
They took stranglehold upon the
Senator'S early in the game, and they
never lost their grip. Now and then
the tossers of the capital city did loom
one spasm, the eighth, none of them
came within whistling distance of the
plate
IN 4E .0LDEN WAY
Jack Killilay pitched bali like he
pitched last season, when the Oaks
gal1oped in with the pennant. He was
bit unsteady now and then, bat when
IT. came to the pinches he knew just
what to shoot at his opponents. and
when he did unload his stuff his oppo-
ments knew that they were cornered.
The Oaks played ball just like they
played the day before, and that was
good enough for any fan to gaze upon.
They took advantage of the pepper and
the ginger and they never wasted an
: opportunity TO do a lot of good for
themselves They all backed their
pitcher up when he needed support
and this gave him plenty of confidence.
so he did not worry in the least.
The Senator'S did not play as good
ball as they played against the Seals
last week. They were weaker in the
field, on the bases and with the bat
They grabbed hits enough. at that
more than their opponents. in fact
but they were unable to clout the ball
when a hit would have meant some
thing.
An INTERESTING GAME
It was an interesting game. never
theless, and it furnished plenty of eX-
element for all those who looked ii
over. The errors did not amount to
much Oakland won because its MEM
hers. were able to .fathom the offerings
Of the Sacramento pitchers when they
least expected an assault.
The first two Innings failed to bring
about results. but the aggressive spirit
Of the Oaks asserted itself in the third.
Guest .droye a single to right and
Rohrer bunted him along. Killiiay
famed. for the second out and things
did not look at all bright for the trans
. bay; tossers.
i But they made the best of their
chances. and the result netted them
J: three tallies right off the reel. .Schirm
= shot neat single into center after
E.eard had walked. This brought Guest
home from second Jack Ness made
-sgood with: two cushion slam against
the. center field fence. This wallop.
CHASED the other two oaks in and the
game was practically cinched.
1EtIIE 1T STRONG
But they made it good and strong by
going. for another one in round four
Zacher responded with a. bfngler to
eft and Cook planted a double bagger
fHto center. This convinced Manager
NolveJton that Pitcher STROUD was not
doing his duty as he should, SO he re-
called the big slabster and put Munsell
to work
The new man was up against tough
:gare with two on and. nobody down,
but:he Jared well. figuring everything
Guest slipped q single through the in
+ field and Zacher arrived. Cook being
: THROWN out at the plate.
For five innings. it looked a $ though
l<.fllilay. would make it a clean shut
q 3t but the Senators saved themselves
@.IEom this disgrace by annexing their
-,lonesome. tally in the sixth. Munsell
ScJ a. nice hit and Young fouled out to
Rohrer- Lewis. hit to right field and
k1llhay got a bit uneasy and passed
Moran filing up the sacks. Van Buren
came through with the slam which put
Aunsen over, but Kenworthy and Hal
imam died easy and the rally ended
SACRAMENTO'S CHANCE
Sacramento had another good chance
in the ninth. With the bases filled
and two down Jimmy Lewis ap-
preached. Any sort of a hit would
have meant a couple Of tallies and
= Two hagSer would have tied up the score
Jimmy tried hard enough. but the best
ne had was grounder down to Guest
WHO quickly whipped the ball over to
Eeard and the game was over. Score:
