WIN BY SCORE rs
YAK PITCHER WEAKENS IN LAT
TER PART OF CONTEST
YESTERDAY.

When Southpaw Jorstai-call it
Horsted-sprung his compass in the
latter part of yesterdays game and
lost the exact location of the plate the
Buckarooes took advantage of his be-
wilderment and broke up hitherto
alright contest, making it three
straight against Yakima. The final
score was to but that score fails
TO Indicate the battle which ensued
for some seven innings.
1t was a duelling match between
Jorstad and Osborne up until the last
and for awhile things shaped them
selves to indicate another narrow
margin defeat for the chief. But
when, with the score to for Yak
ina, Jorstad walked in two scores,
the hard luck seemed to be on the
other side.
For four innings and a half the
game was a runless affair, each OF the
twirlers pulling out of as many holes
as they got into. But in the last of
the fourth. Pembroke blundeoned
the first offering Jorstad delivered
Tor roundtrip passage, the ball
soaring into the left field bleachers.
But for a freak of fortune, Coen
would have duplicated the blow. Fol-
lowing Pembroke to the plate he al
so met the first ball pitched with a
healthy swing and the bal winged its
way over the same course as Penis
homer but struck the projecting top
of post and was good for only two
bags. Even at that it seemed that he
would score during the inning for he
was sacrificed to third. However, on
Barklage's hard hit ball at pitcher. he
was thrown out at home.
In the seventh with two down and
one on. Krause broke into the home
run habit. swatting one of Osborne's
groove balls over the center field
fence Thus when Pendleton came to
in the last of the seventh, Yakima was
one to the good. Briggs began Jor-
stad's downfall by waiting for -four
wide ones and Pembroke contributed
with a two-base blow, sending Brigg'
20 third Coen fouled ont hur osborne
and Naughton both drew passes and
Briggs was walked home. Barklagt

popped out. Peterson then drew the
fourth pass OF the inning and Penn
brooke walked in for the tally that
gave the Bucks another lead. varian,
thereafter flew out and the inning
ended.
In the last of the eighth, Jorstad
got his bumps and four more of Lo-
delrs men crossed the rubber. Lo-
dell himself opened with a single to
right and was sacrificed along by
Briggs. Pembroke, thereupon beat
out an infieli hit, and Lodell finish
ed the circuit when Fuller let the
throw get through him. Coen drew
four wide ones. Osborne flew out to
right and Naughton filled the bags
BY walking for the third time. Bark
lage laid slow one down to Ford
and his speed carried him to first
ahead of the ball. Pembroke scored
on the play and Coen came home
when Fuller again dropped the throw
to first. Peterson, who had been rob-
bed of pretty hit in the first, deliv-
cred a blow to left center. scoring
Naughton and Barklage was caught
between third and home for the third
out.
Yakima scored her third marker in
the final frame when Taylor clouted
out his fourth successive hit of the
game and came home on Jorstads
two-sacker. Ford and Krause
grounded out and Fuller finished the
game by tanning the breezes for his
third strikeout.
